DESCRIPTION:<p>*********************************************************<br><br>KNOWLEDGE TRANSFER AND ITS CONTEXTS<br><br>Center for Advanced Studies<br>LMU Munich<br><br>10-11 September\, 2015<br><br><br>http://www.cas.uni-muenchen.de/veranstaltungen/tagungen/ws_herfeld/index.html<br><br>*********************************************************<br><br>This workshop brings together researchers to address questions around the nature of knowledge&nbsp\;transfer and its impact on scientific tools and practices. It will furthermore allow for discussions of&nbsp\;&nbsp\;different ways in which such transfers of knowledge can be studied. Processes of knowledge&nbsp\;transfer\, for example the transfer of psychological concepts and techniques into economics\, occur&nbsp\;in various &lsquo\;contexts&rsquo\;. They can involve particular scientists\; occur in distinct spatial locations\;&nbsp\;undertaken with regard to distinct problems\; be fostered by a network of scholars\; take place in&nbsp\;specific institutional environments\; or are enforced through different uses of scientific theories\,&nbsp\;models or other techniques. The two-fold goal of the workshop is\, first\, identifying common&nbsp\;patterns underlying knowledge transfer in distinct disciplines that provide insights into how such&nbsp\;processes generally occur. Second\, we will discuss empirical\, formal\, and qualitative methods from&nbsp\;history\, philosophy\, and sociology of science regarding their usefulness to study processes of&nbsp\;knowledge transfer. Both aspects are important to improve our understanding of knowledge&nbsp\;transfer\, to specify the conditions under which it can be successful\, and assess the ways in which it&nbsp\;contributes to progress in science.<br><br>Submissions of contributed papers are welcome from researchers with interests in knowledge&nbsp\;transfer in all disciplines. We invite submissions of extended abstracts of max. 1000 words by June 7\, 2015. The&nbsp\;workshop language is English.&nbsp\;<br><br>To submit your abstract\, please send a pdf-file (including full name and institution) to&nbsp\;c.s.herfeld@gmail.com. There will be no registration fee for the workshop.&nbsp\;<br><br><br><br></p>
