Please adhere to the specified word limit. The keywords are important words that figure in your abstract and paper and can also be used as search terms. In the abstract, incorporate answers to the following questions, not necessarily in this order. As this is the sole document using which we shortlist you for the conference, it is meant to be longer and more detailed than conventional abstracts.

 

  • What is your research question? 
  • What makes it international? Explain through its political/social and/or cultural relevance. 
  • How does it relate to the broad theme? You could here draw on the theme itself or the different groupings mentioned. Remember that these aren’t exhaustive but rather meant to outline possible directions. 
  • What is your main argument? 
  • Delineate your structure and methodology. Specify if you plan to have any sections or subsections in your paper and if you optionally wish to incorporate possible case studies.


Please feel free to contact us with any questions. We will respond to emails at [email protected] within 12 hours.
