Call for Session Organizers
| - 1 - |
| All sessions have to be international, i.e. each session should include speakers |
| of at least 2 countries (exceptions will need good reasons). Further each paper |
| must contain a methodological problem (any area, qualitative or qualitative) |
| -> Applications are very welcome, however, they are not sufficient |
| - 2 - |
| Speakers can only have one talk per session. This is also true for joint papers: |
| e.g. - it will not be possible for A and B to present at the same time one paper |
| as B and A during the same session. This would just extend the time allocated |
| to each speech in the different sessions |
| - 3 - |
| We will have sessions of 90 minutes with 4 papers and sessions of 120 minutes |
| with 6 papers. Session organizers can invite as many speakers as they like: the |
| number of sessions depends on the number of papers you have (as in Cologne |
| and Amsterdam) |
| - 4 - |
| There will be several calls for papers. Firstly session organizers can prepare a |
| call for papers on their own initiative, then in a different moment there will also |
| be a common call for papers and session organizers can ask anybody to submit |
| a paper. If they don't wish to consider a paper addressed to them, they should |
| inform the author and forward the paper to the conference chair, Simona Balbi. |
| If the abstract is interesting then the organizing committee will offer it to other |
| session organizers, otherwise the paper will be rejected |
| - 5 - |
| Papers directly addressed to the organization committee (and those forwarded |
| from the session organizer) will be offered to session organizers (after proofing |
| for quality). It is then up to the organizers to include a paper in their session(s) |
| or not. If they think it does not fit into the session(s), the papers should be sent |
| back as soon as possible to the organizing committee so that he can offer it to |
| another session organizer |

| Please send full proposal for session by the end of September 2007 (one page) |
| to Simona Balbi (simona.balbi@unina.it). Till the end of October 2007 we will |
| inform about the acceptance of the proposals, then we will start the official call |
| for papers. Deadline will be on the end of January 2008 |
