This year's conference will have two highlight sessions, one on the Korean War (commemorating the 50th anniversary of the start of the war), and a second on Canadian-American relations. Invited speakers for this year's event include Dr. Bruce Cumings (University of Chicago) and Katherine Weathersby (independent scholar).

We welcome proposals from historians and scholars working in related disciplines dealing with the broadest possible range of topics in international history and foreign policy. Given the year and the venue, we particularly invite proposals on the Korean War or on Canada-US relations. Preference will be given to complete panels and roundtables.

Please send proposals--including a one-page abstract for each paper, a current one-page c.v. for each participant, and current mailing and e-mail addresses for each participant--to the address listed below by 10 December 1999.
