American Society of Criminology

Where:  Washington DC, United States

When: 18-21 November 2020

Registration:

Visit the ASC website for further information.

Rural crime panels:

In 2019 for the ASC conference which took place in San Francisco, our ISSRC President Joe Donnermeyer took a co-ordinating role for people wanting to present a paper and to join a panel. There is much merit in locating our individual papers within a themed panel rather than have them spread across a very large program and thus difficult to find. And, so, Joe is keen to hear from you if you are planning on visiting Washington this year.

Because of the sheer size of ASC, abstracts must be submitted early in the year.  The deadline to submit abstracts for a Thematic Panel, Individual Paper, or Author Meets Critic Session is Friday March 20, 2020. Abstracts for Lightning Talks, Poster and Roundtable Submissions are due by Friday May 15, 2020. No late submissions will be accepted.

Please contact Joe by email to advise of your intention to attend and present, and he will help put you in touch with others.
