The 23rd Annual Conference of the International Association for Conflict Management will take place on June 24-27, 2010 in Boston, Massachusetts. The organizers are accepting papers, as well as proposals for symposia, debates, roundtables, workshops, and novel session formats. Papers and extended abstracts may be empirical, practical, and theoretical and may address a wide range of legal, political, economic, and social topics related to conflict management.

Preference will be given to innovative submissions focused on decision-making, negotiation, conflicts in the public sector, social justice, third party intervention, environmental and public resource conflict, international institutional conflicts, and terrorism. Law and Ph.D. students are encouraged to submit high quality papers; a few scholarships are available to cover travel and registration.
