This year, we will have five Methodology workshop sessions. You can read the programme here.
As in the past years, we have organised a PhD dinner for you. We meet on Tuesday evening (June 22nd) in Le Tonneau de Diogène, from 7:30 p.m. This is a modest restaurant, well-known in Grenoble for its philosophy and literature meetings... This dinner is dedicated to young scholars but everybody else is welcome. Please contact sonia.lemettre(a)entpe.fr before June, 1st, with the object "PhD Dinner" to register.

The workshops aim at (1) creating a setting where early career researchers can benefit from focused interaction with experts in their field and (2) generating questions about and exchange experiences with interpretive methods, such as expert interviewing and discourse analysis. The sessions will be facilitated by fellow early career researchers, and the discussants will be established and renowned names in the field of interpretive policy analysis. The sessions are fully incorporated into the regular conference program, and they are open to all conference participants, in order to create a collaborative learning environment for all involved.
The 90-minute workshop sessions feature specialists in different aspects of interpretive analysis. The format of the workshop sessions builds on the idea of a "master-class" as practiced in musical studies, where two senior researchers (or "specialists") will meet a small number of early career researchers using a particular methodological strategy or technique. The focus will be on questions raised by researchers, and their research will be treated as case studies to generate and engage a set of methodological questions.
