The International Studies Programs at DePaul University and the University of Illinois at Chicago invite graduate and undergraduate students to submit a one-page research paper proposal for the 2013 annual student conference to be held on May 7, 2013.

 

The theme of this year’s conference is Interventions in the Post-Colonial World. Proposals should address one or more of the themes in the following questions:

  • In what ways and on what grounds do state and non-state actors carry out political, economic, social, and environmental interventions?
  • What is the nature of the relationships between local actors, including political and economic elites, international institutions, and imperial powers?
  • What forms of resistance appear in response to intervention? What are the root causes of these interventions and what are their legacies?

See our website for additional submission guidelines. Submit abstracts to sdirr1@depaul.edu by 5pm on March 22nd, 2013.
