Welcome to The AUR Working Paper Series

The AUR Working Papers Series was established in 2006 to publish work by AUR staff as well as outside scholars by invitation. The aim of the series is to stimulate creativity, research and academic discussion at the American University of Rome, and also to share ideas with global academia. There is not a single thematic focus for the papers. The AUR working papers may for example address themes taken up in AUR courses, in AUR workshops, or may simply relate to research or research-related interests by individual faculty members.

There will be no formal editing process of the AUR working papers. AUR Working Papers may however have gone through revisions either as a result of presentations at seminars or following a short internal review process. The review process and discussion may also happen via reader comments after the paper is posted under the AUR Working Papers series. The Working Papers series invites finished works and work in progress.

The papers must be sent in MS Word format or in PDF format, but the AUR reserves the right to change format of the received documents. There are no length requirements. Contributions can be sent electronically to: j.weinheimer@aur.edu. All views expressed in the Working Papers are those of the author exclusively, and any errors or statements remain the sole responsibility of the author.

The author should state whether the paper is draft or finished version, and whether or not it may be quoted without permission from author. If the paper has been published elsewhere, place and time of original publication must be stated. If you have published something in a journal, you may have the right to place a copy of it in this archive. Please check with the librarian for further information.

Metadata, or cataloging information, will be added by the librarians.

Default copyright will be assigned according to Creative Commons License 3.0. If the author wishes to assign other licenses, please let the librarians know.
