2017 ONLINE MEMBERSHIP ENROLMENT AND RENEWALS

It is now possible to enter your membership for January to December 2017 online, using the RegOnline system we have been using for several years. Click here to go to the Membership Information Page.

We hope this will make the process simpler, and save you mailing costs!

If you have questions about the new process, please email the ISSS Office (enquiryisss@gmail.com).

The Work of John Bowlby

New Publication

The ISSS was funded to produce a report on the work of John Bowlby, a colleague of those working at the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences at Stanford in the 1950s and who later based his work within the Tavistock Institute in the UK. A copy of the report is now available, and can be downloaded here at no cost:

2008/08 CfP deadline, ANZSYS, Perth, December 1-2, 2008

This is a preliminary notice to announce that ANZSYS will be held in 1-2 December, 2008 at the Mount Lawley campus of Edith Cowan University in Perth. I would appreciate it if you could circulate this information. At the moment little has been decided except the dates and the venue but with preliminary discussions it appears that the closing date for papers will be in late August. We will be holding ANZSYS at the same time as our security conferences but ANZSYS will be distinct from them - it just makes logistical sense to do it this way.
