Scholars submitting papers to AIB-CEE Chapter Conference are expected to act professionally in their research and conference participation, following relevant professional codes of ethics and showing respect to our diverse members. This requires adhering by the following standards:
Responsibility to Review
Authors submitting papers to the conference commit to reviewing papers for the conference.
Responsibility to Present
For sole-authored papers that are accepted, authors commit to register for the conference and present the paper, and if co-authored, at least one of the authors will do so. No personal requests for variation of time slots will be accommodated and authors will present in the time slots allocated.
Plagiarism
Plagiarism will not be tolerated. Authors assure that submitted papers are their own work and appropriate credit is given to sources, including any previous work of the authors themselves.
The conference organizers reserve the right to reject papers by authors not acting professionally. A random selection of papers will be submitted for plagiarism checks, and any paper will be rejected if it is assessed to violate professional standards.
Authors must make two initial submission decisions: choose (1) the most appropriate track, and (2) the most appropriate type of paper.
Tracks: Please refer to the Topics and tracks for details and chair information for each track. All single country studies must focus on IB-relevant topics such as MNCs, international institutions, trade, global value chains, etc. Please note that Track 7 requires only abstract submission.
Types of paper: Competitive papers should be close to a publishable state, and will be considered for nomination for best paper award, and journal publication. Discussion papers may be in an earlier stage of development.
All abstract submissions should be made through the online submission system as the part of the full paper. All submissions must be made on or before June 23, 2014.
