Conference Timings
The conference will commence at 10.00 on Monday 5th May 2008 and
finish at 17.00 on Wednesday 7th May 2008. Registration will be from
09.00 on the opening day of the conference.
Important - Please Note: The ethos of the 'Violence and the Contexts of Hostility' project emphasises dialogue with the issues raised by the conference as a whole and engagement with the people attending the conference. These two elements are essential to the inter- and multi-disciplinary nature of the event. Over the past few years the success of our projects has rested on the continual interaction between delegates for the duration of the conference and beyond. The Steering Group feel it is essential that delegates should be present for the duration of the conference so as to facilitate the exchange of perspectives for which the conference strives, and which any publication should clearly demonstrate.
Papers, Reports and Workshops
Papers should be of no more than 20 minutes duration (circa 8 pages).
Responses to Papers should be of no more than 10 minutes duration.
Work-in-Progress presentations should be of no more than 15 minutes
duration. The time allotted to workshops will be considered on an
individual basis. Other forms of presentation will be considered
on request.
Abstracts are to be submitted by Friday 18th January 2008. These should be emailed either as an attachment or in the body of an email to all of the Organising Chairs: Alejandro Cervantes-Carson and Rob Fisher. Attachments may be in Word, WordPerfect, or RTF formats. You will be notified within 21 days of submission as to whether your proposal has been accepted for presentation.
Both the 300 word abstract and the draft paper will be available on this web site before the conference commences. Papers will initially be available in downloadable .pdf format; if time permits, they will also be available in Word format as well.
