Russia's Role in Human Mobility: Historical and Contemporary Perspectives

Professor John Randolph (Department of History, UIUC) and Professor Eugene M. Avrutin (Department of History, UIUC), Co-Organizers
The Russian, East European, and Eurasian Center of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign invites paper proposals for an international conference, Russia's Role in Human Mobility: Historical and Contemporary Perspectives, to be held June 18-20, 2009. The conference will have a workshop format, and feature discussion of pre-circulated papers.
Pending approval by donors, we hope to be able to provide travel expenses, room, and board for our panelists, including at least six participants from Russia and/or the Former Soviet Union. We also hope to edit these papers for publication in a conference volume. Please see our conference website https://netfiles.uiuc.edu/jwr/www/mobility2009/index.html
Interested parties should submit paper proposals addressing one or more of our conference themes no later than June 2, 2008. Please include a brief (500 word) summary of the proposed work, as well as a cv or resume describing your experience and research interests. These documents should be submitted by e-mail to the project's co-organizer, Professor John Randolph, at jwr@uiuc.edu. (A surface mail address is appended below for those who wish to use it). We welcome your questions at this address as well.
