Recent Calls
Call for Presenter (NACBS 2021 Conference)
Tentatively titled, “Transnational Actors in a Gendered Anglo-World,” our panel seeks to elucidate women’s activism in the transnational space of the Anglo-World. Drawing from James Belich’s identification of an “Anglo-World” created by British settler-colonialism, presenters will explore how women acted as transnational arbiters of causes as diverse as nineteenth-century evangelism through preaching, and colonial women’s espousal of national identities through international feminism during the interwar.
