CFP: Colonial/Postcolonial New Researchers’ Workshop 2019/20

Colonial/Postcolonial New Researchers’ Workshop 2019/20

The Colonial/Postcolonial New Researchers’ Workshop is currently inviting abstract submissions for the 2019/20 academic year. The workshop was established in 2008, to provide a forum for postgraduates and new researchers to meet and present their work in an informal environment. Seminars run on a bi-weekly basis at the Institute of Historical Research (IHR), intercalated with Imperial and World History (http://www.history.ac.uk/events/seminar/imperial-world-history-colonial-postcolonial-new-researchers-workshop).

We invite proposals for papers or panels on any aspect of colonial or postcolonial history from any region of the world. We particularly welcome proposals that address specific methodological, interdisciplinary or theoretical concerns. Seminars take place on Monday evenings on a fortnightly basis.

Anyone interested in presenting their work, whether finished pieces or works in progress, is encouraged to submit a title and abstract of between 250-350 words to cpnewresearchers@gmail.com. Abstracts should be submitted by no later than 31st July 2019. Decisions will be made in mid-August.
