Research Residential Program at Princeton Institute for International and Regional Studies
Fung Global Fellows Program “International Society: Institutions and Actors in Global Governance”
Princeton University is pleased to announce the call for applications to the Fung Global Fellows Program at the Princeton Institute for International and Regional Studies (PIIRS). Each year the program selects six scholars from around the world to be in residence at Princeton for an academic year and to engage in research and discussion around a common theme. During the academic year 2016/17, the theme for the Fung Global Fellows Program will be “International Society: Institutions and Actors in Global Governance.” The growth of international organizations and transnational actors has brought about the emergence of a dense international society above the nation-state. Under what circumstances do new international organizations or transnational associations emerge, and when do they expand in their membership and jurisdiction? Does international society function as a constraint on states? How do states and societal actors navigate the complex and overlapping jurisdictions of international organizations? In what ways do international organizations and associations function as distinct cultures or as bureaucracies with their own interests?

Quebec in the 1960s : Opening to the World
Au cours des années 1960, le Québec s’ouvre sur le monde. Tant au niveau politique, économique que social et culturel, il cherche à créer, et dans certains cas, à recréer des liens avec l’extérieur dans le but d’accélérer son processus de modernisation. Le groupe de recherche GRIQUERE (2005) désire faire le point sur le sujet en organisant un colloque visant, d’une part, à rendre compte des progrès récents dans les connaissances à ce niveau et d’autre part, identifier les domaines qui ont jusqu’ici été négligés afin d’orienter les recherches futures / During 1960s, Quebec opens to the world. Both at the political, economic, social and cultural levels, Quebec tries to create, and in some cases, to recreate links with the outside world in a way to accelerate its process of modernization. The group of research GRIQUERE (2005) wishes to review the subject by organizing a colloquium aiming, on one hand, to report recent progress in the knowledge at this level and on the other hand, to identify the fields which were neglected up to here to direct the future researches. -
