  *3 CALLS FOR PAPERS RELATED TO COMMONS * *FOR UPCOMING CONFERENCES IN
2014*   *Call for papers - Workshop 'Common People, Common Rules.
Institutions and Self-Governance in Historical Perspective', Pamplona
(Spain), October 30-31, 2014 (deadline abstracts March 25, 2014)*

    On October 30-31, 2014, the research group involved in the research
project '*"Common Rules". The regulation of institutions for managing
commons in Europe, 1100 - 1800'*
<http://www.collective-action.info/_PRO_NWO_CommonRules_Main>will organize
an international workshop, hosted by the University of Navarre in Pamplona
(Spain). This workshop is aimed to discover how efficient and effective
regulation can be developed, executed by well-functioning institutions.
Earlier research has shown that regulation could allow an efficient use of
common pool resources, even under severe external stress, but we do not
know exactly how the commoners made sure that the body of rules remained
effective, efficient, and sufficiently simple for all to understand and
apply. Trying to find an answer to this research question will be the main
focus of this workshop. Paper abstracts have to be submitted *by the 25th
of March, 2014*. The organizers encourage in particular submissions that
introduce new historical source material and novel ways of using historical
sources, inspired by other social sciences. The organizers welcome in
particular quantitative and long-term studies, that are also able to
connect historical developments to current evolutions. A selection of the
best papers will be considered for publication as part of a special issue
for a relevant peer-reviewed journal in the field (in English).
