36th Annual Conference, Caribbean Studies Association, May 30 – June 3, 2011, World Trade Center, Curaçao

The CSA is calling for papers for its 36th annual conference. The theme is “Building a New House: Towards New Caribbean Futures in an Age of Uncertainty.” We are seeking scholarly papers from individuals spanning the broadest disciplinary and methodological range whose work focuses upon the Caribbean and its Diasporas. While we consider individual papers, we encourage submissions of entire panel proposals. We also welcome graduate student submissions.

The program committee encourages paper and panel proposals that address the conference theme, although it will also consider other topics. More information on the conference theme is available at the CSA website, http://www.caribbeanstudiesassociation.org. All submissions must be made via the online submission form at http://www.caribbeanstudiesassociation.org. The deadline for submissions is December 15, 2010.

CSA is able to offer a limited number of travel grants to assist selected participants. For further information, please see our website or our Newsletter where the full Call for Applications to the Travel Grant will be published soon in English, Spanish and French. As CSA is striving to develop its travel fund, we greatly appreciate any donation made to it. The travel grant application should be submitted by December 15, 2010, to Dr. Samuel Furé Davis at sfuredavis@flex.uh.cu.
