Southern Conference on Slavic Studies

2025 Call for Papers

The 61st annual meeting of the Southern Conference on Slavic Studies (SCSS)

will take place in Lexington, KY on February 27-March 1, 2025. The conference, hosted by the University of Kentucky, will be held at Hilton Lexington Downtown hotel, with a group rate at $139 per night.

We strongly encourage complete panel or roundtable proposals, but proposals for individual papers will also be accepted. In order to maximize the number of whole panel submissions and to make it easier on participants to form panels when they only have a single paper topic, this year your submissions will automatically populate a spreadsheet that will show other panels, roundtables and individual papers. There you can take a look at the work of other participants to try to find scholars with whom you can form a panel. This will help avert the danger that your paper would have to be placed on a non-cohesive panel by the organizers. A panel typically consists of a chair, three members and a discussant while a roundtable has a chair and three to five participants.

The portal for submissions is here: https://forms.gle/21oWFU6TV3opfcSW9
