British Sociological Association (BSA) Annual Conference 2008

Mar 28, 2008 - Mar 30, 2008,
University of Warwick, Warwick, England United Kingdom

The theme of this conference invites engagement with contemporary debates about the relationship between the natural and the social and the ways in which the nature-culture distinction is being challenged by developments within both social theory and empirical research.

A key aim of the conference will be to explore the social and sociological implications of recent developments – within and without sociology - which challenge the boundaries of the natural and the social in very profound ways. Such a challenge poses questions about how we understand human society and its relations to the world of nature as well as serious moral and political questions for human society.

Sociological responses to these challenges are multifaceted but remain fragmented within the various sub-fields of the discipline – for example studies of the body and emotions have drawn attention to the ways in which humans are of both culture and nature while the emergent interest in the human-animal relationship constructs animals as part of culture.

This conference aims to generate a conversation between different substantive areas of sociology and across disciplinary boundaries in order to illuminate the special contribution of sociologists both to how we understand human societies and to the complex questions facing them in the 21st century.

Developing Asia: Past, Present and Future

Mar 28, 2008 - Mar 29, 2008,
Kobe Gakuin University, Kobe, Japan

Development¡± is one of the most ubiquitous yet least understood concepts of our age. It is something all governments claim to be engaged in and is considered desirable by scholars, activists, policymakers and laypeople alike. Yet it is also a highly contested term. For some, development is simply a matter of economic growth. Others maintain that it must entail improving life expectancy, literacy, education levels, and access to resources. Others yet, disillusioned by the results of development initiatives, have rejected development altogether, equating it with a self-serving aid industry that entraps the poor in a vicious cycle of dependency. Yet critics argue these ¡°post-development¡± theorists merely replicate earlier doctrines of development and have themselves become part of the problem they wish to transcend.

This conference intends to gather together scholars, practitioners of development, and others interested in or associated with the theory and practice of development to debate and discuss its implications and varied meanings. The conference will explore development in Asian contexts both in its objective and constructivist senses. That is, it will examine how societies and nations have developed over time and how experts or trustees have attempted to develop these same societies and nations. Has true development been occurring in Asia? Is it possible to direct development? What have been the results of past attempts to develop Asian societies or nations? Should the concept of development be retained or discarded? These are a few key questions the conference aims to debate. Finally, it is hoped that the event will foster discussion on the future of development in Asia.

Academy of International Business 35th Annual Conference

Mar 28, 2008 - Mar 29, 2008,
University of Portsmouth Portsmouth, Hampshire United Kingdom

The theme of the conference – the challenges to international business – captures the breadth of changes that are taking place in the international business environment. As one example, the increasing recognition that man's activities are a cause of climate change in particular, and natural environmental changes in general, means that international business faces challenges on a global scale.

Besides the changes in the physical environment, there has been a resurgence of a number of sources of risk, notably global and country-specific risks (terrorism, re-nationalisation and the use of strategic industries such as oil and gas for political purposes) that many observers might have thought had abated. In short, international business is operating in an era of unprecedented challenge.
