Two years after the terrorist attacks on New York and the Pentagon, and in the context of
interest in the governance of failed states, what is new about the nature of the
international arena? How can we best address the problems of international governance?
How should our thinking about democratic international governance develop?
We invite proposals for papers and panels in any discipline, and proposals which draw on
academic -practitioner collaboration will be especially welcome. Invited (but not yet
confirmed) plenary speakers are Bill Clinton (former US President), and the celebrated
political analyst and author Gore Vidal.
Over three days we will address six themes:
- new approaches to democratic governance
- globalisation, regionalisation and democracy
- democracy and sub/intra-state governance
- security and democratic governance - international issues
- regulation, accountability and democratic governance
- democracy and development: towards Cosmopolis?
All proposals must be sent to the conference organiser, Dr Alex Warleigh.

partly because it will affect everyone.' (Ian Wilmut)
