The keywords for panel programs which are approved by the network committee of EAEH 2015 will be available from April 15.

Instructions for Submitting a Single Paper

1. Submissions should be made via the online submissions at the www.aeaeh.org web page. The process for submitting papers is as follows: All authors should submit a short abstract (max. 300 words) and provide other appropriate professional information.

Preference will be given to papers that are part of a complete panel program (see below); however, the Program Committee will accommodate as many individual proposals as we can, assembling those accepted into coherent panels.

2. If your submission is accepted in a regular session, you must upload the full paper by September 30, 2015. All papers will be available only for the participants in PDF format on the conference web site before the conference to encourage more 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. At the EAEH 2015 only one submission as a first author is allowed; participants may however co-author other papers.

Instructions for Submitting a Complete Session Proposal

You can also propose a complete session on line. In addition to full panels reporting research results, round tables, book discussion sections, and individual poster proposals are welcome. Stay within the proposal guidelines for abstracts and submissions as noted above for individual paper proposals. An organizer has to gather 3 or 4 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 and upload their own paper. Please submit your registration as soon as possible after April 15 but before August 31, 2014.

If you have questions, please contact eaeh2015@issjp.com or you can contact Miss Hsiao-yun Liu, Academia Sinica (hsyunliu@gate.sinica.edu.tw).
