Dear Colleagues,
I would like to put together one or more panel/s
for the annual meeting of the www.aag.org to
take place in Las Vegas in April 2009 related to one or more of the following
subjects:
1. Latin American Cities (I could present on urban
gangs in Porto Alegre, Brazil).
2. International Institutions (my work is about the
so-called Urban International concentrating on the IFHP- International
Federation for Housing and Planning and UCLG- United Cities and Local
Governments, ex-IULA- International Union of Local Authorities).
3. Non-Western and/or Non-North Hemispheric
contributions to Geographical or Social Theory (in this case I could present on
some aspect of the work of the Brazilian Geographer Milton Santos).
If you would like to take place in any of these
panels, please do let me know by sending an abstract asap and registering to the
conference in the website of the www.aag.org
sending me your pin number so that I put you in the panel (otherwise the
conference organizers will put you elsewhere).
With many thanks and all my best
wishes,
Joel Outtes, DPhil
