We are pleased to announce the call for proposals for our third annual workshop on Race and International Relations. The workshop will be organized by Zoltán I. Búzás (University of Notre Dame) under the umbrella of the International Race and Rights Lab with the generous support of the Klau Institute for Civil and Human Rights. The deadline for proposal submissions (500 words) is December 20, 2024. The workshop will take place in person in South Bend on March 27-28, 2025. Full papers will be due a week before the workshop.
We invite paper proposals on any topic related to race, racism, and anti-racism in international relations broadly defined. We aim to bring together a variety of scholars to build on the existing international study of race. We especially encourage advanced graduate students, post-doctoral scholars, and junior faculty to apply, but everyone is welcome. We are very interested in studies that have a human rights angle, but we welcome every type of race-related research with an international focus, regardless of substantive topic and methodological orientation. Presenters will receive in-depth feedback on their papers and will meet scholars with shared academic interests.
The International Race and Rights Lab and the Klau Institute for Civil and Human Rights are based on a vision that integrates domestic and international approaches to race and human rights. We aim to support and be part of a community focused on advancing the international study of race, racism, and anti-racism. You can find our previous programs here.
Questions and abstracts should be sent to Zoltán I. Búzás (zbuzas@nd.edu).
