Instructions for Submitting a Paper
1. Submissions are made via the Online submissions at www.eshd.eu web page. The process for submitting
papers is as follows: All authors are asked to submit both: a) a short abstract
(max. 300 words) and b) either an extended abstract (2-4 pages, including
tables) or a completed paper.
2. Extended abstracts must be sufficiently detailed to
allow the session organizer to judge the merits of the paper, including a description
of the topic to be studied, the theoretical focus, the data and research
methods, and the expected findings. Alternatively, authors may submit completed
papers for the organizer to review. If your submission is accepted in a regular
session, you must upload the full paper by July 31, 2014. All papers will be
available on PDF format at www.eshd.eu before
the Conference to allow fruitful discussion.
3. The author making the submission must provide the full
names, affiliations, and email addresses of all co-authors for each submission.
4. You can also propose a complete session. An organizer
has to gather four speakers who will each present a paper on a related topic, a
discussant who will start the discussion with a prepared comment on the papers and
a chair. The roles of session organizer, chair and discussant can be fulfilled
by the same or different persons. Every
speaker should fill out the web pre-registration form. You should say YES to
the question "Does your paper belongs to a complete session
proposal?" and add please the session title at the end of your short
abstract. Please submit them as soon as
possible but before March 14.
5. At the ESHD 2014 only one submission as a first author
