Dear Delegate,
Welcome to the Tenth International Conference on Interdisciplinary Social Sciences. This conference explores notions of
disciplinarily and interdisciplinary in the human sciences. It represents a marvelous collage of specific instances of the study of social
life worthy of the label ‘science’ as well as presentations which think in more general terms about the problem of method and the
nature of interdisciplinary.
The Social Sciences Conference was held in 2006 at the University of the Aegean in Rhodes, Greece; in 2007 at the
University of Granada, Spain; in 2008 at Monash University Centre, Prato, Italy; in 2009 at the University of Athens, Athens, Greece;
in 2010 at the University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK; in 2011 at the University of New Orleans, New Orleans, USA; in 2012 at the
Universidad Abat Oliba, Barcelona, Spain; in 2013 at Charles University, Prague, Czech Republic; and in 2014 at the University of
British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada. We will hold the 2016 Social Sciences Conference in London, UK at Imperial College London.
In addition to organizing the Social Sciences Conference, Common Ground publishes papers from the conference at
www.thesocialsciences.com/publications/journal. We do encourage all conference participants to submit a paper based on their
conference presentation for peer review and possible publication in the collection. We also publish books at www.thesocialsciences.
com/publications/books in both print and digital formats. We invite conference participants to develop book proposals for original
works, or for edited collections of articles drawn from the journal which address an identified theme. Finally, please join our
online conversation by subscribing to our monthly email newsletter, and subscribe to our Facebook, RSS, or Twitter feeds at www.
thesocialsciences.com.
Common Ground also organizes conferences and publishes journals in other areas of critical intellectual human concern, including
diversity, sustainability, health, learning, and the arts, to name several (www.CommonGroundPublishing.com). Our aim is to create
new forms of knowledge community, where people meet in person and also remain connected virtually, making the most of the
potentials for access using digital media. We are also committed to creating a more accessible, open, and reliable peer review process.
Thank you to everyone who has prepared for this conference including our co-organizers and supporters, The Faculty of Humanities
and Social Sciences at the University of Split. A personal thank you and acknowledgement goes to Jelena Novaković, Sanja Stanić
and everyone at the University of Split who helped organize this year’s conference. In addition, thank you to my Common Ground
colleagues who have put such a significant amount of work into this conference: Monica Hillison, Marta Llorente, Dana Modrowski,
Ana Quintana, and Jessica Wienhold-Brokish.
We wish the best for this conference and hope it will provide you every opportunity for dialogue with colleagues from around the
corner and around the world. We hope you will be able to join us at next year’s Social Sciences Conference, 2-5 August 2016 in London,
UK.
Yours sincerely,
Dr. Homer (Tony) Stavely
Host, Social Sciences Conference

| About Common Ground
Our Mission
Common Ground Publishing aims to enable all people to participate in creating collaborative knowledge and to share that
knowledge with the greater world. Through our academic conferences, peer-reviewed journals and books, and innovative
software, we build transformative knowledge communities and provide platforms for meaningful interactions across diverse
media.
Our Message
Heritage knowledge systems are characterized by vertical separations—of discipline, professional association, institution, and
country. Common Ground identifies some of the pivotal ideas and challenges of our time and builds knowledge communities
that cut horizontally across legacy knowledge structures. Sustainability, diversity, learning, the future of the humanities,
the nature of interdisciplinarity, the place of the arts in society, technology’s connections with knowledge, the changing
role of the university—these are deeply important questions of our time which require interdisciplinary thinking, global
conversations, and cross-institutional intellectual collaborations. Common Ground is a meeting place for these conversations,
shared spaces in which differences can meet and safely connect—differences of perspective, experience, knowledge base,
methodology, geographical or cultural origins, and institutional affiliation. We strive to create the places of intellectual
interaction and imagination that our future deserves.
Our Media
Common Ground creates and supports knowledge communities through a number of mechanisms and media. Annual
conferences are held around the world to connect the global (the international delegates) with the local (academics,
practitioners, and community leaders from the host community). Conference sessions include as many ways of speaking
as possible to encourage each and every participant to engage, interact, and contribute. The journals and book series offer
fully-refereed academic outlets for formalized knowledge, developed through innovative approaches to the processes
of submission, peer review, and production. The knowledge community also maintains an online presence—through
presentations on our YouTube channel, monthly email newsletters, as well as Facebook and Twitter feeds. And Common
Ground’s own software, Scholar, offers a path-breaking platform for online discussions and networking, as well as for
creating, reviewing, and disseminating text and multi-media works.

| About Common Ground España
Common Ground España
Since its inception, Common Ground Publishing has been committed to building bridges between different languages and
cultures, crossing the geographical and linguistic boundaries that slow down the free flow of ideas between the countless
communities that populate the planet. We are truly committed to diversity, and that is why we are striving to create synergies
between the English, Spanish, and Portuguese-speaking knowledge communities that meet every year at the conference and
that interact through the scholarly journals, the book series, and the social networks.
To fulfil this ideal, Common Ground Publishing has launched Common Ground Publishing España in order to create and
develop Latin American knowledge communities based on the Spanish and Portuguese languages and cultures, crossing
geographic, linguistic, and cultural borders. Each of these knowledge communities holds an annual academic conference
(which takes place in parallel to Common Ground’s conferences in English) and manages a peer reviewed scholarly journal,
a book series, and a number of social networks that allow scholars and practitioners to interact with other peers coming from
different geographical, institutional, and cultural origins, as well as to strengthen interdisciplinary discussions.
For the time being, Common Ground Publishing España, whose headquarters are located at the Research Park of the
Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, has developed ten Latin American knowledge communities; Learning; E-Learning and
Innovative Pedagogies; Science in Society; Interdisciplinary Social Sciences; On the Organization; New Directions in the
Humanities; The Image; Book and Libraries; Health, Wellness, and Society; and Technology, Knowledge, and Society.

Social Sciences
Knowledge Community
Exploring disciplinary and
interdisciplinary approaches
within and across the various
social sciences and between
the social and the natural and
applied sciences …
Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Knowledge Community
The Social Sciences Knowledge Community is a forum for discussion of disciplinary and interdisciplinary approaches to
knowledge creation within and across the various social sciences and between the social and the natural and applied sciences.
The community interacts through an innovative, annual face-to-face conference, as well as year-round online relationships, a
family of peer reviewed journals, and book series–exploring the affordances of new digital media. Members of this knowledge
community include academics, teachers, administrators, policy makers, and other education practitioners.
Conference
The conference is built upon four key features: Internationalism, Interdisciplinarity, Inclusiveness, and Interaction.
Conference delegates include leaders in the field as well as emerging scholars, who travel to the conference from all corners
of the globe and represent a broad range of disciplines and perspectives. A variety of presentation options and session types
offer delegates multiple opportunities to engage, to discuss key issues in the field, and to build relationships with scholars
from other cultures and disciplines.
Publishing
The Social Sciences Collection enables members to publish through two media. First, community members can enter a world
of journal publication unlike the traditional academic publishing forums—a result of the responsive, non-hierarchical, and
constructive nature of the peer review process. The Social Sciences Collection provides a framework for double-blind peer
review, enabling authors to publish into an academic journal of the highest standard.
The second publication medium is through the book series, The Social Sciences, publishing cutting edge books in print and
electronic formats. Publication proposal and manuscript submissions are welcome.
Community
The Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Knowledge Community offers several opportunities for ongoing communication among
its members. Any member may upload video presentations based on scholarly work to the community YouTube channel.
Monthly email newsletters contain updates on conference and publishing activities as well as broader news of interest.
Members also join the conversation on Facebook and Twitter, or on our new social media platform, Scholar.

Interdisciplinary Social Sciences 2015 Special Focus
Interdisciplinary Approaches to Contemporary Social Change
Modern societies face a number of overarching changes. The consequences of these changes are equally evident at the local as
well as global level, influencing the everyday lives of individuals and large societal aggregates. The role of the social sciences is
of pivotal significance in the interpretation of these intense social changes. More than other disciplines, the social sciences are
in an integral position to recognize changes and problems, determine causal links, interpret the available information, and
offer solutions.
Accordingly, the aim of the 2015 Social Sciences Conference is to contribute to the identification and understanding of
different recent social issues, with a focus on social changes that we face in the various segments of the social world. The
conference offers a wide range of topics that may be discussed in local and global terms, either through the prism of the social
sciences or through interdisciplinary collaborations.
15
Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Scope and Concerns
The Disciplinary Work of the Social Sciences
Each of the sciences of the social is marked by its distinctive disciplinary modes—the thinking practices of Anthropology,
Archaeology, Behavioral Sciences, Cognitive Science, Communications, Cultural Studies, Demography, Economics,
Education, Geography, Humanities, Law, Management, Media, Politics, Policy Studies, Psychology, Social Welfare, Sociology,
to name some of the principal sciences of the social. The disciplinary variation is so broad that practitioners in some of these
areas may not even consider their discipline a ‘science’, whilst in other disciplines there is a general consensus about the
scientific character of their endeavor.
What is a discipline? Disciplines represent fields of deep and detailed content knowledge, communities of professional
practice, forms of discourse (of fine and precise semantic distinction and technicality), areas of work (types of organization or
divisions within organizations such as academic departments or research organizations), domains of publication and public
communication, sites of common learning, shared experiences of apprenticeship into disciplinary community, methods of
reading and analyzing the world, ways of thinking or epistemic frames, even ways of acting and types of person. ‘Discipline’
delineates the boundaries of intellectual community, the distinctive practices and methodologies of particular areas of
rigorous and concentrated intellectual effort, and the varying frames of reference used to interpret the world.
And what is a science? Some of the studies of the social habitually and comfortably call themselves ‘sciences’, but others do
not. The English word ‘science’ derives from the Latin ‘sciens’, or knowing. Return to the expansiveness of this root, and
studies of the human could lay equally legitimate claim to that word.
‘Science’ in this broadest of senses implies an intensity of focus and a concentration of intellectual energies greater than that
of ordinary, everyday, commonsense or lay ‘knowing’. It is more work and harder work. It relies on the ritualistic rigors and
accumulated wisdoms of disciplinary practices.
These are some of the out-of-the-ordinary knowledge processes that might justify use of the word ‘science’, not only in the
social sciences but also in the natural, physical, mathematical and applied sciences:
Science has an experiential basis. This experience may be based on direct personal intuition of the already-known, on
interests integral to the lifeworld, on the richness of life fully lived. Or it might be experience gained when we move into new
and potentially strange terrains, deploying the empirical processes of methodical observation or systematic experimentation.
Science is conceptual. It has a categorical frame of reference based on higher levels of semantic precision and regularity than
everyday discourse. On this foundation, it connects concept to concept into schemas. This is how science builds theories
which model the world.
Science is analytical. It develops frames of reasoning and explanation: logic, inference, prediction, hypothesis, induction,
deduction. And it sees the world through an always cautiously critical eye, interrogating the interests, motives and ethics that
may motivate knowledge claims and subjecting epistemic assumptions to an ever-vigilant process of metacognitive reflection.
Science is application-oriented. It can be used to do things in the world. In these endeavors, it may be pragmatic, designing
and implementing practical solutions within larger frames of reference and achieving technical and instrumental outcomes.
Or it may be transformative—redesigning paradigms, social being, and even the conditions of the natural world. What, after
all, is the purpose of knowing other than to have an effect on the world, directly or indirectly?
16
Science can be any or all of these experiential, conceptual, analytical, and applied things. Some disciplines may prioritize
one or other of these knowledge processes, and this may be the source of their strength as well as potential weakness. In any
event, these are the kinds of things we do in order to know in the out-of-the-ordinary ways worthy of the name ‘science’.
The Interdisciplinary Work of the Social and Other Sciences
Interdisciplinary, transdisciplinary, or multidisciplinary work crosses disciplinary boundaries. This may be for pragmatic
reasons, in order to see and do things that can’t be seen or done adequately within the substantive and methodological
confines of a discipline. Broader views may prove to be more powerful than narrower ones, and even the more finely grained
within-discipline views may prove all-the-more powerful when contextualized broadly. The deeper perspectives of the
discipline may need to be balanced with and measured against the broader perspectives of interdisciplinarity.
Interdisciplinary approaches may also be applied for reasons of principle, to disrupt the habitual narrowness or outlook of
within-discipline knowledge work, to challenge the ingrained, discipline-bound ways of thinking that produce occlusion as
well as insight. If the knowable universe is a unity, discipline is a loss as well as a gain, and interdisciplinarity may in part
recover that loss.
Interdisciplinary approaches also thrive at the interface of disciplinary and lay understandings. Here, interdisciplinarity is
needed for the practical application of disciplined understandings to the actually existing world. Robust applied knowledge
demands an interdisciplinary holism. A broad epistemological engagement is required simply to be able to deal with the
complex contingencies of a really-integrated universe.
Ways of Seeing, Ways of Thinking, and Ways of Knowing
What are the distinctive modes of the social, natural, and applied sciences? What are their similarities and differences?
In English (but not some other languages), ‘science’ suffers a peculiar semantic narrowing. It seems to apply more
comfortably to the natural world, and only by analogy to some of the more systematic and empirically-based of the human
sciences. It connotes a sometimes narrow kind of systematicity: the canons of empirical method; an often less-than reflective
acceptance of received theoretical categories and paradigms; formal reasoning disengaged from human and natural
consequences; technical control without adequate ethical reflection; an elision of means and ends; narrow functionalism,
instrumentalism, and techno-rationalism; a pragmatism to the neglect broader view of consequences; and conservative
risk aversion. These are some of the occupational hazards of activities that name themselves sciences—social, natural, or
applied. In studying the social setting, however, it’s not good enough just to have a rigorous empirical methodology without a
critical eye to alternative interests and paradigmatic frames of reference, and without a view to the human-transformational
potentials of knowledge work.
Humanistic methodologies sometimes address the social in a deliberate counterpoint to science, distancing themselves from
the perceived narrownesses of scientific method. This move, however, may at times leave science stranded, separated from
its social origins and ends. The natural and technological sciences are themselves more subject to contestation around axes
of human interest than the narrow understanding of science seems to be able to comprehend. Whether it be bioethics, or
climate change, or the debates around Darwinism and Intelligent Design, or the semantics of computer systems, questions of
politics and ideology are bound closely to the ostensible evidence. Faux empiricism is less than adequate to address the more
important questions, even in the natural and technological sciences. Science can be found lacking when it is disengaged from
the humanistic.
17
The humanistic, however, has its own occupational hazards: disengaged critique and supercilious inaction without design
responsibility; political confrontation without systematic empirical foundation; ideological fractiousness without apparent
need for compromise; the agnostic relativism of lived experience and identity-driven voice; voluntarism that leads to a naive
lack of pragmatism and failure in application.
A reconstructive view of the social, natural, and applied sciences would be holistic, attempting always to avoid the occlusions
of narrow methodological approaches. It would also be ambitious, intellectually and practically.
In this context, the Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Knowledge Community pursues two aspirations, two openings. The
first is an intellectual opening, founded on an agenda designed to strengthen the theories, the research methodologies, the
epistemologies, and the practices of teaching and learning about the social world and the relation of the social to the natural
world.
The second opening is pragmatic and inventive. All intellectual work is an act of imagination. At its best, it is ambitious,
risky, and transformative. If the natural sciences can have human ambitions as big as those of the medical sciences—the fight
against MS or cancer or Alzheimer’s, for instance—then the social sciences can have ambitions as large as to settle the relation
of humans to the natural environment, the material conditions of human equality, and the character of the future person.

A Digital Learning Platform
Use Scholar to Support Your Teaching
Scholar is a social knowledge platform that transforms the patterns of interaction in learning by putting students first,
positioning them as knowledge producers instead of passive knowledge consumers. Scholar provides scaffolding to
encourage making and sharing knowledge drawing from multiple sources rather than memorizing knowledge that has been
presented to them.
Scholar also answers one of the most fundamental questions students and instructors have of their performance, “How
am I doing?” Typical modes of assessment often answer this question either too late to matter or in a way that is not clear or
comprehensive enough to meaningfully contribute to better performance.
A collaborative research and development project between Common Ground and the College of Education at the University
of Illinois, Scholar contains a knowledge community space, a multimedia web writing space, a formative assessment
environment that facilitates peer review, and a dashboard with aggregated machine and human formative and summative
writing assessment data.

what constitutes “science” in a social context, and the connections between the social and other
sciences. The journals in this collection discuss the distinctive disciplinary practices within the
sciences of the social and examine examples of these practices. In order to define and exemplify
disciplinarity, the collection fosters dialogue ranging from the broad and speculative to the
microcosmic and practical. In considering the varied interdisciplinary, transdisciplinary, or
multidisciplinary work across and between the social, natural, and applied sciences, the journals in
this collection showcase interdisciplinary practices in action. The focus of papers ranges from the
finely grained and empirical, to wide-ranging multidisciplinary and trans-disciplinary practices, to
perspectives on knowledge and method.

Associate Editors
Articles published in the Social Sciences Collection are peer reviewed by scholars who are active
members of the Social Sciences knowledge community. Reviewers may be past or present conference
delegates, fellow submitters to the collection, or scholars who have volunteered to review papers
(and have been screened by Common Ground’s editorial team). This engagement with the
knowledge community, as well as Common Ground’s synergistic and criterion-based evaluation
system, distinguishes the peer review process from journals that have a more top-down approach to
refereeing. Reviewers are assigned to papers based on their academic interests and scholarly expertise.
In recognition of the valuable feedback and publication recommendations that they provide, reviewers
are acknowledged as Associate Editors in the volume that includes the paper(s) they reviewed. Thus,
in addition to the Social Sciences Collection’s Editors and Advisory Board, the Associate Editors
contribute significantly to the overall editorial quality and content of the collection.

Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Submission Process
Journal Collection Submission Process and Timeline
Below, please find step-by-step instructions on the journal article submission process:
1. Submit a conference presentation proposal.
2. Once your conference presentation proposal has been accepted, you may submit your article by clicking the “Add a
Paper” button on the right side of your proposal page. You may upload your article anytime between the first and the
final submission deadlines. (See dates below)
3. Once your article is received, it is verified against template and submission requirements. If your article satisfies these
requirements, your identity and contact details are then removed, and the article is matched to two appropriate referees
and sent for review. You can view the status of your article at any time by logging into your CGPublisher account at www.
CGPublisher.com.
4. When both referee reports are uploaded, and after the referees’ identities have been removed, you will be notified by
email and provided with a link to view the reports.
5. If your article has been accepted, you will be asked to accept the Publishing Agreement and submit a final copy of your
article. If your paper is accepted with revisions, you will be required to submit a change note with your final submission,
explaining how you revised your article in light of the referees’ comments. If your article is rejected, you may resubmit it
once, with a detailed change note, for review by new referees.
6. Once we have received the final submission of your article, which was accepted or accepted with revisions, our Publishing
Department will give your article a final review. This final review will verify that you have complied with the Chicago
Manual of Style (16th edition), and will check any edits you have made while considering the feedback of your referees.
After this review has been satisfactorily completed, your paper will be typeset and a proof will be sent to you for approval
before publication.
7. Individual articles may be published “Web First” with a full citation. Full issues follow at regular, quarterly intervals. All
issues are published 4 times per volume (except the annual review, which is published once per volume).
Submission Timeline
You may submit your article for publication to the journal at any time throughout the year. The rolling submission deadlines
are as follows:
• Submission Round 1 – 15 January
• Submission Round 2 – 15 April
• Submission Round 3 – 15 July
• Submission Round 4 (final) – 15 October
Note: If your article is submitted after the final deadline for the volume, it will be considered for the following year’s volume.
The sooner you submit, the sooner your article will begin the peer review process. Also, because we publish “Web First,” early
submission means that your article may be published with a full citation as soon as it is ready, even if that is before the full
issue is published.

Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Common Ground Open
Hybrid Open Access
All Common Ground Journals are Hybrid Open Access. Hybrid Open Access is an option increasingly offered by both university
presses and well-known commercial publishers.
Hybrid Open Access means some articles are available only to subscribers, while others are made available at no charge to anyone
searching the web. Authors pay an additional fee for the open access option. Authors may do this because open access is a requirement
of their research-funding agency, or they may do this so non-subscribers can access their article for free.
Common Ground’s open access charge is $250 per article–a very reasonable price compared to our hybrid open access competitors and
purely open access journals resourced with an author publication fee. Digital articles are normally only available through individual
or institutional subscriptions or for purchase at $5 per article. However, if you choose to make your article Open Access, this means
anyone on the web may download it for free.
Paying subscribers still receive considerable benefits with access to all articles in the journal, from both current and past volumes,
without any restrictions. However, making your paper available at no charge through Open Access increases its visibility, accessibility,
potential readership, and citation counts. Open Access articles also generate higher citation counts.
Institutional Open Access
Common Ground is proud to announce an exciting new model of scholarly publishing called Institutional Open Access.
Institutional Open Access allows faculty and graduate students to submit articles to Common Ground journals for unrestricted open
access publication. These articles will be freely and publicly available to the whole world through our hybrid open access infrastructure.
With Institutional Open Access, instead of the author paying a per-article open access fee, institutions pay a set annual fee that entitles
their students and faculty to publish a given number of open access articles each year.
The rights to the articles remain with the subscribing institution. Both the author and the institution can also share the final typeset
version of the article in any place they wish, including institutional repositories, personal websites, and privately or publicly accessible
course materials. We support the highest Sherpa/Romeo access level—Green.
For more information on how to make your article Open Access, or information on Institutional Open Access, please contact us at

Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Journal Awards
International Award for Excellence
The Social Sciences Collection presents an annual International Award for Excellence for new research or thinking in the area
of the social sciences. All articles submitted for publication in the Social Sciences Collection are entered into consideration for
this award. The review committee for the award is selected from the International Advisory Board for the collection and the
annual Social Sciences Conference. The committee selects the winning article from the highest-ranked articles emerging from
the review process and according to the selection criteria outlined in the reviewer guidelines.
This Year’s Award Winner
Dr. Olga Achón Rodríguez, Universitat de Barcelona, Spain
For the Article
“Migratory Fluxes and the Concentration of Foreign Manpower”
Abstract
Once the model of family farming was substituted by an industrial agricultural system of production based on hired labor, the
agricultural catalonian (Spain) union Unió de Pagesos, with the consent of the State, reinvented itself as a provider of services
related to the acquisition of manpower through a recruitment and supply system. The State’s migration polity is responsible
for the emergence of such a system, and we can trace its origin in the symbiotic relationship between the State and the
Union, whose interests- social control of the foreign worker and the just-in-time delivery of labor- are harmonized in it. In
the lodgement, a transformation is intended through different devices -lodgment regulations, the presence of personnel in
charge of the facilities, a visit regime, and exit permissions, among others- close to other institutions, as labor camps, where
individuality is tamed through subordination to a dominating power in order to create a new subject.

Democracy and Democratization in Africa
Lembe M. Tiky
Unlike other studies of democracy and democratization in Africa that start the investigation
with postcolonial developments, this book is a comprehensive study that investigates political
developments in African colonial and postcolonial states. The research finds that centralized and
decentralized African states designed and implemented democratic institutions hundreds of years
before they were ultimately defeated by European powers. This argument turns upside down the
conventional view that the birth place of democracy is the ancient city-state of Athens; it shows that
democracy emerged in Africa and later spread in Greece. Moreover, the book proposes an original
theory of democratization that discusses the conditions of the emergence of democracy in the context
of precolonial Africa.
Analyzing politics in contemporary African states, the study draws a sharp dichotomic line between

democracy and dictatorship and proposes a classification and ranking of these two types of political
regimes in Africa. Looking ahead, this work also discusses and proposes answers to some of the most
important issues regarding the building of democratic regimes in contemporary African states.
The methodological strategy adopted by this project is that of triangulation: comparative historical
analysis, theoretical and empirical analyses contribute to provide a comprehensive explanation of
democratic development in both pre- and postcolonial African states.

The Social Mind:
Language, Ideology, and Social Practice
James Paul Gee
The Social Mind was first published in 1990. It was meant to show that there was no conflict between
sociocultural views of language, learning, and thinking and new psychological views of the mind/
brain. Neural network approaches to the mind argue that the mind is furnished by an unbelievably
large network of neural associations. These associations are based on our lived experiences, which are
different for all of us. It is our social and cultural affiliations that shape and mentor our experiences so
that we can share, collaborate, and communicate in terms of a social mind that we all partially share
and nonetheless also contribute to in unique ways. The book still stands as a leading statement of how
work on situated and embodied cognition leads us to, and contributes to, sociocultural theories of
language and learning.

Health and Human Rights in Ghana:
The Political and Economic Aspect of Health Care
Isidore Bonabom
Many of the people who can afford to pay for health care travel outside Ghana for medical care when
they are faced with serious health problems. Public health care should not be about affluence; it is a
human rights issue. This inevitable link between health and human rights is sometimes overlooked in
the national discourses about public health and individual access to health care. This book examines
the domestic legislation on the public health care system in Ghana. The analysis is situated within the
provisions of international human rights treaties, the medium-to long-term consequences of some
economic policies, the role of the traditional medicine system in public health care, the silent epidemic
of the hepatitis B virus (HBV), and the human rights question in an age of HIV/AIDS in the country.
State responsibility to respect, protect, and fulfil the right to health translates to many responsibilities
for the citizens, not the least of which is providing the framework for good health delivery.

The Social Sciences
Conference
Discussing and examining key
issues in the social sciences,
and building face-to-face
relationships with leading and
emerging scholars from the field
that represent a broad range of
disciplines and perspectives…
Interdisciplinary Social Sciences About the Conference
Conference History
Founded in 2006, the International Conference on Interdisciplinary Social Sciences examines the nature of disciplinary
practices in the study of society, and the interdisciplinary practices that arise in the context of ‘real world’ applications of
social research and theory. It also interrogates what constitutes ‘science’ in a social context, and the connections between the
social and other sciences. The focus of papers ranges from the finely grained and empirical (research practices and results
exemplifying one or more disciplines), to wide-ranging multi-disciplinary and trans-disciplinary perspectives on knowledge
and method.
The International Conference on Interdisciplinary Social Sciences is built upon four key features: Internationalism,
Interdisciplinarity, Inclusiveness, and Interaction. Conference delegates include leaders in the field as well as emerging
scholars, who travel to the conference from all corners of the globe and represent a broad range of disciplines and
perspectives. A variety of presentation options and session types offer delegates multiple opportunities to engage, to discuss
key issues in the field, and to build relationships with scholars from other cultures and disciplines.

Conference Principles & Features
The structure of the conference is based on four core principles that pervade all aspects of the knowledge community:
International
This conference travels around the world to provide opportunities for delegates to see and experience different countries
and locations. But more importantly, the Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Conference offers a tangible and meaningful
opportunity to engage with scholars from a diversity of cultures and perspectives. This year, delegates from over 39 countries
are in attendance, offering a unique and unparalleled opportunity to engage directly with colleagues from all corners of the
globe.
Interdisciplinary
Unlike association conferences attended by delegates with similar backgrounds and specialties, this conference brings
together researchers, practitioners, and scholars from a wide range of disciplines who have a shared interest in the themes
and concerns of this community. As a result, topics are broached from a variety of perspectives, interdisciplinary methods are
applauded, and mutual respect and collaboration are encouraged.
Inclusive
Anyone whose scholarly work is sound and relevant is welcome to participate in this community and conference, regardless
of discipline, culture, institution, or career path. Whether an emeritus professor, graduate student, researcher, teacher,
policymaker, practitioner, or administrator, your work and your voice can contribute to the collective body of knowledge that
is created and shared by this community.
Interactive
To take full advantage of the rich diversity of cultures, backgrounds, and perspectives represented at the conference, there
must be ample opportunities to speak, listen, engage, and interact. A variety of session formats, from more to less structured,
are offered throughout the conference to provide these opportunities.
47
Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Ways of Speaking
Plenary
Plenary speakers, chosen from among the world’s leading thinkers, offer formal presentations on
topics of broad interest to the community and conference delegation. One or more speakers are
scheduled into a plenary session, most often the first session of the day. As a general rule, there are
no questions or discussion during these sessions. Instead, plenary speakers answer questions and
participate in informal, extended discussions during their Garden Sessions.
Garden Conversation
Garden Conversations are informal, unstructured sessions that allow delegates a chance to meet
plenary speakers and talk with them at length about the issues arising from their presentation. When
the venue and weather allow, we try to arrange for a circle of chairs to be placed outdoors.
Talking Circles
Held on the first day of the conference, Talking Circles offer an early opportunity to meet other
delegates with similar interests and concerns. Delegates self-select into groups based on broad
thematic areas and then engage in extended discussion about the issues and concerns they feel are
of utmost importance to that segment of the community. Questions like “Who are we?”, ”What is our
common ground?”, “What are the current challenges facing society in this area?”, “What challenges
do we face in constructing knowledge and effecting meaningful change in this area?” may guide the
conversation. When possible, a second Talking Circle is held on the final day of the conference, for the
original group to reconvene and discuss changes in their perspectives and understandings as a result
of the conference experience. Reports from the Talking Circles provide a framework for the delegates’
final discussions during the Closing Session.
Themed Paper Presentations
Paper presentations are grouped by general themes or topics into sessions comprised of three or four
presentations followed by group discussion. Each presenter in the session makes a formal twentyminute presentation of their work; Q&A and group discussion follow after all have presented. Session
Chairs introduce the speakers, keep time on the presentations, and facilitate the discussion. Each
presenter’s formal, written paper will be available to participants if accepted to the journal.
Colloquium
Colloquium sessions are organized by a group of colleagues who wish to present various dimensions
of a project or perspectives on an issue. Four or five short formal presentations are followed by
commentary and/or group discussion. A single article or multiple articles may be submitted to the
journal based on the content of a colloquium session.
48
Interdisciplinary Social Sciences Ways of Speaking
Focused Discussion
For work that is best discussed or debated, rather than reported on through a formal presentation,
these sessions provide a forum for an extended “roundtable” conversation between an author and
a small group of interested colleagues. Several such discussions occur simultaneously in a specified
area, with each author’s table designated by a number corresponding to the title and topic listed in the
program schedule. Summaries of the author’s key ideas, or points of discussion, are used to stimulate
and guide the discourse. A single article, based on the scholarly work and informed by the focused
discussion as appropriate, may be submitted to the journal.
Workshop/Interactive Session
Workshop sessions involve extensive interaction between presenters and participants around an idea
or hands-on experience of a practice. These sessions may also take the form of a crafted panel, staged
conversation, dialogue or debate—all involving substantial interaction with the audience. A single
article (jointly authored, if appropriate) may be submitted to the journal based on a workshop session.
Poster Sessions
Poster sessions present preliminary results of works in progress or projects that lend themselves to
visual displays and representations. These sessions allow for engagement in informal discussions
about the work with interested delegates throughout the session.

REVISTA INTERNACIONAL DE CIENCIAS SOCIALES INTERDISCIPLINARES
Acerca de nuestro enfoque editorial
Durante 30 años, Common Ground Publishing se ha comprometido con la creación de lugares de encuentro de personas e
ideas. Con 10 comunidades de conocimiento en español y portugués y 24 comunidades en inglés, la visión de Common
Ground es proveer plataformas que reúnan a personas de diversos orígenes geográficos, institucionales y culturales en
espacios donde académicos y otros profesionales puedan conectar por igual a través de distintos campos interdisciplinares de
estudio. Cada comunidad de conocimiento realiza un congreso académico anual alrededor del mundo y está asociada a una
Revista revisada por pares (o a una colección de Revistas), una colección de Libros y un serie de redes sociales, en torno a un
nuevo “espacio social de conocimiento” diseñado y desarrollado por Common Ground: Scholar (http://cgscholar.com/).
A través de sus servicios editoriales, Common Ground tiene como objetivo fomentar los más altos estándares de excelencia
intelectual. Somos muy críticos con las graves deficiencias que existen en el actual sistema de publicaciones académica,
incluyendo las estructuras existentes y las redes exclusivas que restringen la visibilidad de los académicos e investigadores
emergentes en los países en desarrollo, así como los costes e ineficiencias insostenibles asociados con la edición comercial
tradicional.
Para combatir estas deficiencias, Common Ground ha desarrollado un modelo de publicación innovador. Cada una de las
comunidades de conocimiento de Common Ground organiza un congreso académico anual. La cuota de inscripción que
pagan los participantes del congreso por asistir y presentar en estos congresos, les permite enviar un artículo a la revista (o
colección de revistas) asociada sin coste adicional. Así, los autores pueden realizar una presentación en un congreso científico
de su área de investigación, incorporar las críticas constructivas que reciben en respuesta a su presentación y, a continuación,
enviar un artículo sólido para su revisión por pares, sin que el autor tenga que pagar una tasa adicional. Los académicos que
no puedan asistir al congreso en persona, pueden participar de forma virtual, opción que les permite enviar un artículo a la
revista. Usando una parte de la cuota de inscripción para financiar los costes asociados a la producción y comercialización de
las revistas, Common Ground es capaz de mantener unos precios de suscripción bajos, facilitando así el acceso a todos
nuestros contenidos. Todos los participantes del congreso, tanto presenciales como virtuales, pueden subir sus
presentaciones al canal de YouTube de Common Ground, además de tener una suscripción electrónica gratuita a la revista
por un periodo de un año. Esta suscripción permite el acceso a todos los números, presentes y pasados, de la revista en
español/portugués y a la revista (o colección de revistas) en inglés. Además, cada artículo que publicamos está disponible de
forma individual con una tarifa de descarga de $3 para los no abonados, y los autores disponen de la opción de publicar su
artículo en acceso abierto para llegar así a una mayor audiencia y garantizar la difusión más amplia posible.
El riguroso proceso de revisión de Common Ground trata también de abordar algunos de los sesgos inherentes a los
tradicionales modelos de editoriales académicas. El conjunto de evaluadores está compuesto de autores que han presentado
recientemente artículos a la revista, así como de revisores voluntarios cuyos currículos y experiencia académica han sido
evaluados por el equipo editorial de Common Ground. Los artículos son asignados a revisores en base en sus intereses
académicos y experiencia. Al tener voluntarios y a otros autores como posibles revisores, Common Ground evita los
inconvenientes de depender de la red profesional de un solo editor, que con más frecuencia de la deseable conlleva la
creación de grupos de arbitraje cerrado que deciden qué y quién publica. En cambio, Common Ground aprovecha el
excelente talante de los participantes del congreso y de los autores de las revistas para evaluar los trabajos, utilizando un
sistema de evaluación basado en criterios más democráticos e intelectualmente más rigurosos que otros modelos
tradicionales. Common Ground también reconoce la importante labor de los revisores, nombrándoles Editores Asociados de
los volúmenes en los que contribuyen.
A través de la creación de un software asombrosamente innovador, Common Ground también ha comenzado a hacer frente a
lo que considera como un cambio en las relaciones tecnológicas, económicas, geográficas, interdisciplinarias, sociales y de
distribución y difusión del conocimiento. Desde hace más de diez años hemos estado construyendo una editorial muy
mediada por las tecnologías web y las nueves redes sociales, donde la gente pueda trabajar en estrecha colaboración para
aprender, crear y compartir conocimiento.
La tercera y última iteración de este proyecto es un entorno social de conocimiento pionero llamado Scholar
(http://cgscholar.com/). Esta plataforma informática posee un lugar donde los académicos pueden conectarse en red y dar
visibilidad a sus investigaciones a través de una librería personal.
Esperamos que se unan a nosotros en la creación de diálogos entre diferentes perspectivas, experiencias, áreas de
conocimiento y metodologías a través de las interacciones en el seno del congreso, las conversaciones online, los artículos

para la revista o la colección de libros (ambas revisadas por pares).
Revista Internacional de Ciencias Sociales Interdisciplinares
La Revista Internacional de Ciencias Sociales Interdisciplinares tiene como objetivo examinar la naturaleza de las prácticas
disciplinares, y las prácticas interdisciplinares que surgen en el contexto de las aplicaciones del “mundo real”. También se
interroga sobre el significado de la “ciencia” en un contexto social, y las conexiones entre lo social y las demás ciencias
particulares.
La revista discute las prácticas disciplinares distintivas en el seno de las ciencias sociales y examina ejemplos de estas
prácticas. Con el fin de definir y ejemplificar lo que constituye las disciplinas, la revista fomenta el diálogo, ya sea desde una
perspectiva global, teórica y especulativa, o ya sea desde una perspectiva local y empírica. Al considerar las variadas
perspectivas interdisciplinares, trasdisciplinares o multidisciplinares que permean las ciencias sociales, las ciencias naturales
y las ciencias aplicadas, la revista muestra el modo en que las prácticas interdisciplinares entran en acción. El enfoque de los
artículos puede ir desde aportaciones empíricas y estudios de casos, hasta una amplia gama de investigaciones sobre
prácticas multidisciplinares y trasdisciplinares, así como reflexiones sobre el conocimiento sociológico y sobre las
metodologías aplicables.
La Revista Internacional de Ciencias Sociales Interdisciplinares es revisada por expertos y respaldada por un proceso de
publicación basado en el rigor y en criterios de calidad académica, asegurando así que solo los trabajos intelectuales
significativos sean publicados.

Acceso Abierto
Las revistas de Common Ground ofrecen un modelo de acceso abierto híbrido a los autores de los artículos. Se trata de
un nuevo modelo, en pleno auge en el seno del sector de las publicaciones académicas. Este servicio es ofrecido cada
vez más por las editoriales universitarias y por editoriales comerciales de prestigio.
Acceso Abierto Híbrido significa que algunos artículos están disponibles sólo para suscriptores, mientras que otros
están disponibles gratuitamente para cualquier persona que busca en la web. Los autores que estén interesados en
tener su artículo en acceso abierto, es decir accesible de forma gratuita en la web, deben abonar una cantidad adicional
si desean hacer efectiva esta interesante opción. Cada vez más agencias de financiación, tanto gubernamentales como
fundaciones públicas y privadas, están exigiendo que los artículos de sus investigadores sean publicados en acceso
abierto. A cambio, dichas agencias ofrecen financiación adicional a dichos autores para poder abonar la cantidad
estipulada por la editorial. Infórmese en su agencia de financiación, en su centro de investigación o en su universidad
para solicitar una ayuda por este concepto.
Los beneficios de convertir su artículo en acceso abierto son considerables y empíricamente comprobados.
Innumerables trabajos de investigación han probado que un artículo en acceso abierto aumenta no sólo su visibilidad
y su accesibilidad y por tanto, también el número de lectores potenciales, sino que además puede aumentar el número
de citas recibidas en más de un 250%

monetaria, fundamentos de microeconomía, historia del pensamiento económico y análisis alternativos para la
incorporación del dinero y el espacio financiero dentro del modelo macroeconómico ortodoxo. En la actualidad mi
investigación abarca análisis aplicados sobre “los impactos de los procesos de financiarización dentro de las economías en
desarrollo, en particular, en México”. Éste tema lo desarrollo dentro de un proyecto posdoctoral que realizo en la universidad
libre de Berlín. Además, me encuentro trabajando en un proyecto sobre “el impacto de la concentración del mercado
petrolero en la emergencia de los biocombustibles, una alternativa para reducir la dependencia petrolera”. Dicho proyecto lo
desarrollo en conjunto con la doctora Alicia Puyana, quien es profesora de tiempo completo en FLACSO sede México, y lo
discuto con el grupo de investigación “Entre Espacios” sede Berlín.
