Dear Comparativists,
     Perhaps this should be the last email to the general gep-ed list on this 
matter except 1)to thank Raul for taking this on and 2)to modify Paul's 
suggestion.  Even if we develop a separate comparativists' list, we should use 
the gep-ed list to continue exploring the nexus between global and comparative 
concerns.

Best,
Sherrie

Dear all,

First of all, thanks everyone for the kind emails and suggestions about
the need for a list for comparative studies. It seems from your emails
that the topic has resonated within the list.

I will second Mike Maniates' suggestion that anyone interested in the
comparativist list, please contact me directly and I will compile a list
of interested folks, as well as explore possibilities for a separate
list-serve.

All the best,
Raul
