This is a reminder that the deadline for submission of paper and panel proposals to the Atlanta conference is coming up - June 1st! Please submit your proposals online at isanet.org soon. The theme of the conference is: Exploring Peace. For more see: http://www.isanet.org/Conferences/Atlanta-2016/Call.
The theme fits in very nicely with the caucus' consistent focus on security, foreign policy, regional and development issues affecting the south, so we look forward to receiving a variety of interesting proposals.
We've been giving you a little break from the bombardment of emails but will soon provide you with the results of the recent election of officers and also ask you to nominate a distinguished scholar honoree, among other things. In addition we have not stopped working! We are currently trying to assess potential hosts for workshops and for our next conference which we know everyone is eagerly looking forward to! For now, we all need to focus on having good representation at ISA-Atlanta.
Thank you for your consistent support,
jbw

promote and encourage the development of International Relations (IR), with a
particular scope in the dynamics and challenges experienced within and around
the Global South. Submissions that contribute to an understanding of the plurality
of perspectives present in the field of IR and that advance our understanding

Internacional is one of the leading journals in international relations within
Brazil. Submissions in English, French, Portuguese and Spanish are accepted.

in a decision to publish, it is the responsibility of the author alone to
translate the article into English. All contributions are submitted to double

a special issue includes 5-7 research articles speaking to a common theme / set
