The Newberry Library Seminar on Labor History

Co-sponsored by the History Department at the University of Illinois at =
Chicago, Northern Illinois University, and the Labor and Working Class =
History Association

CALL FOR PAPERS for the 2005-06 academic year

Deadline for Submission: *1 June 2005*

This seminar provides a forum for "works-in-progress" that explore the =
history of working class people, communities, and culture; unions and =
popular political movements; and other related topics. We are =
particularly interested in works that deal with gender, sexuality, race, =
migration, and the social history of work. Our focus has been on U.S. =
history, however, we welcome papers on North America generally, and on =
transnational aspects of labor history.

The seminar takes place on one Friday every month, from 3:00-5:00 p.m. =
at the Newberry Library in Chicago. It is open to graduate students, =
independent scholars, and faculty. Papers are circulated electronically =
in advance. Priority is given to individuals who are at a stage of their =
research at which they can best profit from discussion.

To apply, please send a one-page proposal, a brief c.v., and a statement =
on the relationship of the proposed paper to your other work.=20
