As a prepatory step towards an edited-volume publication, this workshop assembles chapter contributors from across Europe with the aim to harmonize multi-disciplinary approaches to studying state sovereignty. The event is based on the 2021 Graduate Workshop "Competing Sovereignties". Through the lenses of "practices" and "narratives", our research posits that sovereignty as a force is exercises through words and deeds over diverse actors at various scales within social and political hierachies. Organised by PhD candidates Elia Bescotti and Jon Matlack, this workshop intends to establish a unitied approach between the editors and contributors of the volume. To that end, faculty and phd researchers of the Leibniz ScienceCampus, the GS OSES, and members of IOS are invited to attend as observers and commentators to our discussion. After each panel, a 30 minute discussion will follow, during which outside participants may also ask questions. Please email Jon or Elia (matlack@ios-regensburg.de, bescotti@ios-regensburg.de) to register to participate, either for Friday 18.11 or Saturday 19.11. Due to room constraints, only up to 10-12 outside participants from among the UR and IOS research communities can be accomodated.
The programm is available here.
