"TAKING STOCK" Montreal July 8-11 2000
http://asac-ifsam2000.uqam.ca
MONTREAL is the place to be in July 2000

IFSAM is the International Federation of Scholarly Associations of
Management. Its member associations include the Administrative Sciences
Association of Canada (ASAC), the US Academy of Management and Academies of
Management in all continents, representing over 20 countries. ASAC will be
the host of IFSAM's 5th World Congress in Montreal, following those held in
Tokyo (1992), Dallas (1994), Paris (1996) and Alcala de Henares (Spain, 1998).
The theme of the conference is "Taking Stock." The idea is to take the
opportunity of the new millenium to step back and look at what management
scholars and teachers have contributed to management knowledge, education
and practice, and to consider what we might do better in the future.
We welcome submissions in all areas of management scholarship. There will be
a special Management Education Program as well as a Case Track.
MONTREAL and all that jAzZ
The conference site will be the Universite du Quebec a Montreal in the heart
of Montreal, one of North America's most fascinating cities. Amongst other
attractions, the city's renowned International Jazz Festival (400 concerts,
including 300 free outdoor shows, 1 million participants) is planned for
June 28-July 9, 2000, overlapping the beginning of the conference. Blocks of
rooms have been booked in nearby hotels from July 6 and before so
participants can come early, take it in and see the sights.
HOW TO PARTICIPATE
Contributors may submit regular format articles (10 single-spaced pages
maximum), poster papers or symposium/ panel proposals. We are particularly
encouraging the submission of international symposia bringing together
people from different countries to address a topic of common interest,
preferably related to the conference theme. All contributions will be
peer-reviewed and selected papers will be included in the Proceedings.
