title: Mindful publishing in the AI era: An editor’s perspective on trends, challenges, and insights in mindfulness research

authors: Medvedev, Oleg N.

abstract: In an age where AI influences many facets of academic pursuit, the dissemination of mindfulness research is undergoing significant transformation. This workshop delivers an editor's perspective on the latest trends in mindfulness research, navigating through the possibilities and perils that AI presents to scholarly publishing.
Our focus shifts to the core trends revolutionizing how mindfulness research reaches academic and public domains. We delve into how AI impacts the success rates of paper acceptance and publication, and the broader implications for researchers striving to contribute novel insights in a highly competitive space. This discussion will outline the increased efficiency and new opportunities for disseminating research findings, while also considering the challenges of maintaining rigorous peer-review standards in the fast-paced digital era.
From an editorial vantage point, we share insights on harnessing AI to enhance the visibility and impact of mindfulness studies, and how this influences the themes and narratives that gain prominence in the literature. The talk will reflect on the emerging challenges such as ensuring the ethical use of AI, addressing the digital divide in research accessibility, and preserving the integrity of mindfulness as a discipline amidst rapid technological change.
This workshop presentation aims to equip researchers with an understanding of current publishing trends, stimulate discussion on overcoming associated challenges, and inspire innovative approaches to sharing their work effectively. Attendees will leave with a clearer vision for navigating the evolving landscape of mindfulness research publication in the era of AI integration.

title: Liberalism in 19th Century Europe: To what extent did liberalism influence the Concert of Europe?

authors: Heron, Quinn

subjects: International Relations

abstract: The Concert of Europe (the Concert), that lasted from 1814 to 1914, was a system of international relations that was, in many respects, illiberal. Much of the scholarship of the Concert has accepted that realist concerns, such as the balance of power, played a dominant role in shaping the Concert. It might seem strange then to ask what role liberal ideas and principles played in a system so widely regarded as realist. Yet, that is the goal of this thesis; to ask the question ‘to what extent did liberalism influence the Concert of Europe?’ Traversing the fields of History and International Relations, this thesis utilizes both disciplines, combined with qualitative analysis, to identify liberalism within Concert rhetoric and the Concert’s actors while challenging the prominence of realist explanations. The Concert displayed prominent liberal characteristics in both the rhetoric used during several crises and the actions and beliefs of the actors within it. This thesis concludes that liberal ideas and principles influenced the Concert to a significant, and often overlooked extent, and draws lessons from its operation for understanding the emerging 21st century multipolar system.
