As the consequence of another successful Peace Science conference in Amsterdam organized by the Network of European Peace Scientists (NEPS) in 2004, we have moved forward to organize another one. It will be held on June 27-29, 2005 at the Tinbergen Institute, at the University of Amsterdam, whose address is Roeterstraat 31, 1018 WB Amsterdam. Registration fee will be 35 Euro.
Accordingly, at the forthcoming June 2005 conference there will be continuing emphasis on Research methods in peace science, but also regular papers dealing with all aspects of the peace science field, from pure abstract theory to practical applied research.
