We, Russian scholars, find it difficult to fit into the Western scholarly discourse, to have our papers published, etc., partially, I think, because of different traditions of inquiry and presentation of results. I haven't heard Peter Vorderer in Seattle, but he spoke about this in London last year. I don't think I'll be able to make it to Puerto Rico (too far away), but maybe we'll be able to think of other forms of "presence", like Skype?<br>Olga Leontovich<br><br>Fri, 5 Dec 2014 08:50:47 -0700 от David Boromisza-Habashi <<a href="mailto:dbh@Colorado.EDU">dbh@Colorado.EDU</a>>:<o:p></o:p></p><div id=""><div><div><div id="style_14177946560000000908_BODY"><div><div><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:black">Hi Steph,<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:black">As much as possible we would like this (to-be-proposed) workshop to focus on questions and experiences related to scholarly conversations between EC-based research and *theorizing* in other traditions of inquiry.

The session format is flexible and can be individualized by the chairs. The objective, however, is not to replicate the standard format of single presenters and a listening audience, but rather to facilitate active contribution by each attendant. For this reason, participation is limited to approximately 20 attendees, depending on room capacity. Sessions will typically last for one standard time slot of 75 minutes. You can find the Call for Proposals for Blue Sky Workshops at:<br><a href="http://www.icahdq.org/conf/2015/blueskyworkshops.asp" target="_blank">http://www.icahdq.org/conf/2015/blueskyworkshops.asp</a>. Proposals must follow the directions outlined in the Call and should be submitted to Amy Jordan (<a href="//e.mail.ru/compose/?mailto=mailto%3aajordan@asc.upenn.edu" target="_blank">ajordan@asc.upenn.edu</a>) by 31 December 2014. Proposals with incomplete information will not be considered for inclusion in the program.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p align="center" style="text-align:center"><span style="font-size:7.5pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif";color:black">This email has been sent out through Ohana.
