Gendered Innovations in the Social Sciences: Call for papers

What impact does women's limited presence in key fields of research have upon our capacity to grapple with social and political change? And if gender is ignored as an analytic category, can the social sciences make a meaningful contribution to understanding or resolving issues of gender inequality in society?

This conference will be held at the Australian National University, Canberra 7-9 November 2016. The conference aims to compare the status and impact of gender analysis and feminist research in different social science disciplines, including philosophy.

Keynotes:
Laurel Weldon, Distinguished Professor of Political Science and Director of the Purdue Policy Research Institute at Purdue University
Paul Dalziel, Professor of Economics and Deputy Director of the Agribusiness and Economics Research Unit, Lincoln University, New Zealand
Catriona Mackenzie, Professor of Philosophy and Director of the Macquarie University Research Centre for Agency, Values and Ethics.

Abstracts of approximately 200 words are to be submitted online by 21 July 2016 – access the full call for papers at http://genderinstitute.anu.edu.au/news/call-papers-gendered-innovations-social-sciences
