***Apologies for cross-posting!*** Dear all,
The deadline to submit abstracts <https://www.apsanet.org/annualmeeting> for the American Political Science Association's (APSA) annual conference is Tuesday, January 18, 2022! The Environmental Politics and Theory Related Group <https://www.apsanet.org/RESOURCES/Related-Groups> welcomes proposals on any topic in environmental politics and theory, especially those related to this year's conference theme: “Rethink, Restructure, and Reconnect: Towards a Post-Pandemic Political Science." You can find our group's CFP below, as well as here <https://connect.apsanet.org/apsa2022/related-group-calls/>. Even if you do not plan on submitting a paper proposal for the APSA conference this year, we encourage anyone with interests in environmental politics and theory to consider joining our related group. You can find easy instructions for how to submit an abstract to the APSA conference and how to join the EP&T Related Group here <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1bsAYbBDn7-7q2dYCwgLjv5143h6hGH6W57Ha52roUoc/edit?usp=sharing>. We also encourage current EP&T members to renew their affiliation with our related group to help maintain our community of scholars! Just remember that an APSA membership is required in order to be a member of any APSA related group. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch with me (witla...@colostate.edu <mailto:witla...@colostate.edu>) or Gregory Koutnik ((gkout...@hamilton.edu <mailto:gkout...@hamilton.edu>). Here’s hoping we will be able to meet in-person in Montreal in Fall of 2022! Best, Mary Witlacil and Gregory Koutnik Environmental Politics and Theory Co-Chairs --- 2022: Environmental Politics and Theory Group: CFP The Environmental Politics and Theory Related Group welcomes paper proposals on a wide range of environmental issues from diverse theoretical perspectives. We especially look forward to proposals that embrace the invitation of APSA’s 2022 theme to “Rethink, Restructure, and Reconnect.” Proposals that take a step back to reflect on the broader state of environmental politics and theory scholarship as well as the current state and trajectory of environmental politics, and that suggest new ways of thinking about fundamental issues of environmental politics, will be of special interest. What prevailing assumptions, arguments, and frameworks are in need of rethinking in order for environmental scholarship and politics to move forward? In what ways might political, economic, and social systems need fundamental restructuring to address the environmental crises of our time? Moreover, might the academic disciplines that study environmental politics and theory need to be rethought and restructured as well to meet the challenges of environmental scholarship in a time of crisis? Finally, in what ways might scholars reconnect with the world of practice and political action, and how might practitioners of environmental politics reconnect with neglected constituencies, movements, and ways of thinking (including, but not limited to, indigenous and post-colonial ones)? In keeping with APSA’s goal of increasing diversity, inclusion, and access throughout the profession, we also strongly encourage proposals from scholars who belong to historically underrepresented groups, especially those from minority racial and ethnic communities, low-income and working-class backgrounds, non-Anglophone countries, and the LGBTQ+ community. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "gep-ed" group.
