<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Cambria, serif; ">There is a fundamental relationship between <i>authority and knowledge</i>: the entitlement to know, to speak, and to act relies upon claims of expertise, power and experience. This conference
aims to bring researchers together who are currently engaged in research concerning the nature, form and function of authority and knowledge socially, culturally, politically, and institutionally. We welcome papers that address the multifaceted ways in which
claims to authority and knowledge permeate everyday social life, political understandings and practices, and policy reform (<i>people, policy, politics</i>).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
