The Standing Group on International Relations is a European ECPR broad-based Standing Group where IR specialists from different sectors of activity - universities, independent research institutes and public administration - are brought together to promote scholarly activities.
The SGIR is led by a Steering Committee which is elected every 3 years. The main activities of the SGIR range from organising major conferences, summer schools and publishing books and journals and maintaining a website and mailing list.
The SGIR 2010 European International Relations Summer School will be held at the University of Tübingen (Germany) from 26 July to 6 August. This year’s theme is “Conflicts in Europe – Europe in Conflicts”. The EIRSS is organised on behalf of the ECPR-Standing Group on International Relations. Its participants are primarily doctoral students from across Europe. The deadline for applications is 31 January 2010.
The SGIR conference sections for the September conference are now available. The submission platform is available here.
