Thomas Teo Theme: In the history of social thought, it is difficult to find a more divisive figure than Karl Marx. For many, the mere mention of his name conjures up images of totalitarian regimes dominating nearly every aspect of an individual’s existence. Yet for others, Marx’s critique of the capitalist mode of production draws attention to the fact that our beliefs, thoughts, and desires inevitably emerge against the background of specific cultural, historical, and social practices.

| SEPTEMBER |
1. Iris Murdoch International Conference Organizers: Dr Anne Rowe and Dr Sara Upstone Keynotes/Speakers: Professor Robert Eaglestone, Peter J Conradi, David Morgan Theme: 5th international Iris Murdoch conference. This year's theme is 'Murdoch on the Margins'. Suggested Topics: We are interested in how Murdoch’s literature and/or philosophy engages with what it means to live on the margins in terms of issues such as – but not limited to – sexuality, gender, race, class, national identity and religion. We would also encourage papers that consider Murdoch’s place in the English canon: how she has been conceived as a ‘marginal’ writer; how interest in her work has been renewed by changes in critical thinking, philosophy, and literary studies; how considering her work alongside that of other authors allows us to reappraise her contemporary significance and, finally, how she herself took the status as an outsider or critic in order to further her philosophical interests and/or define her literary position.

The Question of Rights Organizers: Chris Waldrep, Barbara Loomis, James Martel, Eva Sheppard Wolf, Paul Longmore, John Logan, Jillian Sandell, Julietta Hua Keynotes/Speakers: Theme: San Francisco State University will host a conference September 16-17, 2010 exploring the question and place of rights in history, politics, and society.Rights, both individual and collective, have long been a theme in American society, often seen in conflict with state power. Our goal is to bring together a wide variety of people from a range of academic, activist, legal, and community spaces to examine the place of rights within the context of American society (as situated within a boarder global political community). To that end, we welcome participation from historians, both senior and junior scholars, graduate students, community advocates, archivists, and lawyers. We invite proposals for individual papers, panels, or roundtables. Suggested Topics: We welcome papers on assertions of rights by insurgent groups, resistance to rights claims, and governmental efforts to suppress or promote rights, in areas including but not limited to: civil liberties; disability rights; labor and economic rights; feminism and antiracism; immigration; environmental justice; access to
