    Call for Papers:

    Manipulation, Abuse, and Maltreatment in Groups

    Trieste, Italy
    July 4 – 6, 2013

    The International Cultic Studies Association (ICSA) is conducting its
    2013 Annual International Conference jointly with SOS-Abusi
    Psicologici, Exit S.C.S. Onlus and Info-Secte/Info-Cult.

    The conference will be held in Trieste, Italy from Thursday, July 4,
    2013 through Saturday, July 6, 2013. Trieste is considered to be one
    of the less-known jewels of Italy. The city overlooks the Adriatic
    Sea and is less than one hour from Venice or the stunning
    Adriatic coastline.

    Attendees and speakers at past conferences have been diverse,
    including academicians, researchers, helping professionals, former
    and
    current group members, families, clergy, educators, and others.

    Individual presenters at ICSA’s annual conference will have 30 or 45-
    minutes for paper delivery and discussion, depending upon whether we
    schedule two or three talks in a 90-minute time block.

    Panel organizers have 90 minutes for the panel. It is recommended that
    no
    more than four people speak on a panel.

    The Conference Committee will consider proposals in English or
    Italian
    on all aspects of the subject, including victims’ perspectives,
    psychological and social manipulation, religious fanaticism,
    terrorism, law enforcement, treatment, prevention, and legal, social,
    and public policy aspects of the subject areas.

    ICSA is not able to offer financial assistance to speakers, although
    we do give speakers a discount in the registration fee.
