Summer school 2007 The territorial dimension of social policies |
|
The ESPAnet Summer School is open to doctoral students who have recently started their research project and feel a need for a broader introduction to the territorial dimension of social policies from a comparative perspective. At the summer school they are introduced in the territorial dimensions of social policies and the ongoing processes of change with a specific focus on the consequences of these processes in a comparative perspective. Participants take part in lectures and discussions. They also present their projects and get comments from staff and other students. The Summer School is targeted at PhD-students who have started, or are about to start, a project on a social policy issue related to its territorial dimension, and who feel a need to broaden and deepen their understanding of how welfare states and social policies are undergoing territorially relevant changes. Lectures will tackle with the origin of the changes, their aims, principles and practices, as well as the challenges they are bringing about. These issues will be addressed from both theoretically and empirically diversified approaches, which aim at providing the participants with an overview on methods, designs and pitfalls of comparative social policy research, in relation to the territorial dimension of social policy change as well as of the actors involved in these processes. Deadline for applications is 30th April 2007. |
