> Looking after your research data is essential. Good data management practice minimizes the risk of data loss, ensures research integrity and facilitates replication; it enhances data security, research efficiency and reliability, and saves time and resources. Moreover, data management planning and data reuse is increasingly a requirement of funding organizations. This workshop extensively discusses ways to ensure the security and integrity of your research data. It is designed to address the needs of social science researchers working with either qualitative or quantitative data. Workshop sessions include basic concepts of data management, advice on writing a data management plan, licensing data for reuse or to reuse, consent and ethics for data reuse, file formats, documentation and metadata, data storage, back-up and security, data management in collaborative research, and archiving your data. Participants are expected to be advanced students or researchers in the social sciences or humanities. A good command of English is required.

> Registrations will be accepted on a first-come-first-served basis. If required, a waiting list will also be ordered by application date. Further information: http://www.gesis.org/index.php?id=2194

> - CARLO ALBERTO INTERNATIONAL SUMMER SCHOOL: Intergenerational Relationships in a Globalized World
>
>
>
> We are glad to present you the Carlo Alberto International Summer School 2011 on ‘Intergenerational Relationships in a Globalized World’ co-organized by: Doctoral School in Political Science and International Relations (University of Turin); Graduate School in Social and Political Sciences (University of Milan); Collegio Carlo Alberto, Moncalieri (Turin). This summer school (23-27 July 2012) focuses on the theoretical and empirical complexities brought about by the introduction of the perspective of migration and geographic mobility in the analysis of intergenerational relations in ageing societies. It integrates the rich scholarship on the impact of demographic ageing on generational roles and intergenerational exchanges with that on migrations, considered from the triple perspective of the receiving and sending countries, and that of the migrants themselves as members of intergenerational networks.
> The International Summer School is devoted to PhD students and junior researchers. The organization of the Summer School is centred around two daily sessions: a lecture on the state of the art of a given topic by a scholar of international standing followed by a general discussion; a second session, chaired by the same scholar, where participants present and discuss their papers related to the topic. This is an opportunity for participants to receive suggestions for their on-going research or PhD completion.
> The International Summer School lasts five days. Applications should be addressed to Dr. Cornelia Lawson (iss.dss@???) by May 31st, 2012. Further information available here: http://www.graduateschool.unimi.it/carlo_alberto_ss_2012.html

>

>
> The great number and variety of protests around the globe that have defined the year 2011, provide the focus of the Annual ASMI conference 2012 (London, 23-24 November) on the topic of protest in Italy: How does Italy protest – throughout its history and in the present? How do individuals, organisations and institutions express their opposition and protest? Which forms of protest (e.g. civil, political, folkloristic, intellectual, ideological, organisational, legal, illegal) have been established with time and which other forms have developed recently? What are the issues, topics and conditions that make Italians turn to protest?
>
> The purpose of the conference is to bring together scholars from different disciplines and to investigate the historical, political, sociological and cultural roots and forms of expression of protest and protest movements and their dynamics and reception in Italy – topics surprisingly unexplored by academia. Issues like the contents, strategies, agents, participants, promoters, social dynamics or social and political consequences of protest have been hardly analyzed so far.

>
> La questione dei generi si incrocia da più di un secolo con la natura, la qualità ed il funzionamento dei sistemi politici democratici. Declinata più specificamente come problema del mancato/ridotto riconoscimento del ruolo delle donne in politica (e non solo), la questione ha attraversato almeno quattro diverse stagioni: a) quella del riconoscimento formale del diritto all’elettorato attivo e passivo anche femminile; b) quella del dibattito sul raggiungimento sostanziale di pari opportunità e pari rappresentanza, tramite azioni positive, quote rosa, ecc.; c) quella della richiesta di servizi (sociali, in primis, a tutela della maternità e dell’equa ripartizione dei carichi domestici tra donna e uomo) a garanzia dell’effettiva praticabilità di ruoli politici da parte delle donne; d) quella, infine, riconducibile all’idea che l’adozione di un più completo punto di vista di genere anche in politica non possa che accrescere la sensibilità verso i bisogni di tutte le persone e migliorare la qualità complessiva della politica e del governo.
