14th Biennial Conference of Europeanists Call for Papers
"Europe and the World: Integration, Interdependence, Exceptionalism?"
March 11-13, 2004, Chicago
The Council for European Studies announces a call for papers for its 14th
International Conference of Europeanists, to be held in Chicago, March
11-13, 2004. The deadline for receipt of all submissions is October
15,2003.
Since its first conference in 1979, the Council has brought together
American and European scholars in the social sciences and humanities to
foster scholarly exchange and collaboration. The Council strongly
encourages interdisciplinary and trans-Atlantic panels that promote
dialogue within the academy and policy communities, including Western and
Eastern Europe. Participation by graduate students is welcome. Proposals
from all fields of study are invited, and the program committee especially
welcomes proposals on the following themes:
* Reckoning with the European Past: Empires, the Cold War and Human
Rights
* Europeanization: Prospects, Opportunities, Challenges
* European Cities, European Regions
* New Party Politics: East and West, North and South
* Constitutions, Governance, and Citizenship
* Traveling, Trafficking, and Transnational Regulation
* Transformations in Work, Welfare, and Family: New Risks, New
Politics
The program committee will consider panel and individual paper
submissions.
Please note that the acceptance rate for submissions of complete panels
(with three or four papers or roundtable participants, a chair and one or
two discussants) has been higher than for individual papers in the past,
and we strongly encourage scholars working on similar topics to propose
panels. The Council also encourages those who would be interested in
serving as discussants or panel chairs to submit their names and areas of
expertise.
Please note participants are limited to two presentations on theconference
program and individual scheduling requests cannot be assured. A limited
number of subsidies may be available for scholars travelling from Europe
and for graduate students, pending funding. These subsidies consist of
reimbursement for scholars traveling from Europe of three nights at the
basic conference hotel room rate and two nights for graduate students.
Questions can be addressed to John K. Glenn, Executive Director, or to the
members of the program committee: John Stephens (political science,
UNC-Chapel Hill, chair), James Cronin (history, Boston College), Adrian
Favell (sociology, UCLA), Anna Grzymala Busse (political science, Yale),
