Sustaining Com...

http://www.capri.cgiar.org/caprinews/2010/01/call-for-abstracts-sustaining-commons.htm

The 13th Biennial Conference of the International Association for the Study
of the Commons (IASC) will be held in Hyderabad, India from January 10th to
14th, 2011. The theme for the 2011 Conference is Sustaining Commons:
Sustaining our Future. The Conference is being held in South Asia for the
first time; and in a departure from the past, will be hosted by a
practitioner organization - Foundation for Ecological
Security<http://fes.org.in/>(FES). The Conference is not only a
platform for furthering scholarship and
debates centered around Commons, but also a space where practitioners,
policy makers and researchers from across the world enrich the collective
understanding on common property resources and identify areas and measures
to inform policy and programmatic action as well as guide future research.

The Conference will deal with physical common resources such as Forests,
Grazing resources, Protected Areas, Water Resources, Fisheries, Coastal
Commons, Lagoon Commons, Irrigation Systems, Livestock and Commons as well
as New Commons such as Information Commons, Cultural Commons, Genetic
Resources, Patents, Climate, etc. The above subjects would be captured under
the following sub-themes:

   - The Commons, Poverty and Social Exclusion;
   - Governance of the Commons: Decentralization, Property Rights, Legal
   Framework, Structure and Organization;
   - The Commons: Theory, Analytics and Data;
   - Globalisation, Commercialisation and the Commons;
   - Managing the Global Commons: Climate Change and other Challenges;
   - Managing Complex Commons (Lagoons, Protected Areas, Wetlands, Mountain
   Areas, Rangelands, Coastal Commons);
   - New Commons (Digital Commons, Genetic Commons, Patents, Music,
   Literature etc);

Please note that the papers may cut across more than one of the seven
sub-themes. The illustrative sub-theme questions and topics below are
intended to help contributors and are in no way binding.

Abstracts are invited for papers, panels, posters, and videos. More
information is available on the conference
website<http://iasc2011.fes.org.in/index.php>
.

Deadline for Abstracts: March 31, 2010
