We seek contributions from Anthropology, Economics, English, History, Philosophy, Sociology, and related fields and will favor proposals that appeal to a multidisciplinary audience. The efficacy of interdisciplinary analysis lies in an emphasis on intellectual history and rhetoric.

Please send an abstract to Brad Pasanek, English (bmp7e@virginia.edu) and Simone Polillo, Sociology (sp4ft@virginia.edu), by July 15th, 2009.

We will notify you shortly thereafter of the status of your submission.

Final papers should be no longer than 15-20 pages, and presentations no longer than 15-20 minutes.
