Call for Proposals

The Challenge of Globalization: Incorporating Peace, Justice and Human Rights
October 14-17, 2004
University of San Francisco, San Francisco, CA

Resistance to globalization has led its defenders to speak of
"globalization with a human face". Is this a genuine effort to resolve the
inequalities and injustices that have accompanied the globalization
phenomenon, or an effort to deflect criticism and protest? What would it
really take to globalize not only markets, but peace, justice and human
rights?

We invite proposals for paper presentations, organized panels, roundtable
discussions, workshops, and other creative contributions on these and
related questions, and on pedagogical innovations designed to tackle these
issues in K-12 and in university classrooms. In addition, we welcome other
contributions consistent with our mission statement (See
http://www.peacejusticestudies.org). These themes would include social
justice and social change, peace movements and social movements,
nonviolence, peace studies and peace education, conflict resolution and
transformation, human rights, feminism and anti-racism, global capitalism
and resistance to "globalization from above," critical pedagogy, popular
education and diversity and multiculturalism. Work in any discipline, and
interdisciplinary work, is welcome.

Please send an abstract (no more than 200 words) to Margaret Groarke,
Manhattan College, Bronx, NY 10471 or pjsa2004@manhattan.edu (please put
your last name in the Subject line of your message). A brief biographical
sketch would also be helpful.

The deadline for proposal submission is May 31, 2004. Submissions will be
acknowledged by email or postcard. Late proposals will be reviewed and
accepted subject to space on the program.

You will be notified about the status of your proposal by July 15.
