----------------------------CALL FOR PAPERS-----------------------
The History Graduate Students at the State University of New York at
Binghamton present:
Gendered Revisions: Identity, Culture & Conflict in History
A Graduate Student Conference
April 11, 12 1997
Papers are invited on all aspects of women's and gender history.
Perspectives on United States history, the history of Latin America and
the Caribbean, European history and all other fields are welcomed.
Especially encouraged are papers that utilize a global perspective. We
hope to complicate the discussion of gendered identities through
consideration of other, perhaps competing identities, such as those
negotiated through paradigms of race, class, ethnicity, sexuality, and
national location. The conference aims to provide an intellectually
vigorous and supportive atmosphere for graduate students presenting
papers.
Proposals for papers, 1-2 pages in length, are due by February 1, 1997.
Papers will be due by March 15, 1997.

Dear All:
I seem to be receiving a series of conference calls. I hope they're
useful to some of you. If anyone attends these conferences, it would
be useful if you considered sharing your topic within this forum.
ECOFEM could be a place for discussions regarding ideas, or possibly
a space to provide some peer review. Just some thoughts on expanding
the site and using different forms of communication.

------- 5th ANNUAL COUNTER-DISCIPLINARY CONFERENCE-------
SUNY Binghamton graduate students invite submissions for:
CROSSING THE BOUNDARIES V
A Counter-Disciplinary Graduate Student Conference
April 4-5, 1997
SUNY Binghamton
Binghamton, New York
This year's conference will focus on:
"Translating/Transposing Cultures"
The collective of the 5th annual Crossing the Boundaries Conference
invites members from various cultural spaces and different academic
disciplines to examine the issues of cultural translation and/or
transposition. We invite paper and panel proposals, as well as
encourage creative, non-formal, and interactive presentations (e.g.
video, performance art, installations, interactive multimedia,
etc...). Completed panel proposals are encouraged and
enthusiastically received. This conference has been established and
is run by graduate students as a site of resistance.
Some possible themes:
*issues of translation: being translated; representation outside of
one's language and culture; what gets imposed?; how is one hailed?
*pedagogy: teaching Postcolonial and Commonwealth literatures;
teaching "other" cultures and classes
*cyber-whatever: what gets "translated" through machine interface?
*high culture/pop culture transpositions
*multiculturalism and identity politics: unity, coalition forming,
marginalization, and imposition of difference
*queer work: what gets "translated" to/from feminist, gender, or
postcolonial projects?
*ideology and its pervasiveness
*activism and academia: transposing community and academy
*comparative histories (e.g. latin american, caribbean, asian, etc)
*sex, disease, vilification, power
*appropriation, imperialism, post-colonialisms
*liminal frontiers: nomadism, hybridism and territorial mapping
*the social constructions of pleasure, memory and the (un)conscious
*working class identity, labour strikes and ritual protests
*the built environment: urban planning translations/transpositions
*the inter-merger of gender, science and technology
*dressing for power, dressing for pleasure
*"the new tribalism" and heroin chic
*Website publishing: info technology, privatization and culture
*morphing cultures

1997 to:
