the UCLA Department of Slavic Languages and Literatures, will
be held from 8:30 A. M. to 5:30 P. M. on April 10, 2010 in Royce Hall
306, on the UCLA campus.
The Kurultai is a graduate conference on Eurasian cultural interactions,
featuring scholars whose work focuses on moments of contact and
conflict in Eurasia, beyond the established disciplinary boundaries.
The conference will be held in a workshop format; panelists will
submit their papers ahead of time in order to maximize coherent and
productive discussion. As noted below, the papers will be posted online
as of April 3.
The conference will open with a keynote address by Alexander
Diener of Pepperdine University, author of several works on the topic
of national identity and contact in present-day Eurasia, including One
Homeland or Two: Nationalization and Transnationalization of
Mongolia's Kazakhs (2009) and Homeland Conceptions and Ethnic
Integration Among Kazakhstan's Germans and Koreans (2004).
The keynote address will be followed by three panels organized according
to the themes of Culture, Theory, and Development and Policy. The panel
participants are an international group, representing four different countries
and a variety of academic orientations.
Conference Program:
All sessions will be held in room 306 of Royce Hall, at the University
