Conference Rules & Guidelines
Before submitting a conference proposal or participating in a conference, participants should read the policies and guidelines outlined below.
If you have any questions, please contact the CESS Society Administrator (info@centraleurasia.org).
If you have any questions, please contact the CESS Society Administrator (info@centraleurasia.org).
By submitting a proposal to participate in a CESS conference (or being included on someone else’s panel proposal), you commit yourself to following through with the steps necessary to participate. This includes: obtaining funding for the costs of participation as needed, applying for a visa on a timely basis if needed, keeping your schedule free of conflicting commitments, and fully preparing for the conference.
All presenters must register for the conference by the presenter registration deadline.
All presenters must register for the conference by the presenter registration deadline.
All presenters are required to have or obtain current membership of CESS. Membership offers a range of benefits, including a discount on the conference registration fee.
If you are accepted to participate, you must register by the registration deadline in order to be included in the conference program. Presenters who have not registered for the conference by the registration deadline will be withdrawn from the program. All participants (and audience members) must also pay the registration fee. The fee may be paid in advance or upon arrival at the conference.
CESS membership and conference registration are two separate processes with two separate fees. Both are mandatory for presenters.

CESS membership and conference registration are two separate processes with two separate fees. Both are mandatory for presenters.
If you are accepted to participate in the conference program but then have to withdraw, you must email CESS as soon as possible. You should also notify the Chair, Discussant, and other members of your panel. Failure to register or notify CESS of your withdrawal from the conference may lead to a ban on participation in future conferences.
Each conference participant may appear on the program in up to three panels, including a strict limit on presenting only one paper at the conference. For the other two panels you may have a role such as Chair, Discussant, or Roundtable Panelist. You may submit two paper proposals, but only one will be accepted. If you are a co-author on another paper, that paper may be presented by the other author.
If we receive at the time of proposal submission, a request to avoid a certain day in scheduling a paper or panel, we will do our best to accommodate the request. However, no guarantees are made. Once the preliminary program has been set, it is not possible to make scheduling changes. We ask that you respect the difficult work of the conference organization and make such requests only in exceptional circumstances.
You may not present the same paper at the Summer Conference and the Annual Conference in the same year. You may submit the same proposal to both conferences– you must note that you are doing so in your abstract– but it will only be accepted for one conference in a given year.
Presenters whose papers have been accepted but who find they are unable to attend occasionally ask if a colleague can read their paper on their behalf. This is not permitted. Discussion of current work is an essential element of the conference, and it is impossible to discuss a paper as usefully if the author is not a participant in that discussion.

The Central Eurasian Studies Society (CESS) conference is convened for the purposes of professional development and scholarly and educational exchange. CESS is dedicated to providing a harassment-free convention experience for everyone regardless of gender, sexual orientation, disability, physical appearance, nationality, race, or religion. All participants are expected to abide by this Code of Conduct. Any violation of it will be considered a serious form of professional misconduct.
The default language for all CESS Annual and Summer Conferences is English. We aim to foster cross-regional comparisons, not to limit discussions to scholars within regional enclaves.
The primary language of the CESS Conference is English; however, proposals for panels to be conducted primarily in a non-English language are welcome and encouraged. Panel proposals should indicate the planned working language in brackets after the title (e.g. [Uzbek], [Russian], etc.) and submit an abstract in English followed by the abstract in the non-English language. Individual paper proposals can only be accepted if they are delivered in English.
If your proposal is accepted for presentation in English, you must present in English and no other language. It is not acceptable to ask someone to provide translation at the panel, nor to have someone else read your paper for you. During the general discussion, if someone wants to intervene in a different language and if they are able to get someone to volunteer to help with translation, that is acceptable as we do want to maximize the possibilities for discussion.

Open Panels
This year, CESS is running a two-stage call, where alongside the call for pre-organized (or closed) panels and other formats, colleagues may propose open panels. An open panel is a title and abstract for a possible panel – a suggestion as to a perspective/topic that possible papers could centre around. Those proposing an open panel need not have pre-populated their panel with set contributors (as with closed panels). Rather, open panels accepted by the Conference Committee will be listed on the site and at the Call for Papers stage, those wishing to propose individual papers will be encouraged to first look at the open panels to see whether their work could be angled towards an open panel. Such papers will be proposed directly via the website to the open panels, whose convenors will decide which to accept.
As not all colleagues’ work will necessarily fit such open panels, there will remain an opportunity to propose a stand-alone individual paper which the Conference Committee may organize into sessions. However, the Committee strongly urges authors to see if they can fit their work into an existing open panel.

However, the Committee strongly urges authors to see if they can fit their work into an existing open panel.
Individual Papers
Individual paper presenters are papers that are written by one author or a group of authors working together. If your paper is co-authored, please also read the rules about participation limits. If accepted, they are included in a panel with a total of 3-4 papers. The CESS Conference Committee assembles accepted papers into panels under a common theme, and arranges to have a Chair and Discussant for the panel.
When submitting, you will first need to choose the theme that is most appropriate for your paper. A list of these will be displayed in the submission system. You will then need to enter your contact data, a paper title, and type or paste in an abstract (250-400 words). Incomplete submissions will not be considered. Individual paper submissions are only accepted in English.
You may find our guidelines for writing abstracts helpful.

Pre-Organized Panels
A pre-organized panel is comprised of 3-4 presenters, a Chair, and a Discussant. The panel is unified by a commonality or interrelatedness between the papers of the presenters. The Chair and Discussant should not also be presenters. We strongly encourage panels that are comparative across regions, that demonstrate different disciplinary approaches to a common theme, and which are comprised of presenters from a range of institutions.
This is a multi-step submission process. Do not leave your submission until the last minute!
Pre-organized panel proposals are initially submitted by one person who is designated the Panel convener. The convener must submit: their contact information; a proposed panel title; the names (with institutions) of the proposed Chair and Discussant; an abstract (250-400 words) explaining the rationale for the panel and how the papers are interrelated; and a discipline/theme (selected from a list) most appropriate for the panel.
Once the proposal is submitted, the convener will be automatically emailed a confirmation within which is a weblink for paper proposals. The convenor must share this with the panel’s presenters so that each can enter their contact information, paper title and abstract (250-400 words). The panel convenor will receive notifications of each paper submission to their panel. It is the responsibility of the convenor to ensure that the presenters upload their information by the deadline.
Panel submissions lacking individual abstracts or other key information will not be considered. Panels that lack a proposed Chair or Discussant may be considered, but the strongest consideration will be given to complete panel submissions.
For regional conferences: If one or more pre-organized panel presenters wish to present in a language other than English, the convener should indicate the proposed language of presentation in the panel abstract. Abstracts submitted in another language should be accompanied by an English language translation or summary (see also: CESS Conference Language Policy).
If a panelist withdraws from a pre-organized panel, the CESS Conference Committee may place another presenter on the panel. We will try to communicate with the organizer to ensure the acceptability of the fit, but this may not be possible when withdrawals occur late in the planning process.

Roundtables
Roundtables serve as key discussion formats in Central Eurasian Studies. A roundtable consists of a moderator and 4-6 commentators who discuss a well-defined theme, such as recent developments in the field or theoretical advancements. Commentators share perspectives rather than research findings, with initial remarks lasting 5-7 minutes before the discussion opens to audience participation.
A roundtable may be an author-critic forum, which brings together three or four critics to discuss a recently published book expected to have a significant impact on Central Eurasian Studies. Each critic presents for 10-12 minutes, followed by a response from the book’s author. A chair moderates the discussion, ensuring a balanced exchange between the critics, author, and audience. Before submitting a forum proposal, the author must commit to participation, and they may arrange for critics to receive copies of the book in advance.
Roundtable proposals require a multi-step submission process. A designated convener must submit their contact details, the session title, an abstract (250-400 words), and a relevant theme from a provided list. Upon submission, the convener receives an email with a confirmation link, which they must share with the proposed participants to complete their submissions.

Workshops
Workshops offer training-type interactive sessions for conference delegates. They take place during the course of the Annual Conference programming. Workshops in the past have addressed such matters as publishing, field research, ethics, or working with the media. We are open to suggestions of new directions and new formats, and we will be keen to support well-justified proposals that attempt objectives that have not been tried before.
Note: This is a multi-step process—early submissions are strongly encouraged.
Workshop proposals should be submitted by one person representing the group, the convener. The convener enters their contact data, the Workshop title, types or copy-pastes in a description of the aims and intended outcomes of the workshop and its relevance to CESS conference participants (250-400 words), and then selects the theme that is most appropriate for the Workshop. Once the proposal is submitted, the convener will be automatically emailed a confirmation containing a weblink. The convenor must share this link with the proposed participants so that each can add their own contact information. The convenor will receive a notification for each submission. It is the responsibility of the convenor to ensure that the participants upload their information by the deadline.
