CALL FOR PAPERS

ICI'06
The Second International Conference on Islam

"Dialogue vs. Conflict: Islam in a Globalized World"

March 24-25, 2006
Madison, Wisconsin, USA
http://2006.islamconf.org

Abstract submission deadline: January 20, 2006

The Second International Conference on Islam will be held at the =
University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA, on March 24-25, 2006. The =
objective of the conference is to create an environment for the =
discussion of various aspects of Islam in an academic setting and in a =
non-speculative way. The conference will serve the purpose of bringing =
together academics, scholars and researchers interested in different =
aspects of Islam, and will provide an opportunity to share new findings, =
approaches and research on Islam. Selected papers from the conference =
will be published as a book.

Theme: Increasing connections and interdependencies among institutions =
and peoples around the world direct our attention to globalization as a =
central phenomenon of the contemporary era. From economy to culture to =
environment, the great issues of our time require close attention to the =
dynamic interactions among actors and stakeholders around the world. It =
is commonly observed that all societies are now part of a global system =
that is stitched together by far-reaching trade protocols, governance =
covenants, and communication networks. Although this process of =
integration engenders dramatic new opportunities for cooperation and =
development, it is also characterized by profound inequities that breed =
dramatic new tensions and conflicts. Globalization is furthermore =
characterized by challenges to previous loyalties and affinities, as =
questions of belonging and citizenship assume new meanings in an era of =
accelerating flows of people, goods, and capital across borders and =
boundaries that were previously inviolable. In keeping with this =
perspective, the theme of this year?s conference will be ?Dialogue vs. =
Conflict: Islam in a Globalized World?.

* Islam and Globalization
