The ESS executive committee is currently busy trying to match authors
with entries for the ISA Compendium. We are also looking for more
people to volunteer to fill some open slots.
Please respond to the following e-mail address if you are interested:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
In particular, we are looking for people to write the following 8 entries:
# IR Theory and the environment
# Gender and environment
# OECD countries and the environment
# India and the environment
# International Environmental Regimes
# Regional governance to address environmental problems
# International regulation and Ozone Depletion
# International regulation of ocean pollution
-------------------------------------
As part of the ISA's Compendium Project (for more information, please
visit http://www.isanet.org/compendium/) the Environmental Studies
Section seeks authors for entries in the ESS-organized section of the
project. The topics listed below, subject to approval by the
peer-review process within the Compendium project, will be seeking
authors. All authors will be chosen from within the Environmental
Studies section membership. If you are not an ESS member you are
encouraged to join: http://www.isanet.org/memberservices.html.
Essays for the compendium will be approximately 10,000 words long,
and will be peer-reviewed. The hope is for most essays to be drafted
by the time of the 2008 ISA conference.
If you are interested in writing an entry for the ESS-organized part
of the Compendium, here is what to do:
a) send a message to the following email ONLY
([EMAIL PROTECTED] ) before Thursday, May 10th,
indicating your interest. [The Executive Committee of the ESS will serve
as the selection committee.] Indicate your name and current position
(e.g. PhD Candidate at the University of Chicago, or Assistant
Professor at Colby College). We encourage people of all academic
ranks and affiliations to apply to write. You are also welcome to
apply to write as a duo or trio; just indicate the relevant info for
all people in our group in your message.
b) in this message indicate up to three entries you would be
interested in writing (you will not be chosen to write more than one,
unless we communicate with you otherwise), ranked in order of interest.
c) include as well a list up up to 6 relevant publications in the
BODY of your e-mail-- do NOT send your entire c.v. or attachments;
simply list 6 or fewer publications -- that suggest your general
background for the issues you are interested in writing about. You
may also include a *short* paragraph about your interest in and
background relevant to each entry you list.
d) Indicate as well if you would be interested in presenting a draft
of your essay on a "compendium panel" at the 2008 ISA conference.
[Compendium panels will not count against other ISA rules about
number of appearances on panels at the conference.]
