Dear Friends and Colleagues,

we are happy to share with you the call for papers for the next AKSE
conference in 2023!
31ST AKSE CONFERENCE
22-25 June 2023, Copenhagen (Denmark) - Call for Papers - The University of
Copenhagen will host the 31st biennial AKSE Conference as an in-person
event from 22 (Thursday) to 25 (Sunday) June 2023 in Copenhagen, Denmark.
The conference is co-organized by the University of Copenhagen with the
AKSE Council. The Association for Korean Studies in Europe, founded in
1977, is the main scholarly society for Korean Studies in Europe. Its
objectives are to stimulate and coordinate academic Korean Studies in all
countries of Europe, and to contribute to the spread of knowledge of Korea
among a wider public.
The biennial AKSE conferences provide an opportunity for European scholars
of Korean Studies to gather and exchange research. The conferences host the
AKSE membership meeting, making this the most important event of the
association as such. AKSE conferences are also a way for European scholars
to communicate with the global academic community. We thus warmly welcome
non‐Europeans and non‐members.

Organizers: Korean Studies Team at the University of Copenhagen  Barbara
Wall (Associate Professor) & Amos Farooqi (PhD Candidate)

Conference venues and hotel The conference venue, including the opening

submission will entail preliminary registration (not binding). Formal
online registration for all active (presenting and chairing) and passive
participants will open on 1 January 2023 and last until 1 May 2023. For
submitters 1) Subjects and general guidelines ∙ Both individual abstracts
and panel proposals can be submitted. Panel proposals will be treated
preferentially. All paper proposals will receive a double-blind assessment.
We strongly encourage panel diversity (institutional, national,
disciplinary), and this will be an important criterion in the final
selection process. ∙ Subjects in all areas of Korean Studies are welcome.
During the abstract submission, submitters will have to choose a field for
their presentation. ∙ All abstracts should be written in English, but the
official languages of the conference are: English, French, German and
Korean. You must specify the presentation language if it is different from
English. 2) Presentation guidelines ∙ Each panel will last 105 minutes and
typically consist of four presentations. ∙ To allow plenty of time for
discussion, each presentation should not exceed 15 minutes (60 minutes for
presentations, 45 minutes for discussion). ∙ In the case of an organized
panel, a fifth person can be invited as panel chair by the panel organizer.
Alternatively, one of the four panelists can act as chair. ∙ Normally
panels do not include discussants. The panel chair can act as discussant if
invited to do so. 3) Note on panel proposals ∙ Panel proposals should
include a concise title (e.g. “Korean Diaspora in US”), keywords (up to
three), the number of panelists (five in the case of a non-presenting chair
or four in the case of a presenting chair), and a panel abstract of up to
300 words. ∙ In addition, each panelist should prepare an abstract of up to
300 words, excluding the paper title and keywords. 4) Note on individual
papers ∙ Individual presenters should prepare an abstract of up to 300
words, excluding the paper title and keywords (up to three). Conference fees 1)
Included with conference fees: ∙ accommodation and breakfast (3 nights in
double rooms) ∙ conference attendance ∙ opening and closing ceremonies with
dinner ∙ coffee breaks and lunch on each conference day ∙ conference
materials 2) Not included: ∙ travel to and from Copenhagen ∙ AKSE
