CALL FOR PAPERS:

CRCEES Research Days, 11-12 May 2007

Kelvin Conference Centre

Call for Papers


The Centre for Russian, Central and East European Studies (CRCEES)  
will be holding the
first of its annual Research Days at the Kelvin Conference Centre,  
University of Glasgow,
on 11-12 May 2007.

The plan is to have a combination of research panels, plenary sessions  
and informal
workshops in order to explore the five research themes within CRCEES.  
These are:

Aspects of identity and culture and their social, political and  
economic implications;

Economic and social transformation;

Political transformation and international relations;

Literary, cinematic and cultural developments in the area;

The politics of language.


CRCEES has established an Organising Committee to arrange this event,  
chaired by Geoff
Swain (Glasgow) and comprising Moya Flynn and Jon Oldfield (Glasgow),  
Cynthia Marsh
(Nottingham) and Lara Ryazanova-Clarke (Edinburgh)

The Organising Committee is calling for proposals for individual  
papers or panels,
plenary sessions, and workshops. It is particularly keen to involve  
contributions from
post-graduate students; these may either take the form of papers  
integrated within panels
or discreet post-graduate events. Participants from outside the CRCEES  
network are
welcome, but their funding can not be guaranteed.

The members of the Organising Committee are happy to give advice, and  
all propels should
be with Geoff Swain (g.swain at lbss.gla.ac.uk) by the deadline of 31  
January 2007.
