Seen on Classicists (please send any responses to the folks mentioned in the quoted text, not to rogueclassicism!):
This fall, the 35th Annual Meeting of the American Social Science and
History Association will take place from 18-21 November in Chicago. This
year’s theme is "Power and Politics".The Annual Meeting of the Social Science and History Association is the
American counterpart of the two-yearly European Social Science and History
Conference, and is organized by an interdisciplinary group of scholars
that shares interests in social life and theory; historiography, and
historical and social-scientific methodologies.This year, the "Family Demography" network of the SSHA aims to organize a
session entitled "Demography and Power Dynamics in the Ancient
Mediterranean (ca. 500 BCE – 500 CE)". As the organizer of this session, I
would like to give you an informal notice that paper proposals are now
being accepted, and that you are kindly invited to submit a title and
abstract for review. The submission deadline is February 15, 2010. Please
see the SSHA website at http://www.ssha.org/annual-conference for further
information.
