The Arab American Studies Association invites panel and paper proposals for its 2020 triennial conference on the theme of the politics of refusal and impossibility, to be held at San Diego State University on April 3rd-5th, 2020.
Drawing inspiration from our meeting in Southern California, the conference will attend to questions related to the im/permeability of borders; refugee status and asylum; transnational movements, alliances, and migrations; and the material consequences of these politics for the life experiences of Arab Americans throughout the transnational Americas.
As an interdisciplinary organization, we seek papers on politics, society, and culture from across disciplines, including anthropology, cultural studies, economics, history, law, literature, philosophy, politics, psychology, public health, religion, and sociology.
Please submit abstracts for papers and panels to https://easychair.org/cfp/AASA2020 by October 1, 2019. More information about the conference, including detailed instructions for submission, may be found at www.arabamericanstudies.org/aasa-2020.
