The Caribbean Studies Association Website is up and running again; please bookmark the new web address and send to your colleagues: http://www.caribbeanstudiesassociation.org Thank you for your patience as we sorted through some technical difficulties. CSA2010 will be held May 24-28 in Barbados, and the Conference Theme is "Understanding the Everyday Occurrence of Violence in the Cultural Life of the Caribbean". The Call for Papers is on the website and submissions (at the bottom of the page) are now open. Please also take a look at the taskforce being set up by our CSA Vice-President Holger Henke; you can find this on the homepage. We are still finalising the website, and will be adding the call in French, Spanish and Dutch over the next few days. Again, thanks for your understanding and we hope you can join us in Barbados in May 2010. Alissa Trotz (CSA Program Chair 2009-2010), on behalf of The Caribbean Studies Association Executive Council
