Third Annual Danyliw Research Seminar in Contemporary Ukrainian Studies

CALL FOR PAPER PROPOSALS

The Chair of Ukrainian Studies, with the support of the Wolodymyr George
Danyliw Foundation, will be holding its Third Annual Danyliw Research
Seminar in Contemporary Ukrainian Studies at the University of Ottawa on
27-29 September 2007. The Seminar will feature research papers, touching on
Ukraine, from the disciplines of political science, anthropology
(ethnology), sociology, economics, religious studies, demography, geography
and other fields of social science. Papers with a theoretical and
comparative focus are particularly solicited. Proposals touching on Belarus
will also be considered.

For the first time, the Seminar will hold a special section devoted to
current historical research. Applications on all themes, including but not
limited to the topics of imperialism, the famine, the Second World War, and
nation-building, will be examined.

Scholars and doctoral students are invited to submit a 1000 word paper
proposal and a 250 word biographical statement, by email attachment, to
Dominique Arel, Chair of Ukrainian Studies, at darel@uottawa.ca. The
proposal deadline is 31 May 2007. To be eligible, papers must not have been
accepted for publication by the time of the Seminar. The Chair will cover
the expenses of participants, including discussants, to the Seminar. An
international selection committee will review the proposals and notify
applicants shortly after the deadline.

The aim of the Seminar is to provide a unique forum for researchers from
Canada, the United States, Ukraine, Europe and elsewhere to engage in
fruitful inter-disciplinary dialogue, disseminate cutting-edge research
papers on the Chair web site, encourage publications in various outlets, and
stimulate collaborative research projects. Papers of the First Annual
Danyliw Research Seminar in Contemporary Ukrainian Studies can be downloaded
at http://www.ukrainianstudies.uottawa.ca/news/danyliw_conf05.html. Papers
from the Second Annual Seminar will be made available shortly on the
website. The Seminar adopts the format of a Workshop, where each
presentation is followed by group discussion, and is open to the public.

The Seminar is made possible by the commitment of the Wolodymyr George
Danyliw Foundation to the pursuit of excellence in the study of contemporary
Ukraine.
