Contribution selection criteria and peer review process

Proposals should be submitted via the Submit page of the present web site. They must include a title, a summary in a maximum of 300 words and 5 keywords. The author should enter his/her university or establishment and add a short bibliography, as well as a short biography (5 lines maximum), in one or two separate files.

The working languages of the symposium (no interpretation provided) will be French, English and Spanish. Contribution summaries may be drafted in either one of the three languages. Contributions in other languages are welcome, subject to specific interpreting arrangements: in that case, authors must provide a translation of the summary in one of the three working languages and indicate in the “Comments” section, whether they will be accompanied by an interpreter and what kind of interpreting will be provided (simultaneous, consecutive or liaison).

All contributions will be double-blind peer reviewed by the Scientific Committee members. The following criteria will be used to review contribution proposals: relevance to the overall symposium theme, academic merit, originality, objectives, analysis methodology and the quality of a provisional or already finalised conclusion.

Accepted papers will be given a 30-minute slot in the programme, including 20 minutes for presentation and 10 minutes for questions from the floor.

A selection of papers will be published. Formal publication requirements will be specified after the symposium.
