UCLA FACULTY CENTER
Thinking
Gender is a public conference highlighting graduate student research on women,
sexuality and gender across all disciplines and historical periods. We invite
submissions for individual papers or pre-constituted panels.
We
welcome research on any topic and across historical periods and disciplines.
This year we are particularly interested in research on labor, social justice,
public policy, the global and globalization, race and ethnicity in the
Americas, and the “new” economy (austerity) and its effects on
women and people of color. Additionally, because this year is the Center for
the Study of Women’s 25th anniversary, we are especially
interested in topics relating to feminism’s past and present, such as the
state of feminism, changing notions of feminism, post-feminism or third-wave
feminism, feminist community/ies both off and online, and feminist icons and
leaders.
For
individual papers, please submit a 250-word abstract, a CV (2 pages max, no
resumes, please), and a brief bibliography (1 page max). For panels, please
submit a 250-word description of the panel topic in addition to the materials
required for the individual paper submissions. Please reference the submission
guidelines at http://www.csw.ucla.edu/thinkinggender.html,
and note that only complete applications adhering to the stated guidelines will
be accepted. Please also note that the Center for the Study of Women cannot
provide travel funds for conference presenters.
Deadline for
Submissions: Monday, October 19, 2010, by Noon.
