This year’s keynote speaker will be Dr. Paul Kramer of Vanderbilt University. Dr. Kramer, an influential scholar of 20th century American history in a transnational/global context, is the author of the prize-winning study The Blood of Government: Race, Empire, the United States and the Philippines (University of North Carolina Press, 2006), and is currently at work on a book on the geopolitics of U. S. immigration policy across the 20th century.
Held in one of Florida’s most popular tourist destinations, this year’s conference will offer a welcome respite from winter’s rigors as well as an opportunity to participate in one of the nation’s most rewarding regional history conferences.
