The 2004 Organization of American Historians convention program will be organized around the theme of American Revolutions. That choice is informed both by the location of the meeting in Boston, the epicenter of the movement for American independence; and by its occurrence on the fiftieth anniversary of the Supreme Court’s decision in Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka. The use of the plural “Revolutions” in the conference theme is intentional. The OAH expects the program to explore a wide variety of political, social, cultural,
intellectual, economic, diplomatic, military, technological, and environmental transformations in American history--as well as movements that sought and failed to bring about such transformations. We also expect the program to examine counterrevolutions and anti-radical backlash and to include sessions and papers that emphasize continuity,challenging the “revolutionary” character of particular moments, movements, or trends in American history. Finally, we welcome sessions that explore the relationship of the United States to various sorts of revolutions in the rest of the world, as well as those that examine
revolutions in the interpretation of American history.
