Call for Participation for the online workshop by RN11 & Emotions and Society Journal

Dear all,

As there is no ESA or RN11-Midterm-Conference this year, we thought to fill the gap with a more informal workshop. Instead of people presenting papers, our free online workshop is designed to facilitate discussion between sociology of emotions scholars and will have different sessions with different topics.

It is organised jointly by the Emotions & Society Journal and RN11 and will take place on 14th & 15th of September 2023 online.

In order to register send us your affiliation, title of the session(s) you would like to join and a few lines with your motivating interest in the topic(s) to the following email address (the one from our 2022 Midterm Conference): rn11midterm2022@protonmail.com

Deadline: 02nd of July, 2023.

Please find attached the full Call for Participation with further information (registration, list of sessions, timetable, etc.).

For any further questions, feel free to contact us.

Best wishes,

Your RN11 board
