In conjunction with the 24th Annual Eugene Scassa Mock Organization of American States Conference and Competition, the ESMOAS Faculty Steering Committee is now accepting papers for our 5th annual academic conference, to be held at St. Mary’s University, in San Antonio, Texas, on November 19-21, 2020. The conference is open to presenters at the undergraduate, graduate, and faculty level. This year’s theme is "The Scope of the Americas in History, Culture, and Politics," and is open to all papers on history, politics, economics, and culture focusing on the Western Hemisphere and/or its relationship with the rest of the world.
Please submit your abstract or formal proposal by September 13, 2020. Abstracts should be no more than one page in length (250 words). After approval of your abstract, your full paper (of no more than 25 pages) must be submitted by October 11, 2020 to moascentral@gmail.com. After that time, you will be assigned a panel and a presentation time. Publication of papers is currently being negotiated—Papers from the past four conferences have been published yearly through Cambridge Scholars Press, with Spanish language papers also pending publication through Vernon Press, Barcelona. Though publication of your work is not guaranteed, it is likely.
