13th International DAVO Congress on Contemporary Research in the Middle East, Hamburg, 30 November – 2 December 2006

The German Middle East Studies Association for Contemporary Research and Documentation (DAVO) is calling for papers for its 13th Annual Congress in Hamburg (http://davo.uni-mainz.de).

We welcome papers on all fields of contemporary Middle East studies and the impact of this region on the development of other parts of the world. Middle East studies are understood to include disciplines relevant to the study of an area comprising all members of the League of Arab States, Afghanistan, Iran, Pakistan, Turkey, Israel and the Muslim states of the former USSR.

Proposals for pre-organised panels and workshops on a common theme with at least three papers presented and chair are welcome. Individual paper submissions will be grouped into panels. Although most of the papers will be held in German, English papers and discussions are strongly encouraged. Generally, 20 minutes will be allowed for each presentation and 10 minutes for discussion.

A book exhibition is planned during the congress. Institutes, publishing companies and book shops are invited to present(free of charge) publications concerned with the Middle East, and to sell copies of these publications through their own employees.

Single publications of scholars and publishing companies can be presented, free of charge, in a common exhibition. Please send copies for the exhibition – with brochures and order forms – to the Congress Organizers before 15 November 2006. Completed order forms will be collected and sent back to the publisher. At the end of the conference the copies of the common exhibitionwill be taken over by the library of the German Orient-Institute which is responsible for the organisation of the book exhibition.
