Instructions to authors

For full papers and papers in development, authors should submit extended abstracts, in English, on the understanding that accepted submissions will be developed into a paper for the actual conference.

Extended abstracts (in English) not to exceed 1000 – 1200 words, and should contain:

  • Title of the paper without information about authors and their affiliations
  • Summary description of the theoretical framework and hypotheses (where applicable)
  • Research design and approach to data analysis (where applicable)
  • Key findings and theoretical contributions, as well as practical implications (where applicable)

We also welcome proposals for paper symposia and panel discussions on a particular topic. These should describe the key objectives, overview of proposed presentations and how they relate to the main topic, and the planned speakers and discussants. The length of proposals should not exceed 2500 words, including references.

All extended abstracts and proposals will undergo blind review and either accepted or rejected for inclusion in the conference programme. The accepted papers will be included in the conference proceedings and distributed exclusively to the conference participants.
