This conference explores notions of disciplinarily and interdisciplinary in the human sciences. It represents a marvelous collage of specific instances of the study of social life worthy of the label ‘science’ as well as presentations which think in more general terms about the problem of method and the nature of interdisciplinary. The Social Sciences Conference was held in 2006 at the University of the Aegean in Rhodes, Greece; in 2007 at the University of Granada, Spain; in 2008 at Monash University Centre, Prato, Italy; in 2009 at the University of Athens, Athens, Greece; in 2010 at the University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK; in 2011 at the University of New Orleans, New Orleans, USA; in 2012 at the Universidad Abat Oliba, Barcelona, Spain; in 2013 at Charles University, Prague, Czech Republic; and in 2014 at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. We will hold the 2016 Social Sciences Conference in London, UK at Imperial College London. In addition to organizing the Social Sciences Conference, Common Ground publishes papers from the conference at www.thesocialsciences.com/publications/journal. We do encourage all conference participants to submit a paper based on their conference presentation for peer review and possible publication in the collection. We also publish books at www.thesocialsciences. com/publications/books in both print and digital formats. We invite conference participants to develop book proposals for original works, or for edited collections of articles drawn from the journal which address an identified theme. Finally, please join our online conversation by subscribing to our monthly email newsletter, and subscribe to our Facebook, RSS, or Twitter feeds at www. thesocialsciences.com. Common Ground also organizes conferences and publishes journals in other areas of critical intellectual human concern, including diversity, sustainability, health, learning, and the arts, to name several (www.CommonGroundPublishing.com). Our aim is to create new forms of knowledge community, where people meet in person and also remain connected virtually, making the most of the potentials for access using digital media. We are also committed to creating a more accessible, open, and reliable peer review process. Thank you to everyone who has prepared for this conference including our co-organizers and supporters, The Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences at the University of Split. A personal thank you and acknowledgement goes to Jelena Novaković, Sanja Stanić and everyone at the University of Split who helped organize this year’s conference. In addition, thank you to my Common Ground colleagues who have put such a significant amount of work into this conference: Monica Hillison, Marta Llorente, Dana Modrowski, Ana Quintana, and Jessica Wienhold-Brokish. We wish the best for this conference and hope it will provide you every opportunity for dialogue with colleagues from around the corner and around the world. We hope you will be able to join us at next year’s Social Sciences Conference, 2-5 August 2016 in London, UK. Yours sincerely, Dr. Homer (Tony) Stavely Host, Social Sciences Conference Common Ground Publishing | About Common Ground Our Mission Common Ground Publishing aims to enable all people to participate in creating collaborative knowledge and to share that knowledge with the greater world. Through our academic conferences, peer-reviewed journals and books, and innovative software, we build transformative knowledge communities and provide platforms for meaningful interactions across diverse media. Our Message Heritage knowledge systems are characterized by vertical separations—of discipline, professional association, institution, and country. Common Ground identifies some of the pivotal ideas and challenges of our time and builds knowledge communities that cut horizontally across legacy knowledge structures. Sustainability, diversity, learning, the future of the humanities, the nature of interdisciplinarity, the place of the arts in society, technology’s connections with knowledge, the changing role of the university—these are deeply important questions of our time which require interdisciplinary thinking, global conversations, and cross-institutional intellectual collaborations. Common Ground is a meeting place for these conversations, shared spaces in which differences can meet and safely connect—differences of perspective, experience, knowledge base, methodology, geographical or cultural origins, and institutional affiliation. We strive to create the places of intellectual interaction and imagination that our future deserves. Our Media Common Ground creates and supports knowledge communities through a number of mechanisms and media. Annual conferences are held around the world to connect the global (the international delegates) with the local (academics, practitioners, and community leaders from the host community). Conference sessions include as many ways of speaking as possible to encourage each and every participant to engage, interact, and contribute. The journals and book series offer fully-refereed academic outlets for formalized knowledge, developed through innovative approaches to the processes of submission, peer review, and production. The knowledge community also maintains an online presence—through presentations on our YouTube channel, monthly email newsletters, as well as Facebook and Twitter feeds. And Common Ground’s own software, Scholar, offers a path-breaking platform for online discussions and networking, as well as for creating, reviewing, and disseminating text and multi-media works. 6 | About Common Ground España Common Ground España Since its inception, Common Ground Publishing has been committed to building bridges between different languages and cultures, crossing the geographical and linguistic boundaries that slow down the free flow of ideas between the countless communities that populate the planet. We are truly committed to diversity, and that is why we are striving to create synergies between the English, Spanish, and Portuguese-speaking knowledge communities that meet every year at the conference and that interact through the scholarly journals, the book series, and the social networks. To fulfil this ideal, Common Ground Publishing has launched Common Ground Publishing España in order to create and develop Latin American knowledge communities based on the Spanish and Portuguese languages and cultures, crossing geographic, linguistic, and cultural borders. Each of these knowledge communities holds an annual academic conference (which takes place in parallel to Common Ground’s conferences in English) and manages a peer reviewed scholarly journal, a book series, and a number of social networks that allow scholars and practitioners to interact with other peers coming from different geographical, institutional, and cultural origins, as well as to strengthen interdisciplinary discussions. For the time being, Common Ground Publishing España, whose headquarters are located at the Research Park of the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, has developed ten Latin American knowledge communities; Learning; E-Learning and Innovative Pedagogies; Science in Society; Interdisciplinary Social Sciences; On the Organization; New Directions in the Humanities; The Image; Book and Libraries; Health, Wellness, and Society; and Technology, Knowledge, and Society. 7 Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Knowledge Community Exploring disciplinary and interdisciplinary approaches within and across the various social sciences and between the social and the natural and applied sciences … Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Knowledge Community The Social Sciences Knowledge Community is a forum for discussion of disciplinary and interdisciplinary approaches to knowledge creation within and across the various social sciences and between the social and the natural and applied sciences. The community interacts through an innovative, annual face-to-face conference, as well as year-round online relationships, a family of peer reviewed journals, and book series–exploring the affordances of new digital media. Members of this knowledge community include academics, teachers, administrators, policy makers, and other education practitioners. Conference The conference is built upon four key features: Internationalism, Interdisciplinarity, Inclusiveness, and Interaction. Conference delegates include leaders in the field as well as emerging scholars, who travel to the conference from all corners of the globe and represent a broad range of disciplines and perspectives. A variety of presentation options and session types offer delegates multiple opportunities to engage, to discuss key issues in the field, and to build relationships with scholars from other cultures and disciplines. Publishing The Social Sciences Collection enables members to publish through two media. First, community members can enter a world of journal publication unlike the traditional academic publishing forums—a result of the responsive, non-hierarchical, and constructive nature of the peer review process. The Social Sciences Collection provides a framework for double-blind peer review, enabling authors to publish into an academic journal of the highest standard. The second publication medium is through the book series, The Social Sciences, publishing cutting edge books in print and electronic formats. Publication proposal and manuscript submissions are welcome. Community The Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Knowledge Community offers several opportunities for ongoing communication among its members. Any member may upload video presentations based on scholarly work to the community YouTube channel. Monthly email newsletters contain updates on conference and publishing activities as well as broader news of interest. Members also join the conversation on Facebook and Twitter, or on our new social media platform, Scholar. 11 Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Themes On disciplinary and interdisciplinary practices in the study of the social.

The consequences of these changes are equally evident at the local as well as global level, influencing the everyday lives of individuals and large societal aggregates. The role of the social sciences is of pivotal significance in the interpretation of these intense social changes. More than other disciplines, the social sciences are in an integral position to recognize changes and problems, determine causal links, interpret the available information, and offer solutions. Accordingly, the aim of the 2015 Social Sciences Conference is to contribute to the identification and understanding of different recent social issues, with a focus on social changes that we face in the various segments of the social world. The conference offers a wide range of topics that may be discussed in local and global terms, either through the prism of the social sciences or through interdisciplinary collaborations. 15 Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Scope and Concerns The Disciplinary Work of the Social Sciences Each of the sciences of the social is marked by its distinctive disciplinary modes—the thinking practices of Anthropology, Archaeology, Behavioral Sciences, Cognitive Science, Communications, Cultural Studies, Demography, Economics, Education, Geography, Humanities, Law, Management, Media, Politics, Policy Studies, Psychology, Social Welfare, Sociology, to name some of the principal sciences of the social. The disciplinary variation is so broad that practitioners in some of these areas may not even consider their discipline a ‘science’, whilst in other disciplines there is a general consensus about the scientific character of their endeavor. What is a discipline? Disciplines represent fields of deep and detailed content knowledge, communities of professional practice, forms of discourse (of fine and precise semantic distinction and technicality), areas of work (types of organization or divisions within organizations such as academic departments or research organizations), domains of publication and public communication, sites of common learning, shared experiences of apprenticeship into disciplinary community, methods of reading and analyzing the world, ways of thinking or epistemic frames, even ways of acting and types of person. ‘Discipline’ delineates the boundaries of intellectual community, the distinctive practices and methodologies of particular areas of rigorous and concentrated intellectual effort, and the varying frames of reference used to interpret the world. And what is a science? Some of the studies of the social habitually and comfortably call themselves ‘sciences’, but others do not. The English word ‘science’ derives from the Latin ‘sciens’, or knowing. Return to the expansiveness of this root, and studies of the human could lay equally legitimate claim to that word. ‘Science’ in this broadest of senses implies an intensity of focus and a concentration of intellectual energies greater than that of ordinary, everyday, commonsense or lay ‘knowing’. It is more work and harder work. It relies on the ritualistic rigors and accumulated wisdoms of disciplinary practices. These are some of the out-of-the-ordinary knowledge processes that might justify use of the word ‘science’, not only in the social sciences but also in the natural, physical, mathematical and applied sciences: Science has an experiential basis. This experience may be based on direct personal intuition of the already-known, on interests integral to the lifeworld, on the richness of life fully lived. Or it might be experience gained when we move into new and potentially strange terrains, deploying the empirical processes of methodical observation or systematic experimentation. Science is conceptual. It has a categorical frame of reference based on higher levels of semantic precision and regularity than everyday discourse. On this foundation, it connects concept to concept into schemas. This is how science builds theories which model the world. Science is analytical. It develops frames of reasoning and explanation: logic, inference, prediction, hypothesis, induction, deduction. And it sees the world through an always cautiously critical eye, interrogating the interests, motives and ethics that may motivate knowledge claims and subjecting epistemic assumptions to an ever-vigilant process of metacognitive reflection. Science is application-oriented. It can be used to do things in the world. In these endeavors, it may be pragmatic, designing and implementing practical solutions within larger frames of reference and achieving technical and instrumental outcomes. Or it may be transformative—redesigning paradigms, social being, and even the conditions of the natural world. What, after all, is the purpose of knowing other than to have an effect on the world, directly or indirectly? 16 Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Scope and Concerns Science can be any or all of these experiential, conceptual, analytical, and applied things. Some disciplines may prioritize one or other of these knowledge processes, and this may be the source of their strength as well as potential weakness. In any event, these are the kinds of things we do in order to know in the out-of-the-ordinary ways worthy of the name ‘science’. The Interdisciplinary Work of the Social and Other Sciences Interdisciplinary, transdisciplinary, or multidisciplinary work crosses disciplinary boundaries. This may be for pragmatic reasons, in order to see and do things that can’t be seen or done adequately within the substantive and methodological confines of a discipline. Broader views may prove to be more powerful than narrower ones, and even the more finely grained within-discipline views may prove all-the-more powerful when contextualized broadly. The deeper perspectives of the discipline may need to be balanced with and measured against the broader perspectives of interdisciplinarity. Interdisciplinary approaches may also be applied for reasons of principle, to disrupt the habitual narrowness or outlook of within-discipline knowledge work, to challenge the ingrained, discipline-bound ways of thinking that produce occlusion as well as insight. If the knowable universe is a unity, discipline is a loss as well as a gain, and interdisciplinarity may in part recover that loss. Interdisciplinary approaches also thrive at the interface of disciplinary and lay understandings. Here, interdisciplinarity is needed for the practical application of disciplined understandings to the actually existing world. Robust applied knowledge demands an interdisciplinary holism. A broad epistemological engagement is required simply to be able to deal with the complex contingencies of a really-integrated universe. Ways of Seeing, Ways of Thinking, and Ways of Knowing What are the distinctive modes of the social, natural, and applied sciences? What are their similarities and differences? In English (but not some other languages), ‘science’ suffers a peculiar semantic narrowing. It seems to apply more comfortably to the natural world, and only by analogy to some of the more systematic and empirically-based of the human sciences. It connotes a sometimes narrow kind of systematicity: the canons of empirical method; an often less-than reflective acceptance of received theoretical categories and paradigms; formal reasoning disengaged from human and natural consequences; technical control without adequate ethical reflection; an elision of means and ends; narrow functionalism, instrumentalism, and techno-rationalism; a pragmatism to the neglect broader view of consequences; and conservative risk aversion. These are some of the occupational hazards of activities that name themselves sciences—social, natural, or applied. In studying the social setting, however, it’s not good enough just to have a rigorous empirical methodology without a critical eye to alternative interests and paradigmatic frames of reference, and without a view to the human-transformational potentials of knowledge work. Humanistic methodologies sometimes address the social in a deliberate counterpoint to science, distancing themselves from the perceived narrownesses of scientific method. This move, however, may at times leave science stranded, separated from its social origins and ends. The natural and technological sciences are themselves more subject to contestation around axes of human interest than the narrow understanding of science seems to be able to comprehend. Whether it be bioethics, or climate change, or the debates around Darwinism and Intelligent Design, or the semantics of computer systems, questions of politics and ideology are bound closely to the ostensible evidence. Faux empiricism is less than adequate to address the more important questions, even in the natural and technological sciences. Science can be found lacking when it is disengaged from the humanistic. 17 Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Scope and Concerns The humanistic, however, has its own occupational hazards: disengaged critique and supercilious inaction without design responsibility; political confrontation without systematic empirical foundation; ideological fractiousness without apparent need for compromise; the agnostic relativism of lived experience and identity-driven voice; voluntarism that leads to a naive lack of pragmatism and failure in application. A reconstructive view of the social, natural, and applied sciences would be holistic, attempting always to avoid the occlusions of narrow methodological approaches. It would also be ambitious, intellectually and practically. In this context, the Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Knowledge Community pursues two aspirations, two openings. The first is an intellectual opening, founded on an agenda designed to strengthen the theories, the research methodologies, the epistemologies, and the practices of teaching and learning about the social world and the relation of the social to the natural world. The second opening is pragmatic and inventive. All intellectual work is an act of imagination. At its best, it is ambitious, risky, and transformative. If the natural sciences can have human ambitions as big as those of the medical sciences—the fight against MS or cancer or Alzheimer’s, for instance—then the social sciences can have ambitions as large as to settle the relation of humans to the natural environment, the material conditions of human equality, and the character of the future person. 18 Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Community Membership About The Interdisciplinary Social Sciences knowledge community is dedicated to the concept of independent, peer-led groups of scholars, researchers, and practitioners working together to build bodies of knowledge related to topics of critical importance to society at large.

Scholar provides scaffolding to encourage making and sharing knowledge drawing from multiple sources rather than memorizing knowledge that has been presented to them. Scholar also answers one of the most fundamental questions students and instructors have of their performance, “How am I doing?” Typical modes of assessment often answer this question either too late to matter or in a way that is not clear or comprehensive enough to meaningfully contribute to better performance. A collaborative research and development project between Common Ground and the College of Education at the University of Illinois, Scholar contains a knowledge community space, a multimedia web writing space, a formative assessment environment that facilitates peer review, and a dashboard with aggregated machine and human formative and summative writing assessment data. The following Scholar features are only available to Common Ground Knowledge Community members as part of their membership. Please email us at [email protected] if you would like the complimentary educator account that comes with participation in a Common Ground conference. • Create projects for groups of students, involving draft, peer review, revision and publication. • Publish student works to each student’s personal portfolio space, accessible through the web for class discussion. • Create and distribute surveys. • Evaluate student work using a variety of measures in the assessment dashboard. Scholar is a generation beyond learning management systems. It is what we term a Digital Learning Platform— it transforms learning by engaging students in powerfully horizontal “social knowledge” relationships.

It also interrogates Indexing Academic Search Alumni Edition Academic Search Complete Academic Search Elite Academic Search Index Academic Search Premier Biography Reference Bank Cabell’s OmniFile Full Text Mega OmniFile Full Text Select Scopus The Australian Research Council (ERA) Ulrich’s Periodicals Directory what constitutes “science” in a social context, and the connections between the social and other sciences. The journals in this collection discuss the distinctive disciplinary practices within the sciences of the social and examine examples of these practices. In order to define and exemplify disciplinarity, the collection fosters dialogue ranging from the broad and speculative to the microcosmic and practical. In considering the varied interdisciplinary, transdisciplinary, or multidisciplinary work across and between the social, natural, and applied sciences, the journals in this collection showcase interdisciplinary practices in action. The focus of papers ranges from the finely grained and empirical, to wide-ranging multidisciplinary and trans-disciplinary practices, to perspectives on knowledge and method. Collection Editor Founded: Gerassimos Kouzelis, Department of Political Science and Public Administration Publication Frequency: University of Athens, Athens, Greece 2006 Quarterly (March, June, September, December) Community Website: thesocialsciences.com Bookstore: iji.cgpublisher.com Associate Editors Articles published in the Social Sciences Collection are peer reviewed by scholars who are active members of the Social Sciences knowledge community. Reviewers may be past or present conference delegates, fellow submitters to the collection, or scholars who have volunteered to review papers (and have been screened by Common Ground’s editorial team). This engagement with the knowledge community, as well as Common Ground’s synergistic and criterion-based evaluation system, distinguishes the peer review process from journals that have a more top-down approach to refereeing.

Submit a conference presentation proposal. 2. Once your conference presentation proposal has been accepted, you may submit your article by clicking the “Add a Paper” button on the right side of your proposal page. You may upload your article anytime between the first and the final submission deadlines. (See dates below) 3. Once your article is received, it is verified against template and submission requirements. If your article satisfies these requirements, your identity and contact details are then removed, and the article is matched to two appropriate referees and sent for review. You can view the status of your article at any time by logging into your CGPublisher account at www. CGPublisher.com. 4. When both referee reports are uploaded, and after the referees’ identities have been removed, you will be notified by email and provided with a link to view the reports. 5. If your article has been accepted, you will be asked to accept the Publishing Agreement and submit a final copy of your article. If your paper is accepted with revisions, you will be required to submit a change note with your final submission, explaining how you revised your article in light of the referees’ comments. If your article is rejected, you may resubmit it once, with a detailed change note, for review by new referees. 6. Once we have received the final submission of your article, which was accepted or accepted with revisions, our Publishing Department will give your article a final review. This final review will verify that you have complied with the Chicago Manual of Style (16th edition), and will check any edits you have made while considering the feedback of your referees. After this review has been satisfactorily completed, your paper will be typeset and a proof will be sent to you for approval before publication. 7. Individual articles may be published “Web First” with a full citation. Full issues follow at regular, quarterly intervals. All issues are published 4 times per volume (except the annual review, which is published once per volume). Submission Timeline You may submit your article for publication to the journal at any time throughout the year. The rolling submission deadlines are as follows: • Submission Round 1 – 15 January • Submission Round 2 – 15 April • Submission Round 3 – 15 July • Submission Round 4 (final) – 15 October Note: If your article is submitted after the final deadline for the volume, it will be considered for the following year’s volume.

Also, because we publish “Web First,” early submission means that your article may be published with a full citation as soon as it is ready, even if that is before the full issue is published. 30 Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Common Ground Open Hybrid Open Access All Common Ground Journals are Hybrid Open Access. Hybrid Open Access is an option increasingly offered by both university presses and well-known commercial publishers. Hybrid Open Access means some articles are available only to subscribers, while others are made available at no charge to anyone searching the web. Authors pay an additional fee for the open access option. Authors may do this because open access is a requirement of their research-funding agency, or they may do this so non-subscribers can access their article for free. Common Ground’s open access charge is $250 per article–a very reasonable price compared to our hybrid open access competitors and purely open access journals resourced with an author publication fee. Digital articles are normally only available through individual or institutional subscriptions or for purchase at $5 per article. However, if you choose to make your article Open Access, this means anyone on the web may download it for free. Paying subscribers still receive considerable benefits with access to all articles in the journal, from both current and past volumes, without any restrictions. However, making your paper available at no charge through Open Access increases its visibility, accessibility, potential readership, and citation counts. Open Access articles also generate higher citation counts. Institutional Open Access Common Ground is proud to announce an exciting new model of scholarly publishing called Institutional Open Access. Institutional Open Access allows faculty and graduate students to submit articles to Common Ground journals for unrestricted open access publication. These articles will be freely and publicly available to the whole world through our hybrid open access infrastructure. With Institutional Open Access, instead of the author paying a per-article open access fee, institutions pay a set annual fee that entitles their students and faculty to publish a given number of open access articles each year. The rights to the articles remain with the subscribing institution. Both the author and the institution can also share the final typeset version of the article in any place they wish, including institutional repositories, personal websites, and privately or publicly accessible course materials. We support the highest Sherpa/Romeo access level—Green. For more information on how to make your article Open Access, or information on Institutional Open Access, please contact us at [email protected]. 31 Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Journal Awards International Award for Excellence The Social Sciences Collection presents an annual International Award for Excellence for new research or thinking in the area of the social sciences. All articles submitted for publication in the Social Sciences Collection are entered into consideration for this award. The review committee for the award is selected from the International Advisory Board for the collection and the annual Social Sciences Conference. The committee selects the winning article from the highest-ranked articles emerging from the review process and according to the selection criteria outlined in the reviewer guidelines. This Year’s Award Winner Dr. Olga Achón Rodríguez, Universitat de Barcelona, Spain For the Article “Migratory Fluxes and the Concentration of Foreign Manpower” Abstract Once the model of family farming was substituted by an industrial agricultural system of production based on hired labor, the agricultural catalonian (Spain) union Unió de Pagesos, with the consent of the State, reinvented itself as a provider of services related to the acquisition of manpower through a recruitment and supply system. The State’s migration polity is responsible for the emergence of such a system, and we can trace its origin in the symbiotic relationship between the State and the Union, whose interests- social control of the foreign worker and the just-in-time delivery of labor- are harmonized in it. In the lodgement, a transformation is intended through different devices -lodgment regulations, the presence of personnel in charge of the facilities, a visit regime, and exit permissions, among others- close to other institutions, as labor camps, where individuality is tamed through subordination to a dominating power in order to create a new subject. 32 Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Subscriptions and Access Community Membership and Personal Subscriptions As part of each conference registration, all conference participants (both virtual and in-person) have a one-year digital subscription to the entire Social Sciences Collection.

Tiky Unlike other studies of democracy and democratization in Africa that start the investigation with postcolonial developments, this book is a comprehensive study that investigates political developments in African colonial and postcolonial states. The research finds that centralized and decentralized African states designed and implemented democratic institutions hundreds of years before they were ultimately defeated by European powers. This argument turns upside down the conventional view that the birth place of democracy is the ancient city-state of Athens; it shows that democracy emerged in Africa and later spread in Greece. Moreover, the book proposes an original theory of democratization that discusses the conditions of the emergence of democracy in the context of precolonial Africa. Analyzing politics in contemporary African states, the study draws a sharp dichotomic line between ISBN—978-1-61229-410-0 118 Pages Community Website: thesocialsciences.com Bookstore: thesocialsciences. cgpublisher.com democracy and dictatorship and proposes a classification and ranking of these two types of political regimes in Africa. Looking ahead, this work also discusses and proposes answers to some of the most important issues regarding the building of democratic regimes in contemporary African states. The methodological strategy adopted by this project is that of triangulation: comparative historical analysis, theoretical and empirical analyses contribute to provide a comprehensive explanation of democratic development in both pre- and postcolonial African states. Author Bio: Lembe Tiky, Ph.D., teaches international relations and comparative politics courses at the University of Connecticut and is an associate of the John Goodwin Tower Center for Political Studies, Southern Methodist University. His research interests include topics such as democratic theory, democratization, development, human rights, security issues, and foreign relations. Dr. Tiky received his B.A. from the University of Yaoundé in Cameroon, his M.A. from the American University in Washington, DC, and his Ph.D. from the University of Texas at Dallas. Prior to moving to the United States, he worked as a journalist and traveled extensively in the continent of Africa to cover political developments; he has published op-ed articles in numerous media outlets, including Slate Afrique and Njangui Press. 39 Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Books The Social Mind: Language, Ideology, and Social Practice James Paul Gee The Social Mind was first published in 1990. It was meant to show that there was no conflict between sociocultural views of language, learning, and thinking and new psychological views of the mind/ brain. Neural network approaches to the mind argue that the mind is furnished by an unbelievably large network of neural associations. These associations are based on our lived experiences, which are different for all of us. It is our social and cultural affiliations that shape and mentor our experiences so that we can share, collaborate, and communicate in terms of a social mind that we all partially share and nonetheless also contribute to in unique ways. The book still stands as a leading statement of how work on situated and embodied cognition leads us to, and contributes to, sociocultural theories of language and learning.

Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Books Health and Human Rights in Ghana: The Political and Economic Aspect of Health Care Isidore Bonabom Many of the people who can afford to pay for health care travel outside Ghana for medical care when they are faced with serious health problems. Public health care should not be about affluence; it is a human rights issue. This inevitable link between health and human rights is sometimes overlooked in the national discourses about public health and individual access to health care. This book examines the domestic legislation on the public health care system in Ghana. The analysis is situated within the provisions of international human rights treaties, the medium-to long-term consequences of some economic policies, the role of the traditional medicine system in public health care, the silent epidemic of the hepatitis B virus (HBV), and the human rights question in an age of HIV/AIDS in the country. State responsibility to respect, protect, and fulfil the right to health translates to many responsibilities for the citizens, not the least of which is providing the framework for good health delivery. ISBN—978-1-61229-470-4 104 Pages Community Website: thesocialsciences.com Bookstore: thesocialsciences. cgpublisher.com Author Bio: Isidore Bonabom is a Jesuit priest from Ghana and a research fellow in the Faculty of Law, University of Cape Coast. He holds postgraduate degrees in law and human rights from the London School of Economics (LSE) as well as a Ph.D. from the University of Sussex.

He is the author of several articles on human rights and of two book chapters in Preserving the Universality of Human Rights (Libreria Editrice Vaticana, 2012) and AIDS: 30 Years Down the Line (Paulines Publications Africa, 2013). 41 The Social Sciences Conference Discussing and examining key issues in the social sciences, and building face-to-face relationships with leading and emerging scholars from the field that represent a broad range of disciplines and perspectives… Interdisciplinary Social Sciences About the Conference Conference History Founded in 2006, the International Conference on Interdisciplinary Social Sciences examines the nature of disciplinary practices in the study of society, and the interdisciplinary practices that arise in the context of ‘real world’ applications of social research and theory. It also interrogates what constitutes ‘science’ in a social context, and the connections between the social and other sciences. The focus of papers ranges from the finely grained and empirical (research practices and results exemplifying one or more disciplines), to wide-ranging multi-disciplinary and trans-disciplinary perspectives on knowledge and method. The International Conference on Interdisciplinary Social Sciences is built upon four key features: Internationalism, Interdisciplinarity, Inclusiveness, and Interaction. Conference delegates include leaders in the field as well as emerging scholars, who travel to the conference from all corners of the globe and represent a broad range of disciplines and perspectives. A variety of presentation options and session types offer delegates multiple opportunities to engage, to discuss key issues in the field, and to build relationships with scholars from other cultures and disciplines. Past Conferences • 2006 - University of the Aegean, Rhodes, Greece • 2007 - University of Granada, Granada, Spain • 2008 - Monash University Centre, Prato, Tuscany, Italy • 2009 - University of Athens, Athens, Greece • 2010 - University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK • 2011 - University of New Orleans, New Orleans, USA • 2012 - Universidad Abat Oliba CEU in Barcelona, Spain • 2013 - Charles University’s Faculty of Social Sciences in Prague, Czech Republic • 2014 - University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada 45 Interdisciplinary Social Sciences About the Conference Plenary Speaker Highlights The International Conference on Interdisciplinary Social Sciences has a rich history of featuring leading and emerging voices from the field, including: • Patrick Baert, Selwyn College, Cambridge, UK (2006, 2010) • David Barton, Lancaster University, Lancaster, UK (2006) • Robin Blackburn, The New School for Social Research, New York City, USA (2007) • Leela Fernandes, Rutgers University, New Brunswick, USA (2008) • Sir Jack Goody, St John’s College, Cambridge, UK (2010) • Rom Harré, Georgetown University, Washington DC, USA (2010) • Gerassimos Kouzelis, The National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Athens, Greece (2009) • Alena Křížková, Institute of Sociology of the Czech Academy of Sciences, Prague, Czech Republic (2013) • Juliet Mitchell, Jesus College, Cambridge, UK (2010) • Jan Nederveen Pieterse, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.

But more importantly, the Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Conference offers a tangible and meaningful opportunity to engage with scholars from a diversity of cultures and perspectives. This year, delegates from over 39 countries are in attendance, offering a unique and unparalleled opportunity to engage directly with colleagues from all corners of the globe. Interdisciplinary Unlike association conferences attended by delegates with similar backgrounds and specialties, this conference brings together researchers, practitioners, and scholars from a wide range of disciplines who have a shared interest in the themes and concerns of this community. As a result, topics are broached from a variety of perspectives, interdisciplinary methods are applauded, and mutual respect and collaboration are encouraged. Inclusive Anyone whose scholarly work is sound and relevant is welcome to participate in this community and conference, regardless of discipline, culture, institution, or career path. Whether an emeritus professor, graduate student, researcher, teacher, policymaker, practitioner, or administrator, your work and your voice can contribute to the collective body of knowledge that is created and shared by this community. Interactive To take full advantage of the rich diversity of cultures, backgrounds, and perspectives represented at the conference, there must be ample opportunities to speak, listen, engage, and interact. A variety of session formats, from more to less structured, are offered throughout the conference to provide these opportunities. 47 Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Ways of Speaking Plenary Plenary speakers, chosen from among the world’s leading thinkers, offer formal presentations on topics of broad interest to the community and conference delegation. One or more speakers are scheduled into a plenary session, most often the first session of the day. As a general rule, there are no questions or discussion during these sessions. Instead, plenary speakers answer questions and participate in informal, extended discussions during their Garden Sessions. Garden Conversation Garden Conversations are informal, unstructured sessions that allow delegates a chance to meet plenary speakers and talk with them at length about the issues arising from their presentation. When the venue and weather allow, we try to arrange for a circle of chairs to be placed outdoors. Talking Circles Held on the first day of the conference, Talking Circles offer an early opportunity to meet other delegates with similar interests and concerns. Delegates self-select into groups based on broad thematic areas and then engage in extended discussion about the issues and concerns they feel are of utmost importance to that segment of the community. Questions like “Who are we?”, ”What is our common ground?”, “What are the current challenges facing society in this area?”, “What challenges do we face in constructing knowledge and effecting meaningful change in this area?” may guide the conversation. When possible, a second Talking Circle is held on the final day of the conference, for the original group to reconvene and discuss changes in their perspectives and understandings as a result of the conference experience. Reports from the Talking Circles provide a framework for the delegates’ final discussions during the Closing Session. Themed Paper Presentations Paper presentations are grouped by general themes or topics into sessions comprised of three or four presentations followed by group discussion. Each presenter in the session makes a formal twentyminute presentation of their work; Q&A and group discussion follow after all have presented. Session Chairs introduce the speakers, keep time on the presentations, and facilitate the discussion. Each presenter’s formal, written paper will be available to participants if accepted to the journal. Colloquium Colloquium sessions are organized by a group of colleagues who wish to present various dimensions of a project or perspectives on an issue. Four or five short formal presentations are followed by commentary and/or group discussion. A single article or multiple articles may be submitted to the journal based on the content of a colloquium session. 48 Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Ways of Speaking Focused Discussion For work that is best discussed or debated, rather than reported on through a formal presentation, these sessions provide a forum for an extended “roundtable” conversation between an author and a small group of interested colleagues. Several such discussions occur simultaneously in a specified area, with each author’s table designated by a number corresponding to the title and topic listed in the program schedule. Summaries of the author’s key ideas, or points of discussion, are used to stimulate and guide the discourse. A single article, based on the scholarly work and informed by the focused discussion as appropriate, may be submitted to the journal. Workshop/Interactive Session Workshop sessions involve extensive interaction between presenters and participants around an idea or hands-on experience of a practice. These sessions may also take the form of a crafted panel, staged conversation, dialogue or debate—all involving substantial interaction with the audience. A single article (jointly authored, if appropriate) may be submitted to the journal based on a workshop session. Poster Sessions Poster sessions present preliminary results of works in progress or projects that lend themselves to visual displays and representations. These sessions allow for engagement in informal discussions about the work with interested delegates throughout the session. 49 Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Daily Schedule Thursday, 11 June 8:00–9:00 Conference Registration Desk Open 9:00–9:20 Conference Opening & Host Remarks—Homer Stavely, Common Ground Publishing, USA 9:20–9:40 University of Split Welcome Address and Ceremony 9:40–10:10 Plenary Session—Dr. Sc.

Con 10 comunidades de conocimiento en español y portugués y 24 comunidades en inglés, la visión de Common Ground es proveer plataformas que reúnan a personas de diversos orígenes geográficos, institucionales y culturales en espacios donde académicos y otros profesionales puedan conectar por igual a través de distintos campos interdisciplinares de estudio. Cada comunidad de conocimiento realiza un congreso académico anual alrededor del mundo y está asociada a una Revista revisada por pares (o a una colección de Revistas), una colección de Libros y un serie de redes sociales, en torno a un nuevo “espacio social de conocimiento” diseñado y desarrollado por Common Ground: Scholar (http://cgscholar.com/). A través de sus servicios editoriales, Common Ground tiene como objetivo fomentar los más altos estándares de excelencia intelectual. Somos muy críticos con las graves deficiencias que existen en el actual sistema de publicaciones académica, incluyendo las estructuras existentes y las redes exclusivas que restringen la visibilidad de los académicos e investigadores emergentes en los países en desarrollo, así como los costes e ineficiencias insostenibles asociados con la edición comercial tradicional. Para combatir estas deficiencias, Common Ground ha desarrollado un modelo de publicación innovador. Cada una de las comunidades de conocimiento de Common Ground organiza un congreso académico anual. La cuota de inscripción que pagan los participantes del congreso por asistir y presentar en estos congresos, les permite enviar un artículo a la revista (o colección de revistas) asociada sin coste adicional. Así, los autores pueden realizar una presentación en un congreso científico de su área de investigación, incorporar las críticas constructivas que reciben en respuesta a su presentación y, a continuación, enviar un artículo sólido para su revisión por pares, sin que el autor tenga que pagar una tasa adicional. Los académicos que no puedan asistir al congreso en persona, pueden participar de forma virtual, opción que les permite enviar un artículo a la revista. Usando una parte de la cuota de inscripción para financiar los costes asociados a la producción y comercialización de las revistas, Common Ground es capaz de mantener unos precios de suscripción bajos, facilitando así el acceso a todos nuestros contenidos. Todos los participantes del congreso, tanto presenciales como virtuales, pueden subir sus presentaciones al canal de YouTube de Common Ground, además de tener una suscripción electrónica gratuita a la revista por un periodo de un año. Esta suscripción permite el acceso a todos los números, presentes y pasados, de la revista en español/portugués y a la revista (o colección de revistas) en inglés. Además, cada artículo que publicamos está disponible de forma individual con una tarifa de descarga de $3 para los no abonados, y los autores disponen de la opción de publicar su artículo en acceso abierto para llegar así a una mayor audiencia y garantizar la difusión más amplia posible. El riguroso proceso de revisión de Common Ground trata también de abordar algunos de los sesgos inherentes a los tradicionales modelos de editoriales académicas. El conjunto de evaluadores está compuesto de autores que han presentado recientemente artículos a la revista, así como de revisores voluntarios cuyos currículos y experiencia académica han sido evaluados por el equipo editorial de Common Ground. Los artículos son asignados a revisores en base en sus intereses académicos y experiencia. Al tener voluntarios y a otros autores como posibles revisores, Common Ground evita los inconvenientes de depender de la red profesional de un solo editor, que con más frecuencia de la deseable conlleva la creación de grupos de arbitraje cerrado que deciden qué y quién publica. En cambio, Common Ground aprovecha el excelente talante de los participantes del congreso y de los autores de las revistas para evaluar los trabajos, utilizando un sistema de evaluación basado en criterios más democráticos e intelectualmente más rigurosos que otros modelos tradicionales. Common Ground también reconoce la importante labor de los revisores, nombrándoles Editores Asociados de los volúmenes en los que contribuyen. A través de la creación de un software asombrosamente innovador, Common Ground también ha comenzado a hacer frente a lo que considera como un cambio en las relaciones tecnológicas, económicas, geográficas, interdisciplinarias, sociales y de distribución y difusión del conocimiento. Desde hace más de diez años hemos estado construyendo una editorial muy mediada por las tecnologías web y las nueves redes sociales, donde la gente pueda trabajar en estrecha colaboración para aprender, crear y compartir conocimiento. La tercera y última iteración de este proyecto es un entorno social de conocimiento pionero llamado Scholar (http://cgscholar.com/). Esta plataforma informática posee un lugar donde los académicos pueden conectarse en red y dar visibilidad a sus investigaciones a través de una librería personal. Esperamos que se unan a nosotros en la creación de diálogos entre diferentes perspectivas, experiencias, áreas de conocimiento y metodologías a través de las interacciones en el seno del congreso, las conversaciones online, los artículos 92 para la revista o la colección de libros (ambas revisadas por pares). Revista Internacional de Ciencias Sociales Interdisciplinares La Revista Internacional de Ciencias Sociales Interdisciplinares tiene como objetivo examinar la naturaleza de las prácticas disciplinares, y las prácticas interdisciplinares que surgen en el contexto de las aplicaciones del “mundo real”. También se interroga sobre el significado de la “ciencia” en un contexto social, y las conexiones entre lo social y las demás ciencias particulares. La revista discute las prácticas disciplinares distintivas en el seno de las ciencias sociales y examina ejemplos de estas prácticas. Con el fin de definir y ejemplificar lo que constituye las disciplinas, la revista fomenta el diálogo, ya sea desde una perspectiva global, teórica y especulativa, o ya sea desde una perspectiva local y empírica. Al considerar las variadas perspectivas interdisciplinares, trasdisciplinares o multidisciplinares que permean las ciencias sociales, las ciencias naturales y las ciencias aplicadas, la revista muestra el modo en que las prácticas interdisciplinares entran en acción. El enfoque de los artículos puede ir desde aportaciones empíricas y estudios de casos, hasta una amplia gama de investigaciones sobre prácticas multidisciplinares y trasdisciplinares, así como reflexiones sobre el conocimiento sociológico y sobre las metodologías aplicables. La Revista Internacional de Ciencias Sociales Interdisciplinares es revisada por expertos y respaldada por un proceso de publicación basado en el rigor y en criterios de calidad académica, asegurando así que solo los trabajos intelectuales significativos sean publicados.

Se trata de un nuevo modelo, en pleno auge en el seno del sector de las publicaciones académicas. Este servicio es ofrecido cada vez más por las editoriales universitarias y por editoriales comerciales de prestigio. Acceso Abierto Híbrido significa que algunos artículos están disponibles sólo para suscriptores, mientras que otros están disponibles gratuitamente para cualquier persona que busca en la web. Los autores que estén interesados en tener su artículo en acceso abierto, es decir accesible de forma gratuita en la web, deben abonar una cantidad adicional si desean hacer efectiva esta interesante opción. Cada vez más agencias de financiación, tanto gubernamentales como fundaciones públicas y privadas, están exigiendo que los artículos de sus investigadores sean publicados en acceso abierto. A cambio, dichas agencias ofrecen financiación adicional a dichos autores para poder abonar la cantidad estipulada por la editorial. Infórmese en su agencia de financiación, en su centro de investigación o en su universidad para solicitar una ayuda por este concepto. Los beneficios de convertir su artículo en acceso abierto son considerables y empíricamente comprobados. Innumerables trabajos de investigación han probado que un artículo en acceso abierto aumenta no sólo su visibilidad y su accesibilidad y por tanto, también el número de lectores potenciales, sino que además puede aumentar el número de citas recibidas en más de un 250% Para más información, por favor visite la página: http://lascienciassociales.com/publicaciones/revista/acceso-abierto Servicios Editoriales Nos complace en ofrecer servicios editoriales para aquellos autores que quieran tener una revisión/edición profesional de su trabajo.
