2011 Conference of the Society for Historians of American Foreign Relations

Call for Papers

Waging War, Making Peace, Crossing Borders

The Society for Historians of American Foreign Relations (SHAFR) invites
proposals for panels and individual papers at its annual conference to be
held June 23-25, 2011 at the Hilton Alexandria Mark Center, Alexandria,
Virginia. In order to receive full consideration, proposals should be
submitted no later than December 1, 2010.

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 continuing strengths in diplomatic, strategic, and
foreign relations history, particularly for the post-1900 period, the
Committee encourages proposals that deal with non-state actors and/or
pre-1900 transnational 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 coincide with the tenth anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attacks the
Committee has chosen the theme Waging War, Making Peace, Crossing Borders
and would like to extend a special invitation to panels that will place
these events in their broader historical context.  Specific themes may
include, but are not limited to terrorism and counter-terrorism; insurgency
and counterinsurgency; cultural and religious aspects of warfare,
international conflict, and peacemaking; political Islam; memorialization of
war and its victims; and the militarization of foreign policy.

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.

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 <
http://shafr2011.blogspot.com/>"panelists seeking panelists" link at the <

Annual Meeting website.

All submissions should be electronic.  Please include the following
information in a single Word document that begins with the surname of the
contact person, e.g., "Smith.shafr.2011.doc."

1. Panel title & short, one paragraph description.
