Now Accepting Applications: Theory Development Workshop at Oklahoma State University (with Per Bylund)

The Institute for the Study of Free Enterprise announces a new workshop for PhD students and early-career faculty. From the workshop announcement:

We are once again hosting a Theory Development Workshop (TDW) here in Stillwater, OK.  This year’s workshop will take place on Wednesday, November 12, and will, again, be specifically oriented toward free markets and market processes.  And, once again, we wholeheartedly welcome submissions from an Austrian perspective.

The workshop will be led by Dr. Sharon Alvarez (University of Pittsburgh), Dr. David Townsend (Virginia Tech) and Dr. Per Bylund (Oklahoma State University).

We have titled the workshop Exploring & Developing New Theoretical Approaches to Market-Based Management & Entrepreneurship.

It would be great to have a significant portion of the participants be those specializing in theory development from an Austrian perspective.

Please forward this notice to any and all PhD students and early-career faculty (i.e. non-tenured) who might be interested in participating.

The application merely requires a 3-paragraph draft “Introduction” in accordance with the guidelines set forth by Jay Barney in his Academy of Management Review article entitled “Positioning a Theory Paper for Publication” which can be found here or here.

Young scholars interested in participating (PhD students and early-career faculty) can submit conceptual-paper ideas any time between now and next Friday, October 17.  Young scholars who are accepted as participants and attend the workshop (and are not Oklahoma residents) will receive a $1,000 travel & lodging stipend.

In addition, any and all students and faculty are invited to attend as observers.

Those interested in participating or attending can pre-register at bit.ly/TDW-Pre.  Those interested in participating will then receive a separate link to the online submission form.
