The Ninth Annual Graduate Student History and Theory Conference, to be
held January 28, 2006, will explore issues of race, ideology and diaspora from a conceptual and world historical point of view not limited to analysis of Europe and the Americas. Graduate student panels and individual papers addressing these themes historically and from an interdisciplinary perspective will be considered. Please submit proposals by November 11, 2005. Participants are encouraged to examine ways in which colonial and postcolonial states ‘essentialize’ race. What are the effects of these on diasporic peoples? How do such communities and individuals constructively engage the postcolonial state, through means both political and personal, in everyday life? We also seek submissions that explore race, gender and political ideology, particularly that which has contributed to the construction of a ‘transnational modernity.’
