Call for papers deadline – 29 October 2012
Venue – Woburn House, London, 7-8 March 2013
2013 is the 40th anniversary of the first enlargement of the European Union. To mark the occasion, UACES is organising a conference exploring the evolution of the integration project since the accession of the UK, Denmark and Ireland in 1973. The anniversary provides an opportunity to assess the impact of membership across these states and to advance the understanding of the contemporary conditions of European integration.
The conference will involve a mixture of plenary addresses from leading political figures and five panels dedicated to assessing the impact of EU membership from a range of disciplinary perspectives.
We invite proposals for papers which are focused on any of these areas:
Panel 1: ’The First Enlargement: Good for the EU, Good for the Acceding States?’
Panel 2: ‘The Impact on Domestic Politics, Society and Media’
Panel 3: ‘The Economic Impact of Accession’
Panel 4: ‘A Changed Legal Order?’
Panel 5: ‘A Reformed Public Administration?’
To submit a paper proposal send your 250-word abstract as a word document to admin@uaces.org. Please indicate ONE panel into which your paper fits.
The deadline for paper proposals is Monday 29 October 2012.

This conference is being organised with the support of the Lifelong Learning Programme of the European Union.
