Call For Papers

Deadline: February 5, 2012

The conference seeks to bring together scholars from a variety of
disciplines who are interested in the power dynamics that shape
identity and the forces of identity that shape society. Papers should
address categories of identity (such as ethnicity, gender, faith,
citizenship, and class) and their interplay with the forces of
religion, culture, politics, and markets. The scope of the conference
takes in Eurasia past and present, spanning from the Black Sea to
Mongolia, from Siberia to South Asia.

Stressing multidisciplinarity, submissions are welcome from a variety
of departments (anthropology, archeology, art history, Central Asian
Studies, East Asian languages and cultures, history, Middle Eastern
Studies, Mongolian Studies, political science, religion, sociology,
Slavic languages and literature and South Asian studies).

Possible approaches may include, but are not limited to:
- sexuality and the family
- networks of movement
- language and education
- disease and the body
- violence in various guises
- literature, folklore and the arts
- the state and its borders
- negotiating kinship and clan
