CALL FOR PAPERS - CLOSED

Following the special keynote opening session on Wed 7 September at which delegates will hear from renowned Professors Wang Hui and David Derwei Wang regular panels will take place on 8 and 9 September.

We welcome panel and paper proposals in any field of Chinese Studies. We are especially keen to attract panel proposals that bring a group of scholars together to discuss a major issue in the study of China.

Submission Procedure:

All proposals should include: name(s), affiliation and contact details (email).

Proposals for panels should include: list of proposed presenters; list of titles of individual papers; abstracts of each paper (up to 250 words); proposed chair/moderator; discussant, if relevant.

All proposals should be submitted by 2 May 2011 to Frances Christensen (frances.christensen@ed.ac.uk)

Panels and papers will be selected according to academic merit, and BACS will inform proposers of the outcome of the assessment week commencing 16 May 2011.

The Association has an e-journal and, if they wish, presenters will be welcome to submit their papers for peer-review for inclusion in the journal.
