Creating Value: Between Commerce and Commons

Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, Australia

Deadline extended - Closing date for Abstract and Full papers is now 21 April 2008


Call for Papers Guidelines

Detailed abstracts (up to 500 words) for papers are now called for. Deadline is April 21 2008. Abstracts will be refereed. We will be considering selected papers for publication (subject to separate negotiation).  Please seperate author identifying information from the abstract proper.
There is also an option to submit a full paper which will be subject to double-blind peer review. If accepted it will qualify as a 'refereed conference paper'.  Full papers should be (at most) 3,000 words, including an abstract and full reference list. Please ensure that all submissions clearly state which theme they fall under. Please separate author identifying information from the paper proper.
Please send abstracts and full papers by 21 April 2008 to:
