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>).</span></p><p style="margin:0px; padding:0px;" > </p><p style="margin:0px; padding:0px;" > </p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Cambria, serif; "> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Cambria, serif; ">Please follow this link to view the full call for papers, and to submit an abstract before the closing date, <b>November 30, 2013: </b></span><a style="font-family: Cambria, serif; font-size: 14px; " href="http://authorityandknowledge.wordpress.com">http://authorityandknowledge.wordpress.com</a><span style="font-family: Cambria, serif; font-size: 14px; "> </span><span style="font-family: Cambria, serif; font-size: 14px; "> </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color: rgb(31, 73, 125); "> </span></p></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 14px; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; "><div>-- </div><div>Dr Jessica Gerrard<br />McKenzie Postdoctoral Research Fellow<br /> </div><div> </div><div>Melbourne Graduate School of Education</div><div>Level 7, 100 Leicester Street<br />University of Melbourne</div><div>Melbourne 3010<br /><br />(03) 9035 7696</div><div> </div></div></div><div><span id="OLK_SRC_BODY_SECTION" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 14px; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; "><style type="text/css"><!--
