CONFERENCE
"FREEDOM: The Freedom to Debate, Create, and Innovate Multidisciplinary Unconventional Ideas, Theories, and Methodologies on the Study of Population" - 2010 (2nd Annual) Meeting of the Critical Demography Association
University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Las Vegas, NV
March 5-6, 2010
Special Guest Speaker: Tukufu Zuberi, University of Pennsylvania
Critical Demography is an approach that makes explicit the manner in which the social structure differentiates dominant and subordinate populations. Accordingly, it necessitates discussion of population control and population power. In this context, one cannot speak of race, sex, and class without likewise articulating the impact of racism, sexism, and classism on various population outcomes.
Throughout the past several years, the United States and the world at large have witnessed events that have both limited and expanded social, political, and economic freedoms. While the terrorist attacks of 9/11, the resulting Patriot Act, and the current global economic crisis have restricted social and economic freedoms in the U.S. and placed more people than ever in precarious economic positions, several states have passed same sex marriage laws, President Obama has outlawed torture and secret military prisons, and the US is moving toward a health care system that will provide more coverage to more citizens. The extraction of some freedoms and granting of others has had and is bound to continue having vast impacts on population phenomena in the United States and abroad.
The 2010 meeting will focus on the presentation of concepts, theories, and methods that examine population control and population power from new and innovative perspectives. How has/will the global economic crisis change patterns of marriage, immigration, migration, and consumption? How have government policies related to welfare, health care, prisons and crime, the economy, and the military affected the most marginalized groups in the US? How do the ways we define race and ethnicity impact social policies targeted at minority groups? Will the gains of women and minorities over the past several decades be lost as a result of the economic recession and rollbacks of affirmative action? How have attitudes toward immigration changed since 9/11 and/or since the economic decline? We are interested in receiving abstracts on all of these topics and more!
Submissions on all sociological topics are welcome. We are interested in having submissions in such varied forms as:
Individual papers
Wholly constituted sessions (with names and affiliations of all presenters)
Workshops on specific topics and techniques related to teaching or conducting research on Critical Demography topics
Regular submissions for all sociological topics in any of the above formats are due by November 30, 2009. Electronic submission is available at: http://www.albany.edu/~hdh/criticaldemography/index.html
Questions about submission should be sent to: Nicole Lamarre ( nl228827@albany.edu ) or Dr. Shannon M. Monnat ( Shannon.Monnat@unlv.edu )
Program Committee: Dr. Hayward Derrick Horton, Brandie Dingman, Nicole Lamarre, Cassandra Carter, Salvatore Labarro, and Basak Ozgenc (University at Albany), Dr. Lori Latrice Sykes (John Jay College, CUNY), Dr. Shannon M. Monnat (UNLV), and Natarsha Horton (American Demographic Analysis Company
CONFERENCE
Critical Race Studies Program at UCLA School of Law
4th Annual CRS Symposium:
"Intersectionality: Challenging Theory, Reframing Politics,
Transforming Movements"
UCLA School of Law
Stewart Center
March 11 - 13, 2010
The faculty of the Critical Race Studies Program at UCLA School of Law
encourage you to save the date for the 4th Annual CRS Symposium:
"Intersectionality: Challenging Theory, Reframing Politics,
Transforming Movements"
Overview:
Since the publication of Kimberlé Crenshaw's formative articles -
Demarginalizing the Intersection of Race & Sex (1989), and Mapping the
Margins: Intersectionality, Identity Politics & Violence Against Women
of Color (1994) - the concept of intersectionality has traversed more
than a dozen academic disciplines and transnational and popular
political discourse, generated multiple conferences, monographs, and
anthologies, and animated hundreds of articles and essays. In the
twenty years since Crenshaw introduced intersectionality, critiques of
identity politics and multiculturalism and, more recently, claims of a
"post-racial" era have blossomed. In 2010, we will re-visit the
origins of intersectionality as a theoretical frame and site of legal
interventions and consider its still unfolding potential for unmasking
subordination and provoking social change.
Call for Proposals
We are pleased to solicit proposals for individual papers or whole
sessions, engaging one or more of our embedded themes, a)
intersectionality across disciplines; b) intersectional praxis; c)
intersectionality and post-racialism; d) intersectionality and
transnationalism; and e) intersectionality embodied. For an extended
description of the themes, please visit the weblink provided below.
All proposals should include the session or paper title, a 300-500
word abstract, the names, affiliations, and C.V.s or resumes of all
participants, and any audio-visual requests. Session proposals should
specify panel, roundtable, or workshop format. Panels integrating
practitioners or advocates, including both junior and senior scholars
and/or including graduate or law students, are strongly encouraged.

CONFERENCE
Emergent Cartographies:
Asian American Studies in the Twenty-first Century
Omni Austin Hotel Downtown @ 700 San Jacinto St.
University of Texas, Austin
April 7-11, 2010
Conference Co-chairs: Madeline Hsu (UT Austin) & Cathy Schlund-Vials (UConn
Storrs)
The interdisciplinary Association for Asian American Studies invites
presentation proposals from the fields of literature, geography, sociology,
political science, history, cultural studies, the applied social sciences,
education, anthropology, media and film, ethnic studies, public policy,
psychology, and communications.
The 2010 conference site is lodged squarely between the east and west coasts
and abutting Mexico. How might this location inspire us to reinscribe the
terrain of Asian American Studies to capture twenty-first century realities
and subjectivities? For example, to the surprise of most, Texas now holds
the third highest population of Asian Americans, surpassing even Hawai'i,
Illinois, and New Jersey. Journeying away from the traditional AAS
strongholds on the coasts and Hawai'i suggests the urgency of regional
perspectives reflecting newer, post 1965 populations and communities that
may fragment the field between its oldest and newest parts. We argue that a
process of dismantling is necessary so that a twenty-first century vision of
Asian American Studies might be reassembled from its many messy and morphing
parts.
From its origins in the civil rights era, Asian American Studies has been an
emergent project intellectually and institutionally. It tracks the growth
and evolution of a highly heterogeneous population constantly shifting in
location, arrival narratives, socioeconomic class, cultural formations,
political identifications, and demography. UT Austin presents opportunities
to highlight these transformations, as well as continuities, in student
activism and program building, intersections with gender and sexuality
studies, hemispheric conceptions of migration, transnational and diasporic
practices, transformative communications technologies, economic crises, new
sites of labor and employment, communities emerging from war and refugee
flight, and teaching for non-Asian populations.
To encompass the full range of research on Asian Pacific Americans, we
encourage contributions from scholars at every level of seniority and papers
ranging from community studies, pedagogical strategies, and programmatic
models to the most experimental, and integrative, of theoretical ponderings.
All proposals must be submitted on-line by Oct. 23, 2009. For instructions
on submitting proposals and other conference information, visit
www.aaastudies.org/index.html . For
more information, you may contact the AAAS Secretariat at
piaseng@illinois.edu or the Center for Asian American Studies at UT Austin
at kydawson@mail.utexas.edu .
*AV equipment will be available on a limited basis by request. Please make
your requests when sending in your proposals although the Association cannot
guarantee that equipment will be provided.
*To be included in the conference program, participants must be AAAS members
who have paid registration fees.
CONFERENCE
National Association for Chicana and Chicano Studies (NACCS) XXXVII: Chicana/o Environmental Justice Struggles for a Post-Neoliberal Age
Grand Hyatt Seattle - Downtown Seattle
Seattle, Washington
April 7-10, 2010
Deadline for Call for Papers: October 15, 2009.
Submission process will open soon. Hotel details, exhibit information, and
other conference logistics will be available soon. Check website regularly.
Since the 1960s and the farm worker anti-pesticides campaign, environmental
justice has emerged as a potent and principal force of activism and
self-organization in Chicana/o and other communities of color. Grassroots
environmental justice movements have transformed the theory, ethics, and
practice of environmentalism and changed the way we think and talk about the
environment. In contrast to notions of the environment as separate from
humans, either as “wild nature” or as exploitable “natural resource,”
environmental justice activists define the environment as the place where we
live, work, play, and worship. Our communities have challenged the
neoliberal regime of privatized environmental planning and deregulation
while promoting the re-valuation and empowerment of place-based
“traditional” ecological knowledge. Youth, and especially Chicano males, are
an especially overlooked and vulnerable population subject to acts of
environmental racism including the ecology of fear created by
criminalization and marginalization of young people in urban spaces.
Chicana/o struggles demonstrate that environmental justice is more than
resistance against racism in environmental law, planning, and regulation. It
also involves a search for “ecological democracy” and environmental
self-determination by our communities that are disproportionately impacted
by the dominant neoliberal model for the destruction of the Earth and her
peoples. These struggles are often rooted in collaborations with Native
American and other indigenous peoples.
Environmental justice links social justice with ecological resilience and
poses significant questions for Chicana/o Studies and its historic benign
neglect of ecological issues: What is the contemporary and future outlook
for Chicana/o struggles around the material conditions of our existence? How
do environmental justice struggles reflect our experiences in the
daily-lived encounter with structural violence and historical trauma? What
are the strategies of environmental justice used by our communities to
supersede the fragmented identity politics of the past three decades and
embrace the resurgence of collaborative social action-oriented research? How
does the environmental justice movement promote our struggles to move toward
a post-neoliberal age?
Call for Papers, Panels, Roundtables, and Poster Sessions
For the first time in the history of NACCS, we have adopted a conference
theme focused on critical scholarly work on human-environment
interrelations. Environmental Justice in theory and practice is the theme of
the 2010 Seattle meetings. We invite proposals for individual papers and
panels organized to address the conference theme, and roundtable discussion
sessions across disciplinary boundaries. We especially encourage paper and
panel collaborations among academic scholars, community-based organizations,
and activists in the environmental justice movement. This year we will also
be adding a Poster Session option to the conference.
Some of the themes we seek to address include:
1. Youth: We are especially interested in addressing the overlooked
vulnerable populations of male youth; role of youth in environmental justice
activism and education.
2. Indigenous communities: What are the environmental justice issues and
struggles in land grant and acequia communities? What are the ecological
issues facing Native peoples and how are these cross-linked to Chicana/o
communities and organizations?
3. Gender, sexuality, and the environment: Studies show that women of color
face extraordinary levels of disparate risk. How are issues of gender and
environmental protection related? What are the contributions of Chicanas to
discourses of environmental ethics and ecofeminism? The interrelations of
nature and sexuality are significant aspects of the discourses on
environmental justice and ethics. How is sexuality related to the
construction of our relation to the environment? Is the dominant construct
of nature as female part of the problematic of heterosexism and patriarchal
orientations?
4. Labor-environmental collaborations: The rise of blue-green” alliances has
become a critical aspect of the environmental justice movement. How are
labor and environmental justice activists collaborating and what are their
defining struggles?
5. Food justice: Everyone must eat and drink water. Our communities face
unprecedented levels of obesity, malnutrition, and hunger. What are
Chicana/o communities doing to address issues of hunger, malnutrition, and
the loss of our heritage cuisines? How is environmental justice related to
the struggle for sustainable agriculture and the resurgence of local food
systems? What are the struggles of Chicana/o communities in the area of
urban agriculture?
6. The commons: What are the struggles aiming to restore the social ecology
of urban and rural spaces including the reclaiming of common space? How is
the struggle for the ecological commons a form of resistance against
neoliberalism? Is Chicana/o urbanism the original form of “New Urbanism”?
7. Immigration and environmentalism: Anti-immigrant groups, elected
officials, and some mainstream environmental organizations often point to
immigration as a source of environmental degradation of the border or as a
source of “over-population” [sic]. What are the ecological consequences of
immigration? Why have traditionally anti-ecological groups suddenly adopted
an environmentalist slant to attack immigrants?
8. Post-NAFTA transboundary ecological politics: NAFTA unleashed an
unprecedented wave of economic integration and “maldevelopment” that has
exacerbated environmental problems and conflicts on the US-Mexico border.
What effects has NAFTA had on the incidence and nature of environmental
racism? What are environmental justice groups doing to combat these effects?
How has NAFTA affected our capacities and strategies to use environmental
laws to protect our communities and ecosystems?
9. The ecology of fear/structural violence: The environment is not just the
“natural world.” It is also the “built environment.” Our cities and rural
areas have become dangerous places that facilitate systemic and
interpersonal violence and produce the “ecology of fear.” How are
structural violence and historical trauma related to environmental justice
struggles? How are these factors changing the theory and practice of
environmental risk science?
10. History of the Chicana/o participation in the EJM: Chicana/os and other
Latina/os have played a major role in the environmental justice movement.
What are the factors leading to this leadership and participation? What are
the unique qualities of Chicana/o EJM activism?
Please note that we invite proposals across a wide variety of themes.
Proposals are not required to focus exclusively on the conference theme and
we invite NACCS participants to focus on their own established research
agendas.
Please submit your proposals no later than October 15, 2009, online at:
www.naccs.org . Acceptance notices will be sent via
email by January 31, 2010. Questions should be sent to Chair-Elect, Devon G.
Peña via email: mailto:dpena@naccs.org.
CONFERENCE
19TH ANNUAL WOMEN'S STUDIES CONFERENCE
"Women & Girls of Color: History, Heritage, Heterogeneity"
Southern Connecticut State University
April 16-17, 2010
INVITATION FOR PROPOSALS ON INTERDISCIPLINARY SCHOLARLY AND CREATIVE WORK
(Submission by December 1, 2009)
Both inside and outside of academe, women of color have actively participated in theoretical, artistic, and cultural production, influencing the ways we perceive and think about issues pertinent to women and girls. Situated by both gender and race, yet often at the margins, women of color have been instrumental in challenging scholars to critically re-conceptualize the discourses on race, gender, class, sexuality, and nationality. The scholarly work by women of color and on women of color is simultaneously multicultural, heterogeneous, interdisciplinary, and, in most instances, global and transnational. This body of literature, which has spawned a whole new area of study at universities and colleges, is among the most exciting and vibrant in feminist scholarship and publications. As a site of innovative knowledge production, women of color writing does not simply travel throughout academic disciplines in the U.S., but it also travels globally, generating significant connections with women’s writing especially globally. In the 19th annual SCSU Women’s Studies conference, we will take a close look at women and girls of color, looking back at their achievements throughout history but also pushing our thinking forward into the 21st century. Who are women and girls of color and what issues are important to them? How have women of color contributed artistically, culturally, and politically, inside universities as well as out in our communities? What challenges do woman and girls of color across races, classes, religions, and cultures face in an increasingly globalized world? How can the discourse surrounding women and girls of color challenge our ideas about race, gender, class, nationality, and sexuality?
Proposal Format: Faculty, students, staff, administrators, and community activists from all disciplines and fields are invited to submit proposals for individual papers, complete sessions, panels, or round tables. Poster sessions, performance pieces, video recordings, and other creative works are also encouraged. For individual papers, please submit a one-page abstract. For complete panels, submit a one-page abstract for each presentation plus an overview on the relationship among individual components. For the poster sessions and artwork, submit a one-page overview. All proposals must include speaker’s/speakers’ name(s), affiliation(s), and contact information (address, E-mail, & telephone number). Please also indicate preference for Friday afternoon, Saturday morning or Saturday afternoon; all attempts will be made to honor schedule requests.
Panels: Each 75 minute session usually includes three presenters and a session moderator, but individual presenters may request an entire session for a more substantial paper or presentation. Presenters are encouraged, though not required, to form their own panels. The conference committee will group individual proposals into panels and assign a moderator. Please indicate in your contact information if you are willing to serve as a moderator.
Posters, Art Displays, and Slide Presentations: A poster presentation consists of an exhibit of materials that report research activities or informational resources in visual & summary form. An art display consists of a depiction of feminist concerns in an artistic medium. Both types of presentations provide a unique platform that facilitates personal discussion of work with interested colleagues & allows meeting attendees to browse through highlights of current research. Please indicate in your proposal your anticipated needs in terms of space, etc.
In keeping with the conference theme, suggested topics include, but are not limited to:
Women of Color as a Social Construct

University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), USA
29 June - 2 July 2010
http://www.HumanitiesConference.com/
We are very pleased to be holding this year's conference in Los Angeles, California. Los Angeles is one of the most diverse and dynamic cities in the United States, attracting immigrants and visitors from around the world to its wide range of attractions, activities and professional opportunities. Although Los Angeles is perhaps most well recognized as the center of U.S. movie and television production, its cultural role exceeds that of its most famous industry. Its music, literary and visual and performing arts communities, for instance, reflect the diverse perspectives of Angelinos and are internationally influential. The Los Angeles area is home to some of the best galleries and museums in the country and to distinguished centers for humanities research, such as the Getty Center, the Huntington Library and the William Andrews Clark Memorial Library. The city is also a center of higher education, boasting many of the finest colleges and universities in the United States, including the host of this year's International Conference on New Directions in the Humanities, the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA).
The Humanities Conference provides a space for dialogue and for the publication of new knowledge that builds on the past traditions of the humanities whilst setting a renewed agenda for their future.
In addition to an impressive line-up of international plenary speakers, the Conference will also include numerous paper, workshop and colloquium presentations by practitioners, teachers and researchers. We would particularly like to invite you to respond to the Conference Call-for-Papers. Presenters may choose to submit written papers for publication in the fully refereed International Journal of the Humanities. If you are unable to attend the Conference in person, virtual registrations are also available which allow you to submit a paper for refereeing and possible publication in this fully refereed academic Journal.
Whether you are a virtual or in-person presenter at this Conference, we also encourage you to present on the Conference YouTube Channel. Please select the Online Sessions link on the Conference website for further details.
The deadline for the next round in the call for papers (a title and short abstract) is 13 August 2009. Future deadlines will be announced on the Conference website after this date. Proposals are reviewed within two weeks of submission. Full details of the Conference, including an online proposal submission form, are to be found at the Conference website - http://www.HumanitiesConference.com/ .
We look forward to receiving your proposal and hope you will be able to join us in Los Angeles in summer 2010.
