CBP hosts the PESON II workshop

CBP hosts the PESON II workshop – Professional Knowledge in Economies and Societies the 19th – 20th of May

PESON II – Professional Knowledge in Economies and Societies

Room: PH407
The Political and Economic Sociology Network (PESON) comprises the Copenhagen Business School, the University of Sheffield, and the University of Warwick. With support from GARNET ‘Global Governance, Regionalisation and Regulation’: The Role of the EU’, PESON II organizes this workshop.
The workshop is concerned with how knowledge about economic and social systems is generated, transmitted, and codified among those who claim to have authority and expertise. The presentation will be short memos (6-10 pages) on a project underway or at the early stages of development.
This workshop provides a forum for exploring ideas rather than receiving criticism on post-fieldwork results. A select number of Masters students will be attending the workshop to observe and ask questions.
