Ethnicity, Nationalism and Migration Section of the
International Studies Association (ENMISA)
43rd Annual International Studies Association
Convention
New Orleans, March 23-27, 2002
Call for Paper and Panel Proposals
Convention Theme: "Dissolving Boundaries: The Nexus
Between Comparative Politics and International
Relations"
ENMISA Program Statement
Next year's theme for the Annual Convention of the
International Studies Association aims to look at the
connection between comparative politics and
international relations. ENMISA is well positioned to
address this theme since the subjects that many of the
members of ENMISA work on are, by their very nature,
simultaneously concerned with domestic/comparative and
international political processes. Communal
identification and conflict have both domestic and
international roots and consequences. International
migration and refugee flows, too, have both domestic
and international causes and consequences.
We welcome paper, panel, and roundtable proposals that
address, among others, the following issues:
* The interrelationship between domestic and
international causes and consequences of
ethnic/national/religious identification and conflict
in terms of economic, political, and other conditions
* The causes and consequences of international
migration and refugee movements
* The connection between the apparent dissolution of
boundaries and the transnationalization of domestic
conflict, i.e. the move from civil war to war systems
(such as the Great Lakes region of Africa) and the
resulting war economies and the links to transnational
movements, such as human smuggling networks
* The interdisciplinary connections between ethnicity,
nationalism, and migration and the concerns of other
ISA sections, such as foreign policy analysis,
feminism, IR theory, security studies, peace research,
and international organization, as well as the
incorporation of theoretical perspectives, such as
neoinstitutionalism, which might bridge the
international/comparative divide
* Critical perspectives on identity and boundaries
Given that one of the section's goals is to foster
teaching, we would welcome a panel or roundtable
proposal which addresses the state of the art
of teaching in the areas of ethnicity, nationalism,
and migration.
Although preference will be given to proposals which
incorporate the program theme, we also welcome
submission of proposals which address any of the
broader concerns of the ENMISA section.
