CALL FOR PAPERS
THE COSMOPOLITAN METROPOLIS
Sixth Biennial Urban History Association Conference
New York City
October 26-28, 2012
The Program Committee seeks submissions for
panels, roundtable discussions, and individual papers on all aspects of
urban, suburban, and metropolitan history for the Sixth Biennial Urban
History Conference in New York City
on October 26-28, 2012. The UHA
Program is pleased to announce that
Columbia
University will serve as
the local host for this year’s conference.
In particular, we encourage papers that
explore the theme of the Cosmopolitan Metropolis.
This encompasses issues of ethnic and social diversity and economic
and cultural globalism in the richly varied metropolises of the United States and the world.
We seek contributions that pertain to all types of metropolitan
history not only in North America but in Latin America, Europe, Asia,
Australia, and
Africa.
Sessions on ancient and pre-modern as well as modern periods are
welcome. Graduate student
submissions are encouraged.
We prefer complete panels but individual
papers are also welcome. Please
designate a single person to serve as a contact for all complete panels.
For traditional panels, include a brief explanation of the overall
theme, a one-page abstract of each paper, and a one or two page c.v. for
each participant. Roundtable
proposals should also designate a contact person and submit a one page theme
synopsis and a one or two page c.v. for each presenter.
All those submitting individual papers should include a one-page
abstract and a one or two page c.v.
E-mail submissions by March 15, 2012 to Janet R. Bednarek at
Janet.Bednarek@notes.udayton.edu.
Submissions should be included in attachments as either Word (2003 or
2007) or Word Perfect documents.
