Please send abstracts of a maximum of 500 words and a short biographical note to mobilities.afro.carib@gmail.com by 10 March 2019. The selection of abstracts will be completed by 15 March 2019 and the selected contributors will be asked to send in draft chapters by 1 September 2019. An authors’ workshop will be held in late September/early October 2019 (exact date to be announced) at the University of Vienna, Austria. All participants are expected to read all draft chapters and to take part in feedback sessions which aim to make sure that the chapters contribute to the common thread running through the volume. We can assist a limited number of participants with travel costs and accommodation when required. Please mention in your abstract whether you might need financial support for the workshop and from where you will be travelling.
We are very much looking forward to receiving your abstracts!
Birgit Englert, Immanuel R. Harisch, and Sigrid Thomsen
