>>> NOVEMBER 6-9, 1997
>>> "PLANNING IN THE AMERICAS"
>>>
>>> FORT LAUDERDALE, FLORIDA

>>>Local Hosts:
>>> Florida Atlantic University,

>>> University of Florida
>>>
>>> All Abstracts Due: Friday, January 3, 1997
>>>
>>>
>>>The 1997 Conference will take place just north of the 25th parallel,
>>>a line which runs south of the remaining continental US and through
>>>the heart of Mexico. Florida, itself, juts well into the Caribbean
>>>basin. Because of this unique set of circumstances, the 1997
>>>Conference will be organized under the broad theme Planning in the
>>>Americas; papers are invited which cover a variety of planning issues
>>>faced by, or in association with, the Western Hemisphere. As a
>>>cross-roads for North, South America and the Caribbean, the south
>>>Florida venue promises to enrich the perspectives of planning
>>>academics from both sides of the 25th parallel.
>>>
>>>We are now accepting abstracts for:
>>>
>>> individual papers
>>> complete paper sessions
>>> roundtables or discussion sessions
>>> innovative or unique kinds of presentations
>>>
>>>We discourage multiple submissions and intend to limit the number of
>>>presentations made by an individual participant.
>>>
>>>Originally we required that all abstracts must be submitted in
>>>English, which is the official Conference language. However, to
>>>provide incentives for our Mexican, Caribbean, and Latin American
>>>colleagues to attend, we will accept abstracts in Spanish as well
>>>(unfortunately we cannot accept abstracts in languages other than
>>>English or Spanish). We still prefer that your abstract be in
>>>English even if you cannot give your paper in English. Please
>>>indicate your ability to present in English if this is an issue. If
>>>people can present in English, they will be mainstreamed into regular
>>>sessions if their abstracts are accepted; if they cannot present in
>>>English we will try to group Spanish-language presentations, or find
>>>funds for simultaneous translation.
>>>
>>>We urge you to consider the Conference theme--Planning in the
>>>Americas--in your submission, if at all possible. ACSP has also
>>>adopted a policy encouraging presenters to consider issues of gender
>>>and ethnicity in their submissions.
>>>
>>>Each abstract will be peer-reviewed in one of fourteen substantive
>>>Tracks or in the National or Local Program Tracks; national reviews
>>>will be coordinated within substantive Tracks by the Track Chair.
>>>Some Track Chairs have asked for additional kinds of presentations or
>>>for a focus on certain issues; they will still consider all abstracts
>>>which fall into their Track.
>>>
>>>Feel free to contact the Chair of a Track in which you have an
>>>interest to learn of his or her focus or emphasis for the 1997
>>>Conference but DO NOT SEND YOUR FORMAL ABSTRACT DIRECTLY TO A CHAIR.
>>> Chairs are not responsible for the formal receipt of abstracts; they
>>>will discard any abstracts which are not formally submitted to the
>>>ACSP National Conference Committee as described below.

>>>
>>>If you submit more than one abstract please rank them by priority

>>>must provide all necessary information; you must chose a Track or
