| CALL FOR PAPERS
Academy of International Business Annual Conference
July 10-13, 2004 — Istanbul, Turkey
Bridging with
the Other: The Importance of Dialogue in International Business
Istanbul is an ideal venue to hold
the 2004 Annual Meeting of the Academy of International Business. The
conference theme, Bridging with the Other, encourages sessions that integrate
across levels of analysis and fields of inquiry in novel ways. It draws our
attention to underexamined locales, rarely heard voices, and underrepresented
scholarly perspectives in international business (IB). This year's conference
seeks to encourage symposia and paper offerings that build bridges by:
- Social science-based submissions are
encouraged. Papers and symposia that include scholars from history,
anthropology, sociology, political science, psychology, law, and comparative
religion are particularly welcome.
- Interdisciplinary papers and panels
focusing on multiple levels of analysis are sought.
- Papers and symposia that include
scholars from diverse locations and backgrounds are particularly
encouraged.
- Panels with executive contributors
or discussants, to build bridges between IB scholars and IB
practitioners.
Preconference Professional
Development Program
This year we also seek to begin a preconference, Professional Development
Program, to be held on Saturday, July10. The PDP portion of the conference will
be devoted to hands-on workshops that require more than the typical time
allotted during the regular conference. These sessions may be teaching or
research oriented-but we anticipate that their focus will be on skill building
for our members (e.g., research methods workshops, teaching methods, and
pedagogical innovations workshops).
