Call for Abstracts
We invite abstracts for a panel on Motherhood and the State to be proposed for inclusion in the 2011 meetings of the Eastern Sociological Society (ESS). We envision a panel that will draw together diverse cases to better understand how identities, ideologies, and practices of motherhood/mothering are mobilized by individuals, organizations, and institutions in negotiations and confrontations with the state.
Please submit a one-paragraph abstract by Wednesday, September 15 to Rachel Kutz-Flamenbaum (rflamenb@pitt.edu) and Amy Traver (ATraver@qcc.cuny.edu).
The Meetings are scheduled for Feb. 24-27 in Philadelphia. Visit www.essnet.org for more information.
Best,
Amy Traver & Rachel Kutz-Flamenbaum
