ESEE
2007: Integrating Natural and Social Sciences for Sustainability
5-8 June 2007, UFZ - Centre for Environmental Research in Leipzig,
Germany
The
European Society for Ecological Economics (ESEE), in co-operation
with the German associations for ecological economics VÖÖ
and VÖW, invite you to meet in Leipzig for the 7th international
conference.
The conference will explore contemporary scientific approaches for
putting the concept of Sustainable Development into research and
into practice, and it will focus on bridging natural and social
sciences. It will address sustainability topics such as loss of
biodiversity, human vulnerability to global change and water problems
on all geographical and institutional levels. The conference aims
to contribute to a better understanding of societal and natural
processes and their interaction by integrating scientific methodologies
to overcome the shortcomings of disciplinary and multi-disciplinary
approaches. Impediments to inter- and transdisciplinary research
will be examined and new research concepts for sustainability identified.
Note
that the registration for ESEE 2007 is open now! Come and join us
when we talk about "Integrating Natural and Social Sciences for
Sustainability" in Leipzig, Germany, from 5-8th June 2007. Keynote
speakers include Elinor Ostrom, Malte Faber, Dick Norgaard, Inge
Roepke, Clive Spash, and Carl Folke. The first deadline for submitting
symposia is 20 September, the deadline for submitting abstracts
and papers is 20 November. Have a look at www.esee-leipzig2007.org
and think about your contribution!

CALL
FOR PAPER FOR A SESSION on Karl William Kapp (1910-1976)
to be submitted to ESEE 2007 conference (Leipzig 5-8 June 2007,
www.esee-leipzig2007.org)
The
works and ideas of the German institutional economist K.W. Kapp
(1910-1976) are still very topical. His contributions on economic
development and environmental policy are strongly interlinked and
show the need of such integration for any reasonable strategy for
sustainable development. His approach already contained most of
what today is described as Ecological Economics, including the refusal
of reductionism and of commensurability along with its many implications.
This session, by presenting original research on Kapp's works, aims
at increasing awareness of this great economist among ecological
economists and at stimulating direct reading of his writings. ANYONE
INTERESTED IN is kindly asked to contact Tommaso Luzzati (tluzzati@ec.unipi.it)
as soon as possible. The deadline for submitting a 2pages abstract
is 25 August 2006.

3-5 June 2007, Leipzig
Ahead
of the seventh ESEE conference in Leipzig Germany, a special two
and a half day workshop will be organized for and by PhD students

on interdisciplinary science and the prospects of Ecological Economics,
(3) provide a forum for students to share experiences and stimulate
collaboration. The workshop's programme includes lectures, group
discussions and a field trip in the vicinity of Leipzig. Prof. Richard
Norgaard, Dr. Sigrid Stagl and Dr. Martin Drechsler will inspire
and provoke discussions with their presentations. More info on this
exciting event will be available on the ESEE 2007 conference web
