    SECOND ANNUAL JIBS/AIB PAPER DEVELOPMENT WORKSHOP


    Submission Deadline: March 15, 2005


    The workshop is a whole-day event to be held on Saturday, July 9, 2005 in conjunction with the AIB annual meeting in Quebec City, Canada. It will be structured in nine parallel tracks representing the nine editorial areas of JIBS. One or more JIBS Departmental Editors and/or Consulting Editors will guide each track. The discussions will focus on constructive comments and recommendations for improving the papers. Each participant in a track must commit to read all the other papers in the track and to
    prepare in-depth feedback on 2-3 of the papers.


    The number of papers to be invited to the workshop is limited to 120.
    Selection for the JIBS/AIB Paper Development Workshop is competitive. All
    papers submitted to the workshop will be screened by JIBS Editors and a
    subset will be invited to participate. The following specific rules will
    guide the selection process:

    - Preference will be given to manuscripts that are suitable for
    potential publication in JIBS including both empirical and conceptual
    work. Workshop papers can be at any stage of development as long as
    the core argument is well articulated.
    - Special consideration will be given to manuscripts submitted to the
    paper development workshop, which have been nominated for the AIB
    Best Paper award or the Haynes Prize award.
    - In an effort to internationalize the journal further, special
    considerations will also be given to authors from countries where
    English is not the primary language.
    - Papers currently under review or revision at any journal are not
    eligible for participation. However, conference papers can be
    submitted.


    Submission is as follows. The deadline for application is March 15, 2005.
    The papers should be submitted electronically in PDF Format to
    editor-in-chief-jibs@duke.edu. Send Email. Authors must indicate the
    editorial area (track) that best fits their paper. Papers should not exceed
    30 pages in length (25 pages in A4 format), double spaced, in 12-point
