Call for Papers: BASEES 2024 Annual Conference, Robinson College, University of Cambridge, 5-7 April 2024
The British Association for Slavonic and East European Studies (BASEES) invites proposals for panels, roundtables, and papers for its 2024 annual conference. BASEES 2024 is being held in-person from the 5-7 April at Robinson College, Cambridge, United Kingdom. The conference will also welcome remote attendees. The 2023 conference in Glasgow welcomed 700 delegates from over 45 countries around the world.
The deadline for paper, panel and roundtable proposals is Friday, 29 September 2023. To propose a panel or a paper you will need to fill in the electronic proposal form on this website. https://www.baseesconference.org/
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. 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, East Central Europe and Asia. The conference especially welcomes participation by postgraduate research students and early career scholars.
The conference organisers also welcome proposals for thematic colloquiums that can be held as part of the conference. If you would like to propose a colloquium, please email the conference organiser at academic.organisers@basees.org
Remote attendance:
BASEES welcomes remote paper presentations. If you wish to attend remotely, please indicate this 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 discussion. We are operating a limited hybrid model. Delegates registering for remote attendance will be able to present their paper via Zoom and listen into all paper/panels. Full hybrid, i.e. using special 360° camera, mic and speaker equipment, will only be available in a very small number of rooms.
For queries, please contact academic.organisers@basees.org
