The First FIMAM Congress is set within the background of the original philosophy of the Forum. From the beginning, the ideas of "encounter" and "meeting" have been the axis of FIMAM. This means that contact and exchange among researchers, constructive and reflexive discussion on works, in an open and critical approach are still priorities. That's why the Congress is open to anyone wishing to present their work following this philosophy, that is, with no discrimination beyond the interest in the work's content, whether it is by an inexperienced or a known author. From this point of view, the selection of papers will be done according to scientific criteria. Therefore, positive and negative evaluations will be announced to the authors, so that, in case of a negative evaluation, they can rework on their text, and in case of disagreement from the author, they can reply to the Scientific Committee. To sum up, a negative evaluation does not mean an exclusion of the Congress.
Anyone interested can
present proposals of papers and contributions related to the panels.
Since the panels are broadly-based in its topics, the authors may have
to propose one of them for the presentation of their work. Nevertheless,
for a better organization of the congress, the scientific committee
will decide the distribution of papers and contributions.
The proposals of papers and contributions must include an extended presentation of its content and a bibliography as complete as possible. Those proposals of papers and contributions received as a working paper will have preference.
All speakers who previously request it may publish their work in the Forum of the FIMAM Congress, in order to facilitate the pre-congressual debate. Those authors who have published their work in the Forum will have preference in the presentations of their papers and contributions during the face-to-face sessions of the congress.
Pre-congressual debate
will take place through the distribution list of FIMAM:
