From the
General Secretary of the IAHR
Dear Keynote Speakers and
Panel and Symposia Organizers,
On behalf of the IAHR, I would like to thank the
keynote speakers for your willingness to share your insights and
research results at the 19th World Congress in Tokyo. We ask you
to please plan your papers for publication in the congress proceedings
and would appreciate being consulted on any alternative plans that
you might have.
Gratitude is also extended to colleagues for your
efforts in coordinating panels and symposia of high quality during
the World Congress. It is your dedication and industry which helps
ensure the success of the congress.
Please note that the Executive Committee may invite
individual organizers of panels and symposia to propose a publication
of Adjunct Proceedings. Subject to approval by the Executive Committee,
editors of Adjunct Proceedings are permitted to use the name of
the IAHR event in the title or other prominent section of the publication.
It is assumed that all spin-off volumes, whether approved or not,
acknowledge that the papers were presented at the IAHR congress.
Furthermore, it is requested that a minimum of 12 free copies be
made available to the Executive Committee of all spin-off publications.
Alternative agreements can be reached for hosts residing in economically
weak countries.
In the event that you feel your particular panel
or symposium is of good quality, we invite you to send a proposal
for Adjunct Proceedings as soon as possible. The proposal should
include the name or names of the editor/s, the preliminary table
of contents, a brief statement of the content and the name of the
publishing company.
We also request all journal editors and publishers
who receive articles and manuscripts based on papers given at the
IAHR World Congress ensure that there is an acknowledgment along
the following lines: "This article is a revised version of
a paper given at the 19th World Congress of the International Association
for the History of Religions in Tokyo, March 24-30, 2005".
Please feel free to contact me in Tokyo
for further information. We look forward to meeting you all in there!
Yours truly,
Armin W. Geertz
