15 days left: Call for Session Organizers at the ISA Forum of Sociology in Porto Alegre, Brazil July 2020. Deadline 15 March 2019.

The International Sociological Association’s 4th Forum of Sociology will be held in Porto Alegre, Brazil from July 14-18, 2020. RC02 is looking for session organizers to propose session topics. The most common format is an open call for abstracts that would yield an oral paper presentation session. However, we welcome proposals in alternative formats, including: Featured Speaker, Panel Session on a specific theme, Invited Sessions, Author meets their Critics, and Joint Sessions with other ISA RC/WG/TGs. The online session proposal submission system is open through 15 March 2019, 24:00 GMT. Please note that the deadline is set by ISA and is inflexible. To upload your proposals, use this link on the ISA website (https://isaconf.confex.com/isaconf/forum2020/rc/cfs.cgi?) and click on "RC02 Economy and Society.” You will be asked to log into your ISA account and you will then be redirected to the Session Control Panel where all the details of your proposal can be inserted.

We strongly encourage you to submit as soon as possible to avoid potential technical problems near the deadline. ISA is historically rather strict regarding the session deadlines. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact either of us. We look forward to reading your proposals!
