TR: Africa Conference 2011- Call for Papers

Scholars are invited to submit conference papers and full panal proposals for the 2011 conference on Africa in World Politics. The conference which is scheduled to hold at the University of Texas, Austin from March 25-27, 2011 is to create an interdisciplinary dialogue concerning Africa’s contemporary and historical place in world politics.

As with previous conferences, participants will be drawn from different parts of the world. Papers can also be submitted together as a panel. Submitted papers will be assigned to particular panels according to similarities in theme, topic, discipline, or geographical location. Graduate students are especially encouraged to attend and present papers and will be partnered with a senior scholar to encourage their own growth as scholars.

The deadline for submitting paper proposals is November 30, 2010. Proposals should include a 250-word abstract and title, as well as the author’s name, address, telephone number, email address, and institutional affiliation.
All abstracts are to be submitted to:
