Call for Papers Political Demography Ethnic, National and Religious Dimensions 29-30 September 2006 London School of Economics Proposal Deadline - 15 July 2006 Demography - chiefly in the form of international migration and differential fertility rates - has enormous socio-political implications and is soaring in importance. Demography is the most predictable and social phenomenon, yet demographers and social scientists inhabit different worlds. One goal of this conference is to initiate a conversation between demographers and scholars of ethnicity, nationalism and religion which will result in future research projects and publications. Plenary speakers: a.. Jack Goldstone, George Mason University b.. Michael Hout, University of California Berkley c.. Monica Duffy Toft, Harvard University For more conference information or to submit a paper proposal go to: www.lse.ac.uk/collections/ASEN/demography.htm email: [log in to unmask] ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Note: The material contained in this communication comes to you from the Forced Migration Discussion List which is moderated by the Refugee Studies Centre (RSC), University of Oxford.
