[Björn Hammarfelt]

Call for papers - INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY FOR THE UN-DISCIPLINE(D):


The first workshop from the ERC-funded project PASSIM (Patents as
Scientific Information, 1895- 2020), in collaboration with The
International Society for the History
and Theory of Intellectual Property (ISHTIP).


Dates: September 10-13, 2019
Venue: Norrköping, SWEDEN
Call closes: January 31, 2019 Acceptance by: February 15, 2019

Proposal format: 500 Word proposal/200 Word bio


Research on copyright, patents and trademarks engage scholars across a
wide spectrum of disciplines in the humanities and social sciences. No
longer reserved for law and legal scholarship, a variety of
methodological and theoretical approaches now inform and drive
interdisciplinary intellectual property scholarship.


Together with ISHTIP (the International Society for the History and
Theory of Intellectual Property www.ishtip.org), the ERC-funded project
“Patents as Scientific Information, 1895-2020” (PASSIM) now invite
proposals to its first workshop, “Intellectual Property for the
Un-Discipline(d).” The goal of the workshop is to foster an innovative
dialogue on the limits and possibilities of interdisciplinary
intellectual property scholarship. In the “high risk, high-gain” spirit
of the ERC grants, we invite papers that creatively engage with
intellectual property as research experience, that explore the dynamics
of new and unexpected topics and perspectives, and that open up to
self-reflexivity in respect to choices of material, methods, narration
and (inter)disciplinary infidelities. We especially encourage
submissions focused on the “doing of” intellectual property scholarship
as boundary work, exploring the assumptions and challenges involved in
your own research. Successful candidates (4-5 scholars) will have travel
and lodging paid for by PASSIM and can expect to present their research
in a stimulating and generous milieu, consisting not only of the PASSIM
team but of specially invited, experienced researchers in the field:
Fiona Macmillan (co-Director of ISHTIP, Birkbeck Law and Roma Tre);
Gabriel Galvez-Behar (Economic History, Université de Lille); Evan
Hepler-Smith (History of Science, Boston College) and Shobita
Parthasarathy (Director of the Science, Technology, and Public Policy
Program, University of Michigan). For more information about the call
and funding scheme, please e-mail eva.hemmungs.wirten at liu.se.


PASSIM is a five-year (2017-2022) project funded by an ERC Advanced
Investigator Grant (741095) to Professor Eva Hemmungs Wirtén, Linköping
University, Sweden, PASSIM
focuses on the “openness” aspect of patents, considering their role as
technoscientific documents in the history of information and
intellectual property. For more information on the project and the team,
