Abstract submission

Researchers wishing to contribute to the conference are invited to submit a structured abstract for either a regular paper or a research note (in Word format) of 750-1000 words (references not included) by April 9, 2022 (extended deadline). The abstract should address:

• Theoretical and empirical background and relevance.
• Research objectives, problem and/or hypotheses.
• Research design.
• Analysis and discussion.
• Expected contribution.

The extended abstract has to fit the overall theme and/or topics suggested for the conference. A high-quality abstract might be rejected if it is outside the scope and the theme of the conference.

CINet members can also submit a full paper or completed research note for review at this stage. Members requesting such a review must also submit by April 9, 2022.

Please check and carefully follow the author guidelines and use the right template (below).

All submissions will undergo a double blind peer review. The outcome of the review will be sent to the authors by May 15, 2022.
