Second CRCEES Research Forum, 17-18 June 2008
University of Nottingham
**Call for Papers**
The Centre for Russian, Central and East European Studies (CRCEES) will be
holding its second annual Research Forum at Nottingham University on 17-18
June 2008.
The plan is to have a combination of research panels, plenary sessions and
informal workshops in order to explore the five research themes within
CRCEES. These are:
1. Aspects of identity and culture and their social, political and
economic implications;
2. Economic and social transformation;
3. Political transformation and international relations;
4. Literary, cinematic and cultural developments in the area;
5. The politics of language.
Within these broad schemes, there is much scope for more tightly focused
sub-themes, focusing on particular areas of expertise and interest. The
purpose of the Research Forum is to celebrate the variety of work being
undertaken within the CRCEES network.
The Research Forum will be organised by the CRCEES Research Committee,
which is calling for proposals for individual papers or panels, plenary
sessions, and workshops.
It is particularly keen to involve contributions from POSTGRADUATE
STUDENTS; these may either take the form of papers integrated within
panels or discreet post-graduate events.
Proposals from those outside the CRCEES network will be considered, and
included where they strengthen the programme.
The members of the Research Committee are happy to give advice, and all
proposals (250 words) should be with its chair, Geoff Swain
([log in to unmask]), by the deadline of 29 February 2008.
