On Feb 23 & 24, we were happy to welcome participants to our GWO* workshop “Resising Business-As-Usual,” both online and on-site at the JKU Linz to our workshop. Inspired by the conversations and the burning dilemmas on the nexus between social justice and the climate crisis, we want to share a short recap on the workshop, the formats we experimented with, and a recording of the panel discussion with you here.
From February 22-23, we – Laura Dobusch (JKU Linz), Dide Van Eck (Utrecht School of Governance), Katharina Kreissl (JKU Linz), and I – are excited to host a hybrid workshop on “Resisting Business-As-Usual” at the JKU Linz, sponsored by Gender, Work & Organization. While the workshop promises vibrant discussions on burning dilemmas at the nexus between social justice and the climate crisis for accepted participants, you still have the opportunity to listen to our fantastic panel.

From April 26-27, 2019, the 10th Sociology of Conventions Workshop with the topic “Conventions@Work” took place at University of Innsbruck. Together with Bianca Schoenherr, Katharina Zangerle provides a summary of key discussion points of the workshop over at the blog “Économie des conventions“:
Variety in regard to disciplines (e.g., Sociologist, Economists, Historians), origin (e.g., France, Switzerland, Germany, France and Austria), empirical interests (e.g., from migration, health, the digital, social policy, science, farming, to intellectual property regulations and information security…), but connected through the common theoretical perspective, characterized the audience composed of about 35 scientists. Besides, it was the workshops format, which allowed the presenters adequate time (45 minutes) to make clear their arguments and respond to the assigned discussants’ and audiences’ responses of different sorts, that triggered the discussion. The following overview serves to communicate current developments in the community, but makes no account to be complete.
