Attendees will\u00a0be able to provide comments directly to the presenters, and would also be able to arrange for time to meet onsite at the meeting.\u00a0Associated Roles:<\/em> Author, Non-presenting Co-author<\/p>\n Emerging Scholars Symposium<\/a> NEW!<\/span> Full Paper Panel (90 min):<\/strong>\u00a0A full panel proposal is a fully formed panel session. You must submit all panel details, including panelist names, paper titles, and abstracts. No more than 4\u00a0papers are permitted. One or two discussant(s) and one chair needed. All panelists must be in agreement that they will participate if the panel is selected. Division Chairs may also compile these from the submitted papers.\u00a0Associated Roles:<\/em>\u00a0Author, Non-presenting Co-author, chair, discussant<\/p>\n Roundtable (90 min):<\/strong>\u00a0A roundtable proposal is for a discussion format session. Participants agree on a specific topic to discuss and debate. You must submit a session title and all participant details. You may submit up to 8 participants, and all participants must be in agreement that they will participate if the panel is selected.\u00a0Associated Roles:<\/em>\u00a0Presenter, Chair<\/p>\n Author(s) Meet Critics (90 min):<\/strong>\u00a0Similar as the regular roundtables, but proposal submitters and Division Chairs are encouraged to think creatively about incorporating works in progress to be published on the roundtable. These sessions could begin with a 10 minute presentation of a single paper that presents the next logical step in the research agenda set forth in the book, followed by a panel of critics talking about the book and about the work in progress. We also encourage Division Chairs to consider having author panels for articles that have appeared in refereed journals in addition to books.\u00a0Associated Roles:<\/em>\u00a0Presenter, Chair<\/p>\n Caf\u00e9 (90 min):<\/strong> This session format incorporates a handful of topic clusters, each staffed with a moderator to discuss various outreach efforts in the field. Members will share successful engagement methods and provide guidance to colleagues on ways to apply what they\u2019ve learned in other ways. This session could be about interdisciplinary outreach, public engagement, or any variety of outreach to unique audiences.\u00a0Associated Roles:<\/em>\u00a0Presenter, Chair<\/p>\n Featured Paper Panel: 30-minute Paper Presentations (3 papers at 30 minutes each; 90 min):<\/strong>\u00a0This format allows an author to present his or her work for a longer period of time and to have a dedicated discussant who isn\u2019t overburdened by having to read multiple papers. One session chair would guide the time, but each paper would have its own discussant. The sessions might follow the \u201cBrookings format,\u201d in which the discussant presents and then comments on the paper; the author would then have a chance to respond.\u00a0Associated Roles:<\/em>\u00a0Author, Non-presenting Co-author, Chair, Discussant<\/p>\n Mini-conference (full day \u2013 8:00 a.m. \u2013 5:30 p.m.):<\/strong>\u00a0A full day of content devoted to a theme. The mini-conference can be in pursuit of a larger cohesive goal than traditional panels provide, such as an edited volume or an omnibus dataset. Sessions within the mini-conference might be comprised of other formats in this list.\u00a0Associated Roles:<\/em>\u00a0Presenter, Chair,\u00a0Author, Non-presenting Co-author, Discussant<\/p>\n Theme Panel (90 min):<\/strong> Theme panels can be submitted by individuals during the Call for Proposals process or can be elevated up for review by division chairs.\u00a0 The program co-chairs review all panels submitted to this category and accept sessions that best explore this year\u2019s theme, \u201cDemocracy, Difference, and Destabilization.\u201d\u00a0Associated Roles:<\/em> Presenter, Chair,\u00a0Author,\u00a0 Non-presenting Co-author, Discussant<\/p>\n Workshop (4 hours):<\/strong>\u00a0These programs allow for a deep dive in a focused environment.

\n<\/u><\/b>Each scholar will have five minutes to present, followed by five minutes of feedback or Q&A. This format provides a structured framework giving presenters not only an opportunity to share their research at the world\u2019s largest political science meeting, but also an opportunity to develop and enhance research communication skills through a concise presentation. The Symposium coincides with other emerging scholar events on Saturday, such as the Graduate School Information Fair and the Graduate Student Happy Hour. The three categories for individual submission under the Symposium are:<\/p>\n\n
