CFP: Religion and Politics in 20th-century America

"Beyond the Culture Wars: Recasting Religion and Politics in 20th-century America"

March 27-29, 2014
Washington University in St. Louis


The John C. Danforth Center on Religion and Politics invites conference paper proposals from Ph.D. students working on the history of twentieth-century U.S. religion, politics, and society. "Beyond the Culture Wars: Recasting Religion and Politics in 20th-century America" will take place March 27-29, 2014, on the campus of Washington University in St. Louis. Senior and junior scholars will present papers that address the conference's two main aims: (1) to take stock of recent advances and points of exchange in the historical study of U.S. religion and politics; (2) to introduce fresh, integrated scholarship that maps out new directions in this burgeoning field. Ph.D. students are invited to submit a short C.V. (2 pages maximum) and precis (1 page maximum) of their proposed paper, which should be drawn from original research. Applicants chosen to participate in the conference will be awarded a $500.00 travel stipend.

Please email application materials (C.V. and precis) as one attachment to rap@wustl.edu by August 15, 2013. Successful applicants will be notified by September 15, 2013. Please direct any questions or concerns to Darren Dochuk at ddochuk@wustl.edu.
