Participants: All ACA/PCA Men’s Studies Presenters and Attendees.
The forum is open to all conference attendees and presenters who are interested in contemporary issues and concerns related to the growing body of scholarly work on men and masculinities. The time will be spent discussing issues of coordination, refinement, and expansion of scholarship in the area of men’s studies and the role of the “Mascu-linities and Men’s Studies Alliance” (MAMSA) in addressing these issues. While this forum is not intended to be a “planning session” for next year’s conference, ideas for possible workshops, seminar presenta-tions, and/or “thematic panels” (to be organized by those participants suggesting them), are welcome. Participants who wish to invite specific “Keynote” or “Featured” speakers may also bring these ideas to the forum for discussion. Any specific suggestions and/or items that you wish to see put on the agenda should be sent to me at the e-mail address above.
