The deadline for paper and panel/roundtable proposals is Friday, 30 September 2022. To propose a panel or a paper you will need to fill in the electronic proposal form on our website. The submission platform will open in late July.

BASEES welcomes paper, panel and roundtable proposals in the following areas: Politics; History; Sociology and Geography; Film and Media, Languages and Linguistics; Literatures and Cultures; and Economics. In the context of Russia’s war against Ukraine, we particularly welcome proposals that help to push forward the work to decentralise and decolonise the study of the former ‘communist bloc’ of the Soviet Union, Central and Eastern Europe and Asia. The conference especially welcomes participation by postgraduate research students and early career scholars.

Remote attendance:

BASEES is welcoming remote paper presentations and panels that include remote attendees. If you wish to attend remotely, please indicate so when submitting your proposal. However, we cannot accept fully remote panels. The Chair of a panel, who can also be one of the presenters, must attend the conference in-person to lead the session and facilitate the Q&A.
