Suddenly everyone hates bankers. These days it’s hard to tell your left from your right. Sure the old world has gone, but has anything replaced it? At Crunch Times, the post- meets the recession. Sustainability isn’t just a new word for productivity. Technological innovation won’t solve our problems. Knowledge has to be more than transferred. Can science really make a difference? It’s time to think harder about the social and the natural.
From the sociology of dance to the sociology of death, the 2009 SAA(NZ) conference will have the usual suite of challenging and intellectually stimulating papers, but it will also address the economic and environmental challenges currently facing us. Keynote speakers, Dr Paul Reynolds, Associate Professor Hugh Campbell and Professor Ghassan Hage will address these challenges and a special plenary on Monday morning will examine issues of sustainability in relation to agri-food. In addition there will be a papers stream on Monday around the environment and sustainability.
