CALL FOR PARTICIPATION Sociology of Peace and Conflict CONTEXTS AND CHALLENGES PHILIPPINE SOCIOLOGICAL SOCIETY 2015 NATIONAL CONFERENCE 15-17 OCTOBER 2015 MINDANAO STATE UNIVERSITY-ILIGAN INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY VISIST PHILIPPINESOCIOLOGY.COM FOR MORE INFORMATION SUGGESTED PANEL THEMES SOCIOLOGY OF PEACE AND CONFLICT CONTEXTS AND CHALLENGES MINDANAO STATE UNIVERSITY-ILIGAN INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY 15-17 OCTOBER 2015 To make sense of intractable and emerging conflicts in contemporary societies is one of the biggest challenges sociologists face today. Whether the context is Mamasapano or the West Philippine Sea, an urban household or a rural village, within Philippine institutions or cosmopolitan spaces, the 2015 PSS National Conference aims to shed light as well as interrogate the complexities of peace and conflict. The conference welcomes theoretical, methodological and empirical papers that deepen and expand our understanding of the sociological dimensions of peace and social conflict from various levels of analysis – household, village, region, nation, and the world; involving different actors – individual, state and nonstate actors; and from a range of sociological perspectives. Critical reflections from peace practitioners are also welcome. Visit http://philippinesociology.com/national-conference/ for instructions on abstract submission, travel grants and more information.
