Update October, 10^th 2020:

"Causality in the Social Sciences II” goes online. All of us read messages like this quite often in the last months. In the backdrop of high uncertainty in organizing and the current development of numbers reported nationally and internationally as well as travel restrictions in some countries/institutes, we decided to switch completely to online formats. The decision was hard and we discussed different possible alternatives. Even if originally planned as an intensive two-day face-to-face workshop, we finally decided to go online with the workshop. However, we think that we can still create a nice and meaningful workshop with fruitful discussions for all participants.

As every change also has its good side: This offers us the possibility to open up the workshop for additional audience ("passive participants") in addition to the presenters ("active participants").

Therefore, we would like to invite researcher from all fields of Social Sciences interested in Causality to participate in single sessions or the whole event. The detailed programme can be found on the workshop website https://causality2020.dzhw.eu/. Registration for participation is possible via our website until Monday, October 05^th 2020, 12:00 a.m. (UTC+2). Please note: Registration is free of charge, but mandatory in order to get access data for the online conference.
