CFP: METU Conference on International Relations

Middle East Technical University (METU) Department of International Relations calls for proposals for pre-organised panels, roundtables and individual papers for its tenth METU Conference on International Relations to be held between June 15-17, 2011 in Ankara, Turkey. In 2011, the METU Conference on International Relations, the oldest annual conference in Turkey on international relations, is going to mark its 10th year. The Conference takes pride in bringing together scholars from all around the world to exchange views in approximately 50 panels and roundtables. In order to continue this tradition with a new vigour, Rethinking International Relations: Theory and Practice has been chosen as the theme of this year’s Conference. The Conference invites scholars and practitioners of IR to critically assess traditional concepts of the discipline such as power, identity, norms, legitimacy, multilateralism, multipolarity, and nation-building. Proposals should be received by May 30, 2011. Please see the conference website for more information.
