Society for Business Ethics Annual Meeting

Call For Submissions

August 6-9, 2009

Allerton Hotel, <st1:place w:st="on"><st1:city w:st="on">Chicago</st1:city>, <st1:state w:st="on">Illinois</st1:state></st1:place>

Submission Deadline:  March 1, 2009

The SBE cordially invites you to submit electronic copies of your paper, panel proposal, or workshop (MSWord or .pdf preferred) to Joanne Ciulla (sbe.program.chair@gmail.com). We will only consider electronic submissions. To help us match submissions with reviewers, please categorize your paper using a three-letter code from the list below.* List at least one category from Paradigms, Application Contexts, and Methodologies or as many as apply (e.g., P-5, 11, 13; A-4; M-1, 6).  We will also consider submissions that do not "fit" in any of these categories.

Doctoral Students are encouraged to submit papers. They should indicate their status and the schools in which they are enrolled on the cover page.

Cover page on all submissions:  Include the full title, author's name, address, phone number, FAX, and email address on the cover page. Panel proposals should identify the chair and all proposed participants by name, address, phone number, and email address.

Paper Submissions: Repeat the full title on page one of the paper without the author's name or any other identifying information. Provide a 150-word abstract. Papers should not be longer than 30 pages (double-spaced).

Panel Submissions: You may identify panelists by name in the body of your proposal. Panel proposals should include a clear statement indicating the rationale for the panel and the format to be used. Panel proposals must also include a 150-word abstract for each participant/entry. Panels will normally be comprised of no more than three presenters plus a chair (who may also be one of the three presenters). Panels should not include discussants.

Workshop Submissions: Workshops are interactive sessions. Proposals should include a clear statement indicating the rationale for the workshop, why your research and/or expertise qualify you to give this workshop, and how you would run the workshop. 

Multiple submissions: Individuals submitting papers and panel proposals will be limited to one paper submission and inclusion on one panel submission. (This will not prevent any presenter from also serving as a session moderator appointed by the Program Committee.)
