Submission Deadline: November 30, 2011
The goal of ICMD-12 is to bring together traditional and emerging thoughts on the new era of markets and its connection to human development in all its forms. Therefore, we encourage papers and sessions on a redefinition of development grounded in contemporary understanding of markets and marketing. As with earlier ISMD conferences, we anticipate thinking and investigations that rely on existing models to suggest new avenues for enhancing development around the world. Oh, we might even challenge the essence of the term “development”! ISMD will be accepting three types of submissions – long abstracts, complete papers, and panel proposals (special sessions). Submissions must be sent to the appropriate track chair(s) as an email attachment in MS WORD FORMAT by
November 30, 2011
