Call for Papers
The aim of the Third Annual International Conference on Business and Public Policy (ICBPP 2011) is to provide a forum for academic discussion on the global business and public policy issues from a multi-disciplinary perspective.

perspective, especially considering the growing impact of the Newly Industrialized Countries on the global economy. The conference will welcome submissions from scholars of every disciple including business, economic, finance, public policy economic development, politics, science, technology, global security and public policy, sociology, and other practitioners in any field that impacts business and/or public policy. There is no better place to discuss issues of global perspective than in the U.S. capital city – Washington, DC. Participants will be able to enjoy shows, attractions, activities, and tours available in the capital city.
The following topics can be covered in your submission and presentation:
1. Accounting & the Global Environment
