CALL FOR ABSTRACTS

We are currently accepting abstract submissions for the 2005 IASSCS
Conference on Sexual Rights and Moral Panics. Join academics, teachers,
students, advocates, NGOs and CBOs, policy?makers and health providers from
around the world as they discuss original research and provide workshops on
the intersection of sexual rights and moral panics globally and in the U.S.

What are sexual rights? Why do sexual rights so often provoke moral panics?
Moral panics have historically surrounded issues such as sexual purity,
abortion, homosexuality, sexuality education, and sexual violence. More
recently reproductive technologies, LGBTQI identities, disabilities, and
same sex marriages have been at the center of moral controversies. This
conference examines how society and the media respond to these debates by
analyzing the production of moral and sexual panics, past and present.

Deadline for submission of abstracts: April 1st, 2005
