Call for Papers
The aim of the conference is to bring together European, Australian, and New Zealand scholars and to provide a venue for exchanging views, ideas and research findings on Australian and New Zealand cultures and societies. We invite scholars representing multiple disciplines (history, sociology, Indigenous studies, anthropology, cultural studies, literary studies, law, political science, linguistics and other) to share their research and pedagogies; and Australian and New Zealand writers and artists to share their work.
Inspired by the enthusiasm and scholarship of the students of our Faculty’s “Australia and New Zealand” MA Program, we would also like to encourage BA and MA students to submit their proposals as student sessions are planned during the conference.
