Publication of Papers

To enable the publication of conference papers as articles in scholarly journals after the conference,
conference papers are password protected and accessible to conference participants only.
The International Conference on Cultural Policy Research is arranged in association with The
International Journal of Cultural Policy, but an accepted paper at the conference does not guarantee
publication of a subsequent article in The International Journal of Cultural Policy. After theconference, the members of the Scientific Committee are invited to recommend a selection ofconference papers that might be developed for publication in the journal. If the authors of these papers
accept this invitation, they will undergo the same review as any other submitted article. Conference
participants are, of course, also free to submit their papers to this or any other journal, as they see fit.
