Call for Papers "Chinese Perspectives on Culture and Society" Interdisciplinary Conference Florida Gulf Coast University (FGCU) International Cultural Research Network (ICRN), University of Alberta Fort Myers, FL (USA) February 24-27, 2005
Florida Gulf Coast University, in association with the International Cultural Research Network at the University of Alberta, is planning a conference on "Chinese Perspectives on Culture and Society" to be held on February 24-27, 2005 in Fort Myers, Florida, USA. The social, economic, educational and political in modern China create reverberations that are positively or deleteriously affecting global policies. Wider academic discussion can alleviate some of unanswered questions that these changes have engendered. Sino-scholars and others whose research focuses on China, as well as persons interested in China, teachers, policy makers, NGO's, interested people from Taiwan, and consultants are invited answer this call for papers at this conference. The focus of the program will include the following four categories: (1) Environment; (2) Education; (3) Economics; and (4) Historical Evolution of Chinese Perspectives Abstracts that clearly state one of the conference categories should be 250 words or less and are due on 15 November 2004. A 150 word biography should accompany the abstract submission. Abstracts should be sent via email to [email protected]. Acceptance will be acknowledeged within six weeks of the initial submission. Papers developed for this event will be peer reviewed and considered for publication in a book of the same name to be published by ICRN in early 2006. The conference language is English.
