[URBANTH-L]CFP: Empire, Borderlands and Border Cultures

[Angela Jancius]

CFP: Empire, Borderlands and Border Cultures

 California State University Stanislaus will host a conference on "Empire,
Borderlands and Border Cultures on March16-18, 2006.

In an effort to facilitate a wide-raning and interdisciplinary conversation
about empire, scholars working in a variety of disciplines are invited to
submit papers. We hope participants will address the issues of empire from
antiquity to postmodernity, on every continent and from many cultures,
including topics such as diaspora, immigration, reverse colonization,
imperialism and visual culture, gender and empire, the empire in popular
culture, and the construction of national, religious and ethnic identities.
One page vitas and proposals for a 20 minute paper should be mailed to:

Betsy Eudey (BEudey at csustan.edu)
or
Arnold Schmidt (AShmidt at csustan.edu)

Panel proposals are welcome. No attachments please.
