Institute
Last week, this year’s ISA conference brought together over 5000 scholars and exhibitors from all over the world to discuss all things international, political, scholarly, hold meetings, get lunch together, and party at Mardi Gras (it was in New Orleans, after all!). Similar to last year, a lot of this discussing took also place on Twitter. Scholars-slash-tweeps rallied around the hashtag #isa2015 to talk to each other online about great (and not so great) panels, trends in IR scholarship, gender bias in academia, and (not surprisingly for an academic conference) coffee. Who was most active during ISA2015 on Twitter? What were the most hotly debated topics online? When did ISAlers tweet?
In der aktuellen Ausgabe der Zeitschrift für Internationale Beziehungen analysieren Christopher Daase und Nicole Deitelhoff (Uni Frankfurt) den Ist-Zustand in der deutschen Disziplin der Internationalen Beziehungen (Fazit: nicht so gut & viel Käse) und rufen zu mehr Beteiligung auf, v.a. beim anstehenden DVPW-Kongress in Duisburg.
I’m probably not alone in observing that there seems to be an increasing number of data articles being published in the field of conflict studies and IR. Together with some colleagues, I’m even preparing one myself at the moment! Is that perceived increase in data publication actually measurable? And does it indeed amount to “drowning”?
