3rd European Workshops in International Studies,
University of Tübingen, Germany, 6 – 8 April 2016
Welcome to EWIS 2016! The European Workshops in International Studies are the smaller of the two main annual conferences of the European International Studies Association – but small now means 300 participants! This shows that the workshop format is attractive to many of our members. The chance to discuss papers in-depth in a more informal setting while still enjoying the conference surroundings and being able to mingle with colleagues across the discipline give EWIS its particular atmosphere.
Tübingen offers a unique setting for EWIS. The second-oldest university town in Germany (the University was founded in 1477), it looks as being taken from a picture book on Germany with its cobbled streets and half-timbered houses, its gothic church and the many squares to meet up. Make sure that you pay a visit to the university museum in the castle, which houses many treasures from some of humankind’s oldest artefacts to the kitchen in which DNA was discovered. Walk around the streets and alleys on a market day (Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday). Take the bus to the tranquil setting of Bebenhausen monastery, or the train to the cathedral town and Roman ruins of Rottenburg. And if you have some time before or after the workshops, rent a car to climb up to the Hohenzollern castle, probably the most well-known German castle after Neuschwanstein.
