http://www.cfp99.org/call_for_proposals.html
"THE GLOBAL INTERNET"
Omni Shoreham Hoyel, Washington, DC, April 6-8, 1999
The Program Committee of the conference on Computers, Freedom, and Privacy
(CFP99) is seeking proposals for the ninth annual CFP, which will be held
in Washington DC between April 6th and April 8th 1999 at the Omni Sheraton
Hotel. CFP is sponsored by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM).
CFP is the leading Internet policy conference. For almost a decade, CFP
has shaped the public debate on the future of privacy and freedom in the
online world. The CFP audience is diverse with representatives from
government, business, education, non-profits and the media. The themes are
broad and forward-looking. CFP explores what will be, not what has been.
It is the place where the future is mapped.
The theme of the 1999 CFP conference is "The Global Internet." Proposals
are welcomed on all aspects of privacy and freedom. The 1999 Program
Committee is particularly interested in receiving proposals that deal
with:
ACCESS TO THE INTERNET, particularly those relating to globalization and
governance. Of particular interest are issues of privacy, censorship, free
speech and access.
INTERNATIONAL ISSUES, especially the emerging issues of global privacy
protection, encryption policy, international principles of human rights,
regulation, legislation, and copyright.
ELECTRONIC COMMERCE, including the impact of payment systems, regulations,
and technical standards on personal freedom and privacy.
CULTURE AND LANGUAGE ON THE INTERNET, such as the significance of
diversity, multilingualism, and cultural representation
We strongly encourage proposals that involve leading experts, innovators,
policymakers, and thinkers.
The CFP99 Program Committee will finalize the selection of proposals by
February 1, 1999, and all proposals must be received by January 15, 1999
Please follow the submission guidelines below.
