Centre for Retailing (CFR) is working on the anthology of chosen papers from the Nordic Wholesale and Retail Conference 2010. The reading of the papers and the process of choosing papers for the anthology started in the end of December. The criteria for being considered have been:
- That the paper was presented at NRWC 2010
- That it was a full paper, not just an abstract
- That the issue was current/interesting/relevant – some papers has also been chosen because the researchers have used an interesting method
- That the chapters of the anthology together should present the broad spectra of research that is being done in the Nordic countries
In February 2011 the authors of the chosen papers received the question on whether they wanted to participate in the anthology. Since respective author has revised their texts and once again handed them to the responsible editor at CFR.
The remaining work is further revisions, editorial work and finally going to press. The ambition is still to publicize the anthology in November.
Below there is a list of the papers (with a preliminary title) that will be a part of the anthology:
