Call for Papers: ASMEA Annual Conference

Permalink 02 April 09    Inside Justice ®   Renee Dopplick    Tags: Nuclear Nonproliferation, Middle East, Professional, Call for Papers, International Criminal Law     Last updated: 02 April 09
The second annual conference of the Association for the Study of the Middle East and Africa (ASMEA) will be held 22-24 October 2009 at the Key Bridge Marriott in Washington, D.C. ASMEA is a new academic society dedicated to promoting the highest standards of research and teaching in Middle Eastern and African studies, and related fields. It is a response to the mounting interest in these increasingly inter-related fields, and the absence of any single group addressing them in a comprehensive, multi-disciplinary fashion.

The Association currently is seeking proposals to present papers at the 2009 conference. Abstracts should pertain to theme of the conference and consist of a one page outline of the subject.

Among the areas of scholarship that ASMEA is interested in exploring are the issues relating to:
  • Conflict and crime in Africa and the Middle East
  • Genocide
  • Terrorism
  • Organized crime
  • Corruption
  • Piracy
  • Truth and reconciliation commissions
  • Democratization
The deadline is 1 June 2009.
