ARENA, a new international organization, invites proposals for a
symposium focusing on nationalism and national identity in the Americas.
Our symposium will be open to a wide range of subjects and methodologies
involving all nations of the Americas, but we are especially interested
in comparative, transnational approaches to subjects of particular
relevance to the formation of nations in the Americas:
. The Americas and the trans-Atlantic exchange of ideas and models
. Independence and liberation movements
. Nation-building and state construction: integration,
unification, ethnic autonomy, and secession
. Nationalism and national identity in multi-ethnic immigrant nations
. Nationalism as a plural and contested identity
. The American nations of the New Millennium: plurality, sexual
diversity, multiculturalism, democracy and recognition

Deadline: February 21, 2005 (preliminary round).
Final Deadline: September 15, 2005.
