Dear
Colleagues,
4S Honolulu
2023: Call for
Open Panels —
Deadline March
17th
https://www.4sonline.org/meeting/
The Society
for Social
Studies of
Science (4S)
is an
international,
nonprofit
association
founded in
1975 that
fosters
interdisciplinary
and engaged
scholarship in
social studies
of science,
technology,
and medicine
(a field often
referred to as
STS).
This year,
4S will be
holding its
annual meeting
at the
Honolulu
Convention
Center in
Hawai’i,
November 8-11,
2023. This
year’s theme
is “Sea, Sky,
and Land:
Engaging in
Solidarity in
Endangered
Ecologies.”
We are now
accepting
proposals for
Open
Panels
until March
17.
Open panels
are a way to
articulate the
research of
colleagues and
allow the
formation of
new networks
around issues
that are
central to the
field of STS.
An open panel
proposal
consists of an
abstract of up
to 250 words,
including a
brief
discussion of
your
contribution
to the field
and to the
theme of the
2023
conference, if
relevant.
Proposals for
open panels
should be
submitted by
17th March
2023. If
accepted, open
panels will be
included in
the general
call for
papers that
will open on
10th April
2023. At that
time, authors
will be able
to submit
their papers
for one or
more panels.
The open
panel chairs
will have
primary
responsibility
for the
selection of
abstracts
submitted to
their panels.
By submitting
a proposal,
the chairs
will be in
charge of
reviewing
abstracts,
chairing the
sessions, and
communicating
with
participants.
An open panel
can comprise
up to three
sessions of
five papers
each (i.e. a
maximum of 15
papers in
total). If a
discussant is
included, then
the session
could have up
to four
papers. The
Program
Committee
reserves the
right to make
the final
decision on
which papers
will be
included in
each panel. If
you have
questions,
please email mee...@4sonline.org.
We look
forward to
your
participation!
