New Developments in Ethnomethodology 2025:


Details:

Dear Colleagues,

We are excited to announce that New Developments in Ethnomethodology will be held at the Centre for Criminology and Socio-Legal Studies (CrimSL) at the University of Toronto, July 7-9.

New Developments is a series dedicated, among other things, to platforming graduate students and early career scholars working in sociology and its cognate disciplines from an Ethnomethodological perspective. It brings together ECRs and mid-career scholars, with an aim to producing new collaborations, networks, and opportunities to seek funding to support Ethnomethodologically informed ECRs.

Previous meetings have been held at Liverpool University, UK (2018), Gothe University Frankfurt, Germany (2019), Gothenburg University, Sweden (2023) and Sogang University, Korea (2024). 2025 will mark the first occasion New Developments has been hosted in North America.

The University of Toronto is perhaps not the first institution that comes to mind when thinking about Ethnomethodology. However, there is a history at the institution that extends several decades and generations of Ethnomethodologists. The University has, at various times, been home to Dorothy Smith, Michael Lynch, Ian Hacking, James Heap, Peter Eglin, Gus Brannigan, and other noted Ethnomethodologists. Harold Garfinkel visited UofT and CrimSL in 1980 and 1981 and had considerable impact on CrimSL scholars. This meeting will aim to recapture some of the energy and excitement of those early days of Ethnomethodology, as well as showcasing Ethnomethodological inquiry to scholars currently working at UofT.

There is no cost to attend New Developments. Registration will be required and details on how to register and accommodate options will be circulated shortly. We are working to obtain funding to offset costs for travel and accommodations for graduate students and post-doctoral researchers. Attendees who would benefit from financial support will be asked to identify themselves in the registration process, and notification of the amount of support available will be circulated in early 2025.

Questions about the event can be sent to patrick.watson@utoronto.ca. Please stay tuned for the registration and abstract submission site to go live in the coming week.

Best wishes,

New Developments in EM 2025 Organizing Committee
