From the announcement:
Standardisation is omnipresent in communication, production, negotiation,
and trade between partners. The means and processes of standardisation
have been explored in industrial production and the manufacturing of large
quantities, in the development of state health administrations and drug
regulations, and in changes in therapeutic and bedside practices.
This workshop will be centred on an exchange between historians, economists,
political scientists and sociologists. The goal is to strengthen historical
observations and examinations of standards by confronting diverging
interpretations of standards, standardization and parallel entities, such
as routines, norms and codes. We herein bring together studies that link
the concept of standardization to a larger history of health and medicine,
studies those that take a theoretically inspired approach of the
relationship of standardization in economy and science, as well as
contributions that look to apply, criticize or explore these concepts with
regard to pharmaceuticals and history of drugs.
