Proposals can only be submitted to Nexus Series of Humanities and Social Sciences online. We are currently in the process of setting up our new online proposal system for this series and will share more information on this shortly. In the meantime, if you want to submit a proceedings proposal for this series or receive more information about our proceedings service, please contact our publishing team at ping.du@ais.cn to request a proposal form.
To ensure the quality and integrity of the proceedings we publish, your submitted proposal will be further evaluated and assessed by a Series Editor(s) and/or a scientific evaluation committee consisting of selected senior researchers in the relevant field. Note that proceedings proposals outside the scope of our current series might also be considered.
