Individual Paper

BASEES will consider proposals for individual papers that are not associated with a panel. They will be reviewed by the relevant stream organiser and added to a suitable panel within that stream. Please do not join a panel that you have not been invited to.

Abstracts should be no more than 350 Words. Abstracts can be typed directly into the submission system, but if you copy and paste to submit your abstract from, for example, MS Word, ensure that you remove all formatting instructions.

To submit an abstract, 

• Use the submission link 
• Log in or create an account. 
• Complete the form fields, including Title, Abstract, and Authors and affiliations. 
• When you are finished, click Submit at the bottom right of the form. 
• If any required fields are missing or you are over the word/character limit, the submission will be marked incomplete until corrected.
• If you need to edit an existing abstract, open your event dashboard and click View, then Edit on the relevant submission
• If you are part of a panel, it will offer you a choice to link your submission to that panel

Please do not join a panel that you have not been invited to.

Panel

A panel involves the presentation of prepared papers on a related topic, followed by structured discussion of those papers and Q&A.

• A panel proposal should have a Chair and a minimum of 3 to a maximum of 4 papers. It can have a discussant, but this is not obligatory. The chair may also serve as a discussant or a paper presenter.
• One of the panel members must create the panel and invite the panellists. 
• After you have created your panel, you must submit your abstract, which you can do here.
• When you have done this and clicked Submit, the next screen will show a list of available Panels at the top of your completed submission.
• Click ATTACH next to the Panel you have created/ been invited to.
• If you require further assistance, please click here.

Please do not join a panel that you have not been invited to.

Roundtable/ Book Discussion Roundtable

• Roundtables involve the structured discussion of a topic/theme, without the presentation of papers.
• A roundtable proposal should have a Chair and a minimum of 3 to a maximum of 5 roundtable speakers.
• Roundtable speakers will not present a “paper”, i.e. there will be no paper titles in the programme. The chair may also serve as a roundtable speaker, if necessary.
