Crossing Boundaries: Foreign Relations and Transborder Histories 2010 Conference of the Society for Historians of American Foreign Relations Call for Papers The Society for Historians of American Foreign Relations (SHAFR) invites proposals for panels and individual papers at its annual conference to be held June 24-26, 2010 at the Pyle Conference Center at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. In order to receive full consideration, proposals should be submitted no later than December 1, 2009. The program committee welcomes panels and paper proposals that deal with the history of United States' role in the world in the broadest sense. In order to complement SHAFR's signature and continuing strengths in diplomatic, strategic, and foreign relations history, particularly for the post-1900 period, the Committee especially encourages proposals that deal with non-state actors and/or pre-1900 transborder histories, as well as proposals that involve histories of gender and race, cultural history, religious history, environmental history, economic history, labor history, immigration history, and borderlands history. The Committee also invites applications from scholars working in areas other than U. S. history, and panels that include work by such scholars. Finally, the committee welcomes panels dealing with issues such as pedagogy and professionalization. To defray traveling costs for some graduate students and first-time participants, SHAFR is offering a number of competitive fellowships. Please read below for further information. The committee seeks complete panels with a coherent theme in one of the following formats: (1) three papers, chair, and commentator; or (2) a roundtable discussion with a chair and participants. Panels and roundtables must have at least three presenters. The committee also welcomes panels using innovative procedures. We request that applicants have no more than two roles at the conference and only one presentation of their own research. Please read and follow the instructions at: SHAFR 2010 Annual Meeting <http://www.shafr.org/conferences/annual/2010-annual-meeting/> link at the SHAFR website, http://www.shafr.org <http://www.shafr.org/> . Although proposals for individual papers will be considered, proposals for complete panels are encouraged and will receive preference. Those seeking to create or complete a panel should consult the "panelists seeking panelists" <http://www.shafr.org/conferences/annual/> link at the SHAFR 2010 Annual Meeting <http://www.shafr.org/conferences/annual/2010-annual-meeting/> website. Electronic submissions are strongly encouraged, but paper submissions will also be accepted. Please email a copy of your application as a single Word file attachment to Anne Foster and Naoko Shibusawa, program chairs, at: program-chair@shafr.org.
