UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN, ANN ARBOR
CALL FOR PAPERS
International Conference on "Armenia and Armenians in International Treaties"
The Armenian Studies Program (ASP) at the University
of Michigan, Ann Arbor, will be convening an international conference
on the theme "Armenia and Armenians in International Treaties." The
conference will be held on the campus of the University of Michigan,
March 18-21, 2009.
International treaties represent critical moments in
the history of Armenia and of the Armenian people that had serious
implications for their status and future as well as that of
neighboring peoples and countries. International treaties also
constitute the linchpin of diplomatic history, an aspect of Armenian
history that has been neglected. The purpose of the conference is to
determine patterns and processes which might shed light on the
challenges faced by Armenia and Armenians in their long history.
For the purposes of this conference the term
"treaties" will include also international agreements such as the one
between the Armenian merchants of India and the British East India
Company in 1688 or the May 1896 agreement regarding the Eastern
provinces of the Ottoman Empire.
Scholars interested in the subject of Armenian
diplomatic history from earliest times to the present are invited to
submit abstracts for their proposed papers on the theme to Ms. Gloria
Caudill, ASP Administrator, ([email protected]) by Friday, October 3,
2009. ASP will notify scholars regarding the acceptance of their
proposal by the end of October, 2009. Final papers should be submitted
two weeks before the conference, by February 18, 2009. The papers will
be made available to all participants in order to limit presentations
during the conference to 20 minutes per participant and provide time
for discussion during panels.
The conference will begin with a reception on
the evening of Wednesday, March 18, followed by three full days of
panels. The conference will be webcast live internationally. Professor
Gerard Libaridian is the main convener of the conference.
The language of the conference will be English,
although presentations in Armenian as well as in French, Russian and
Spanish will be accepted as long as the presenter can provide an
English translation of the paper two weeks before the conference
ASP will cover all expenses related to travel, lodging
and meals for participants.
