Through this website, you will be able to submit individual proposals for a Panel Presentation, a Round Table, or a Poster Session.

You may also propose a Group Panel consisting of up to four, pre-arranged individual panel presentations.

In order to promote the participation of CIES members at the conference, individuals will be limited to one paper presentation, regardless of format. However, you are welcome to participate in additional sessions as a panel chair and/or discussant.


GUIDELINES FOR SUBMISSION

As part of the proposal submission process, you will be asked to submit an abstract of approximately 250 words in length.

Your abstract should:
(a) situate your topic;
(b) state the goal of your research;
(c) outline your theoretical/conceptual framework;
(d) outline your methodology/methods; and
(e) summarize your findings.

You will be asked for some supplementary information regarding your proposal, including keywords and regional focus, as you proceed through the proposal submission process.

The Early Submission deadline is 11:59pm EST on October 17, 2010. Submissions will be reviewed on a rolling basis, and individuals who submit their proposals prior to this deadline will receive notification of acceptance or rejection by November 1, 2010.

As an additional incentive for Early Submission, the organizers of CIES 2011 Montreal will try to schedule your presentation towards the middle of this year's conference. In addition, we will do our best to schedule your presentation and any duties (such as chair/discussant) in close proximity.
