Book Exhibition
The
ECPR Graduate Conference is a new event in the association's
calendar and provides a conventional academic forum for
graduate students to gain experience in proposing, presenting
and listening to papers. The first ECPR Graduate Conference
will take place in September 2006 at the University of Essex
.
The keynote lecture will be delivered by Professor
Charles Tilly of Columbia University , whose work
inspires the overall theme of the conference. Like the ECPR's
general conference, the conference format will consist of
open and themed panels, with the topics covered being as
broad as possible. There will also be a number of roundtables
of invited speakers on such issues as getting published
and doctoral training. A Book Exhibition is planned to run
throughout the conference. This is an excellent and unique
opportunity for you to display your publications to a new
younger audience.
