Paper Proposals for Conferences
Two ways to submit paper proposals to conferences:
- Through a panel proposal: Prospective Panel Chairs must propose between three to five Papers at the time of proposing a Panel. If your Paper is part of a Panel, you do not need to submit it separately.
- Direct submission: Papers not included in a Panel proposal can be submitted to one or more Sections.
Information Needed for Paper Proposals:
- The Section number and/or title to which you are proposing your paper
- Paper title
- An abstract (maximum 500 words)
- Three to eight keywords from the predetermined list to indicate the Paper's subject, theme, and scope
- Presenter's email address, if different from the submitter and co-author (if applicable), as registered in their My ECPR accounts
*Keywords are used to categorise Panels, Sections and Papers, enabling users to search the online programme.
Key Dates and Notification
Dates for Panel and Paper proposals are announced via the Events Newsletter and on the ECPR website.
Proposers will receive notification of the outcome of their submission via email.
For detailed information on dates and deadlines, visit the ECPR website.
Important Note: Papers uploaded to the ECPR website are accessible only to registered participants via the ECPR Events App. This is the best way to ensure your work is visible. You may delete your Paper(s) at any time via your My ECPR account.
Proposal outcome and next steps
Check the instructions below for your next actions depending on your proposal status:
| If your proposal is accepted |
|
| If you cannot attend |
|
| If your Paper has been marked as reserved | We will contact you if a space becomes available, but this will depend on when slots open up. Unfortunately, we cannot predict when that might be, but the ECPR coordinators will reach out at the soonest time possible. |
