Dear colleague,
We have received your email address from the organizers of the conference
'Sexual Diversity and Human Rights'. We therefore think you might be
interested in the following.
We would like to announce the SUMMER INSTITUTE ON SEXUALITY, CULTURE AND
SOCIETY organized by the Universiteit of Amsterdam. The Institute on
Sexuality, Culture and Society is an intensive four-week summer program
which focuses on the study of sexuality across cultures and is taught by an
international faculty team (Carole Vance, Gilbert Herdt, Mike Tan and many
others).
The Summer Institute was begun in 1995, and has enjoyed four years of
unparalleled success. The Institute is an academic summer program open to
students from around the world.
We are encouraging advanced students, primarily PhD and MA students in the
socio-cultural sciences with a serious interest in sexuality study, to
apply for participation in the Fifth Annual Institute, July 10 - August 3,
2000.
The summer institute in 1999 featured 23 students of American, European and
Third World background, all of whom took courses in a variety of areas
dealing with the anthropology of sexual cultures, the social history of
sexuality, the history of erotic art, the social theory of sexuality, and a
number of additional areas germane to human sexuality. These students had a
wonderful learning experience, and we are gratified not only by their
responses to us, but also by their recommendations that their peers apply
for admission to this year's Institute.
Please have your students apply directly to the Universiteit van Amsterdam,
at the below address, or visit our WEB SITE with the latest information at:

With all best wishes and thanks,
Sincerely yours,
