OPEN STREAM
In addition to
papers addressing one of the main conference themes, novel research
outside these thematic foci is also welcome.
The open stream
of the conference is designed to encourage / enable conference
participation for Members and others for whom the current year's
theme is not within their particular area of interest, but have
a contribution to make to leisure studies theory, methodology,
policy and pedagogy.
The open stream
will thus offer a forum for novel research papers that engage
with key debates in the development of the subject field of leisure
studies in addition to critical issues emanating from specific
leisure research projects.
NOTE >>>> A limited number of
slots will be allotted for the open stream presentations. Prospective
presenters with questions about 'open stream' papers are encouraged
to contact LSA2008@ljmu.ac.uk .
The same guidelines
as for Main theme proposals should be followed.
