Development Studies Association: "The
Rising Powers and Development Post-2015"
 
We are pleased to announce a call for
contributions and papers to a Rising Powers Study Group workshop on Friday 31st
October 2014, and a panel session at the Annual Conference of the Development
Studies Association on Saturday 1st October 2014. 
 
The workshop will be held at the Open
University London Centre (Camden) and run from 1-6pm (tbc). The workshop will
comprise a plenary, papers, short country case studies and discussion sessions.
Places will be booked in advance, with preference given to DSA members. We hope
to organise a reception at the end of the workshop to formally launch the DSA
Rising Powers Study Group.
 
The DSA Annual Conference runs all day on
Saturday 1st November 2014 at the Institute of Education (London), and
conference registration (which includes DSA membership) is required for
attendance. The panel session will comprise three high-level papers with a
discussant response and audience discussion.
 
Both the workshop and the panel will focus
on the issue of how the 'rising powers' (broadly conceived to include Russia
and the CEE states; the Gulf states; and the spectrum of smaller and larger
South-South partners) have been engaging with the post-2015 development agenda:
domestically, in regional institutions and platforms, and within multilateral
organisations. As well as, and beyond the UN-led MDG process, to what extent
and how do different 'rising powers' envision the post-2015 development agenda,
and their role within emerging international development norms, institutions
and governance agendas? We welcome contributions on non-state as well as state
actors, and are interested in papers that have new data on how these processes
and debates are unfolding in particular contexts.
 
We invite indications of interest for one
or both events. Contributions may include standard papers/presentations, short
papers/research interventions, and specific country case studies. The
organising committee will decide on the distribution/final line-up of the
contributions between the workshop/panel session. Attendance at both sessions
is not required, so if you can only attend one or the other please alert us to
this. 
 
Organisers: Sung-Mi Kim, Danilo Marcondes,
Emma Mawdsley (all University of Cambridge) and Giles Mohan (Open University).
 
Please contact Sung-Mi (smk45 at cam.ac.uk) to register your interest
and/or for further queries.
