Call for Papers

STS Meeting in Stockholm

May 2-4, 2012

Convener: Division of History of Science and Technology, KTH

Dear STS scholars in Sweden and beyond,

We would like to invite you to the next STS-meeting, which will take place in Stockholm, May 2-4, 2012. In the tradition of STS meetings in earlier years, we seek to bring together the diverse and dispersed community of STS, to provide room for presenting current research, exchanging ideas, discussing projects, and networking.

We encourage submission of proposals for individual papers and entire panels. Thematically open, we welcome contributions from all STS-related fields, from history, sociology, and philosophy of science, technology, and environment, to provide the broadest spectrum of STS-related research in and beyond Sweden.

Moreover, we seek suggestions for alternative formats. These could be, among others, roundtables debating the hotspots issues in the field and/or of public interest or author-meets-critic sessions on recent publication.

To be as inclusive as possible we plan to have a bilingual meeting and ask for presentations held in Swedish or in English; suggestions for whole sessions should be monolingual either in Swedish or in English.

Please send your proposal (no more than 400 words and containing your institutional affiliation) to stsstockholm@gmail.com<mailto:stsstockholm@gmail.com> by February 15, 2012. Inquiries are also welcome at this address.
