Deadline for paper proposals: 1st November 2012 via: http://new.ecprnet.eu/Joint%20Sessions/InformationPaperProposal.aspx



Recent decades have seen important research on the instruments, institutions and politics of environmental policy, often in a comparative perspective. In international relations, the creation of ever new environmental regimes has been well explored. What is missing, however, is a systematic inquiry into the repercussions of its growing environment-related activities on the discipline’s understanding of the state. This workshop aims at creating bridges between environmental policy analysis and political theory to narrow this gap and develop a research agenda.
