This workshop will bring together a group of 30 plus international scholars, primarily anthropologist, to produce a thick description of the causes and consequences of the meltdown of the Icelandic economy. The PI hypothesizes that the crisis involved a complex interaction of cultural, economic, political and ideological variables that played off each other from the 1980s surrounding the creation of Individual Transferrable Quotas in the Icelandic fisheries; it is this complex interaction that makes the case a very interesting one for a thick description methodology. The workshop is scheduled for Fall 2011 at the University Park Campus of Penn State and it is anticipated approximately 30 scholars and graduate students will participate in the 3-day project. The format of the workshop is a standard presentation of scholarly papers with discussion. The attendees will be prepared to discuss specific aspects of the organizing topic and following the workshop the individual papers will be gathered together into a volume, for which the PI Paul Durrenburger and co-organizer, Gisli Paulsson University of Iceland, will produce the introduction and conclusion for the edited volume.

本次研讨会将汇集 30 多名国际学者（主要是人类学家），对冰岛经济崩溃的原因和后果进行详尽的描述。 PI 假设这场危机涉及文化、经济、政治和意识形态变量的复杂相互作用，这些变量自 20 世纪 80 年代围绕冰岛渔业个人可转让配额的创建以来相互影响；正是这种复杂的相互作用使该案例成为一种非常有趣的厚描述方法。该研讨会定于 2011 年秋季在宾夕法尼亚州立大学公园校区举行，预计将有大约 30 名学者和研究生参加为期 3 天的项目。 研讨会的形式是学术论文的标准展示和讨论。 与会者将准备好讨论组织主题的具体方面，研讨会结束后，每篇论文将被收集成一卷，由 PI Paul Durrenburger 和联合组织者冰岛 Gisli Paulsson 大学将为该卷编写引言和结论。
