Submission Rules


Authors who want to submit a paper must be EAA members in the year of the congress for which they submit. If you are not a member, you will be asked to subscribe for membership 2011 before being allowed to submit.

As a consolidated EAA policy, each individual is limited to one personal appearance on the programme as a presenting author. This policy precludes acceptance of papers for more than one presentation. In other words, an author can submit and present only one paper. However a presenter can always be a non-presenting co-author on additional papers.

Authors are invited to submit full papers. The deadline for the submission of papers is 1 December 2010, 23:59 GMT.

A full paper is a complete scholarly research report that could reasonably be submitted for publication in a public working paper data base such as SSRN.

Papers will be subject to a double-blind review process by the Scientific Committee. So please do NOT include neither a cover page with your submission, nor any type of information that can identify you (no name, no address, no e-mail address, no acknowledgments or thanks). Information typically provided on a cover page will be entered on the on-line submission form.

Papers can only be submitted electronically via this website (please see the page “submission” and follow the instructions on the on-line submission pages). Abstracts will be included in the congress book, so they should not exceed 1.500 characters.

Papers received by postal mail, fax or in writing will not be considered.

Papers should be submitted in English.

Confirmation of acceptance or rejection by the SSC will be given after 10 February 2011 and mailed to the corresponding address of the presenting author (unless another author is selected as a contact person), together with instructions for PSD, PS or RF.

The presenters of an accepted paper must register as a participant for the congress before 28 February 2011.

Please take into account that once a paper is included in the programme, the author should present it the conference or officially notify the organizers of its withdrawal.

In case you have questions, please contact Nicole Coopman, the EAA 2011 Paper Review Coordinator, via e-mail (coopman@eiasm.be).
