> Dear all,
>
> I invite everyone to consider participating in the 14th Global Conference
> of the International Association for the Study of the Commons meeting,
> which will be held in Japan on 3-7 June 2013. The season for submitting
> proposals for complete panels, individual papers, posters, videos, and
> even round tables is now on, until 30 September 2012.
>
> I particularly encourage people in Japanese studies to consider proposing
> panels that are related to the theme and sub-themes of the conference.
>
> COMMONERS AND THE CHANGING COMMONS: LIVELIHOODS, ENVIRONMENTAL SECURITY,
> AND SHARED KNOWLEDGE
>
> This is the IASC's first meeting ON a commons and the first one to be
> sponsored BY commoners -- who are in a position to do this because they
> held on to their commons through 150 years of struggle against the
> Japanese government, greatly to their eventual advantage. The victorious
> commoners claim ownership of the north side of Mount Fuji (Kitafuji).
> Their federation of commons-owner-groups is hosting the meeting. Mount
> Fuji is easily reached by express trains and buses from either of Tokyo's
> international airports. Although Mount Fuji is a prime tourist
> destination, we have timed the conference for a week that is both Mount
> Fuji's sunniest week of the year and still outside of peak tourism season,
> so accommodations can be found that are as low as Y3000/night with shared
> bathrooms. This is your chance to visit a truly spectacular place
> (nominated as a World Heritage Site) with an indisputable intellectual
> justification for the trip. The conference itself will include workshops
> and study trips related to the Kitafuji commons, as well as a day of field
> trips to other locations to look at water, fisheries, irrigation, hot
> springs, and other agricultural commons.

> It seems that H-Net lists do not allow attachments, so I am sending this

> like a copy of the brochure, please email either Margaret McKean
