Call for Papers: CESI 2018

Abstracts are invited for the Conference theme 'Modernity, Transformative Social Identities and Education in Comparative Contexts' to be held in Vadodara from December 14-16, 2018. The concept note for the Conference and the sub-themes are suggestive of the kind of topics that may be chosen to be presented at the Conference. An abstract is around 750 words and should aim to give a detailed idea of the themes that will finally comprise the body of the full paper. The title of the abstract must be concise and be able to clearly identify the nature of study that has been undertaken. The language of the abstract should be crisp and there should be no unnecessary repetition of ideas. The empirical research based abstracts must provide a clear idea of the key theoretical concepts, methodology and the main research findings. The papers should be original. Mention the sub-theme under which you will like to present your paper. The extended abstracts will be peer reviewed and those individuals whose abstracts are accepted will be invited to submit the full paper. They would be expected to have a valid CESI Life/Annual membership and would be expected to register for the Conference. CESI Membership can be obtained at the Conference Venue as well.

You will first be invited to create a new account and then taken to the CESI 2018 submission page. There click on New Submissions in the upper left corner to get a form in which you can enter your contact details and paste your abstract.  Click on Submit to finish.

 We also invite proposals for organizing panel discussions on sub-themes that are inconsonance with the Conference theme as laid out in the concept note. The theme of the Panel Discussion, the names of speakers (maximum-4), their institutional affiliation and extended abstracts of each of the proposed papers will need to be submitted.
