We are seeking proposals for the eleventh annual New Frontiers in
Graduate History Conference. We encourage papers from a wide range of
national, regional, thematic, and methodological backgrounds. New
Frontiers is an excellent opportunity for both MA and PhD students, in
history and in related fields, to present papers to colleagues from
across Canada and the United States. As is always the case, we will be
accepting papers on any geographic location and on a wide range of
themes and topics including:

    * History and Theory
    * Public Memory and Commemoration
    * Law, Politics, Protest and the State
    * Science, Technology and Society
    * Religion
    * Race, Ethnicity and Identity
    * Gender, Sexuality and the Body
    * Empire and Nation
    * Popular Culture and Consumerism
    * The City and the Environment
    * Migration and Diaspora
    * Work, Class, and Community

Presenters will be organized into panels of either 2 or 3 papers, with
each paper being allocated 20 minutes. Applicants are invited to submit
250 word proposals for individual papers or panels of either two or
three papers. Submissions must be accompanied by a short biographical
statement and email contact information.

The Speakers at the conference include:

Edward Jones-Imhotep, York University, who specializes in technology and
the Canadian North
