The Organizing Committee invites scholars to participate in the 54 ICA to be held in Vienna, Austria, in July 2012.
With the aim to promote an exchange and a sharing of insights, questions, methods, and viewpoints in order to foster dynamic dialogues, we have chosen as our general theme BUILDING DIALOGUES IN THE AMERICAS. We wish to promote self-reflection and encourage trans-disciplinary dialogues. We invite proposals for papers that seek to draw conjunctions between disciplines, subfields, theories and methods.
