ComplianceNet 2025 "Evolving Compliance"

Welcome to ComplianceNet 2025!

ComplianceNet seeks to bring together scholars from a range of different disciplines to study the interaction between rules (broadly defined) and individual, group, or organizational behavior. The first five annual conferences have been highly successful bringing together academics from business, criminology, economics, law, political science, psychology, public policy, public health, and sociology, among other fields. See the ComplianceNet website for more details about the organization’s structure and goals as well as for an opportunity to join the mailing list if you desire to do so.

Join us for the ComplianceNet 2025 Conference, "Evolving Compliance". While the conference theme is "Evolving Compliance”, papers on all topics related to compliance will be welcome. We are currently accepting panel or paper submissions, with a deadline of December 20, 2024.

The cost to attend the conference is $198.00 USD this will include coffee, light breakfast, boxed lunch, and networking receptions. Payment for the event can be made through the following link:

Attendees may submit either individual papers or complete panel proposals. For individual papers, you will be asked to submit the paper title and abstract (up to about 200 words).

For panels (3 papers minimum with a maximum of 5 per panel), you will be asked to submit an integrative statement explaining the panel (approximately 200 words), the titles of each paper and their authors, and an abstract for each paper (approximately 200 words).

For roundtables, you will be asked to submit an integrative statement (approximately 200 words) and the name of each participant.

This year we will have a new panel to showcase graduate students and their work. We also offer prizes for the best papers from junior and senior scholars.

CALL FOR AWARDS NOMINATIONS

2025 ComplianceNet Annual Meeting

ComplianceNet is pleased to announce our awards designed to promote and highlight scholarly efforts in our discipline. We are seeking nominations for three awards—one for a student paper, one for a paper by a junior (fewer than 7 years of experience) scholar(s), and one for a paper by a more senior scholar (or group of scholars).

Please note that winners must attend the ComplianceNet annual meeting on May 28-30, 2025, at Fordham University School of Law in New York City, where the awards will be presented.

The ComplianceNet awards recognize outstanding scholarly work of students, post-docs, junior scholars, post-tenure faculty, and/or practitioners who are conducting research in the broadly defined area of compliance research. Such scholarship can be in the form of an article, book, or book chapter. ComplianceNet takes a broad approach to compliance, seeing it as the interactions between rules and behavior. We accept papers from a diverse set of perspectives, using various methodological and theoretical approaches, and covering a widevariety of topics relating to compliance. A listing of our prior award recipients and their papers is available atour website at https://www.compliancenet.org/awards.

Scholars working by themselves or as part of a team of co-authors are eligible for the competition. Papersubmissions may be conceptual, theoretical and/or empirical (quantitative or qualitative) and must be a completedproject—i.e., not a funding proposal or thesis proposal. Projects may be published or unpublished; however, only articles,books, or chapters published within three years of the award date are eligible for consideration. The committeemay elect not to give this award in any given year. We are offering awards in three different categories, described below:

1) Outstanding Student Paper Award

The award recognizes scholarly work of students enrolled in a university degree program. Co-authored papers with other scholars will be accepted, but a student should be the primary author and a submission letter should describe the relevant contributions of each co-author.

2) Outstanding Junior Scholar Paper Award

The award recognizes scholarly work of junior faculty, post-docs, and/or practitioners with fewer than 7 years of experience post-Ph.D., J.D., or other doctoral degree completion. Papers must be primarily the work of one or more junior scholars. Co-authored papers with post-tenure scholars will be accepted, but a junior scholar should be the primary author and a submission letter should describe the relevant contributions of each co-author. If there are quantitative and qualitative contributions of equal merit, it is possible (but unlikely) that two Outstanding Junior

Scholar Paper Awards will be given in one year.

3) Outstanding Senior Scholar Paper Award

The award recognizes scholarly work of post-tenure faculty and/or practitioners with more than 7 years of experience post-Ph.D., J.D., or other doctoral degree completion. Scholars working by themselves or as part of a team of co-authors are eligible for the competition. If there are quantitative and qualitative contributions of equal merit, it is possible (but unlikely) that two Outstanding Senior Scholar Paper Awards will be given in one year.

Deadline for receipt of materials is January 31, 2025
