INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CANADIAN STUDIES
Call for Papers for its upcoming Issue Number 26 (Fall 2002) "Performing Canada"
Performance implies the enactment of representation in its multiple dimension. The IJCS invites submissions for this thematic issue, where we seek to explore how Canada is constructed and "performed" for Canadians themselves and for the world. Possible topic areas include diplomacy, peacekeeping, and international relations; the visual and performing arts, including theatre, dance, cinema, and other new media; literature and other printed media; sports, expositions, fairs and festivals; performative identities in relation to gender, sexuality or nationality; translation and the semiotics of representation. As well, 2002 marks the 20th anniversary of the repatriation of the Canadian Constitution and the 10th anniversary of the overwhelming rejection of the Charlottetown Accords. To what extent might these events be regarded as successful or failed performatives of a newly-defined Canadian polity? The IJCS will also welcome submissions related to other aspects of the theme of Canada on the international stage. Please forward paper (and an abstract of 100 words max.) before April 1, 2002 to: IJCS, 75 Albert, S-908, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada K1P 5E7. Tel.: (613) 789-7834; fax: (613) 789-7830; e-mail: gleclair at iccs-ciec.ca.

'If we rule the world together then we can succeed in peace and let each other be different and have different opinions and different cultures. If there was no diversity then life would be boring. Imagine me looking exactly like you or acting the same way! LIFE NEEDS difference and until we realise it then we will not achieve our hope of world peace!"-Natasha Salter, written on the occasion of her 11th birthday (20 November 01).
