I am a Research Fellow at the Institute of Geography of the Univesity of Edinburgh.
I am trying to put together a panel on informal economies for the next ICCEES World Congress (I attach the call below).
In my current research project I look at the way under-the-table practices have a role in the economic development of Ukraine and Turkey.
If anybody working on:
-social and economic informal networks
-bribe/gift giving, corruption, favours
-fiscal frauds, taxes, smuggling
-remittances, border crossing
or any other related topic
wants to attend the ICCEES I would be glad to hear from him/her
you contact me at

Thank you and best wishes

CONF./CFP- ICCEES World Cong. - Int'l Council for Central & East Eur. Studies
Posted by: Henry Wathen
Dear Colleagues:
We have the honour to invite the international academic community to the VIII ICCEES World Congress in Stockholm 2010, to participate in a wide scholarly discussion with the overriding theme:
Eurasia: Prospects for Wider Cooperation
Call for Proposals
The VIII World Congress of the International Council for Central and East European Studies will take place in Stockholm, Sweden, on 26-31 July 2010.
The Swedish Society for the Study of Russia, Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia invites all interested scholars to submit proposals for panels, papers and round-table discussions. These proposals should reflect the results of new research in the study of developments in the cultural, political, social and economic processes underway in Central and Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union.
While acknowledging the ongoing European integration processes, the VIII World Congress is convened at a time when the international situation poses new security challenges, requiring the elaboration of new strategies. The Congress seeks to organize a wide scholarly discussion of these developments. The processes of European
integration and wider cooperation across Eurasia not only impact upon geographical spaces but also leave their mark upon cultural spaces. These processes make communication between languages, histories, religions, traditions, legacies and memories more complex. Humanities and social science scholars are therefore invited to reflect on how local cultural contexts react to, engage in, or resist globalization.
For more information about the general themes of the Congress, please see:
