[MCP] Conference on Diversity in Organisations, Communities and Nations, Amsterdam, July 2007 - Call

[Paul C. Gorski]

THE SEVENTH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON DIVERSITY IN ORGANISATIONS,
COMMUNITIES AND NATIONS
Amsterdam, The Netherlands, 3-6 July 2007
http://www.Diversity ( http://www.diversity/ )-Conference.com

The conference brings together scholarly, government and
practice-based participants with an interest in the issues of
diversity and community. It examines the concept of diversity as a
positive aspect of a global world and globalised society. Diversity is
in many ways reflective of our present world order, and there are ways
of taking this further without necessary engendering its alternatives:
racism, conflict, discrimination and inequity.

The conference will explore the full range of what diversity means
and explore modes of diversity in real-life situations of living
together in community. It supports a move away from simple
affirmations that 'diversity is good' to a much more nuanced account
of the effects and uses of diversity on differently situated
communities in the context of our current epoch of globalisation.

As well as an impressive line up of international main speakers, the
conference will also include numerous paper, workshop and colloquium
presentations. We would particularly like to invite you to respond to
the conference call for papers. Presenters may choose to submit
written papers for consideration before or after the conference in the
fully refereed International Journal of Diversity in Organisations,
Communities and Nations. If you are unable to attend the conference in
person, virtual registrations are also available which allow you to
submit a paper for refereeing and possible publication in the journal,
and give you access to the online version of the journal.

The deadline for the next round in the call for papers (a title and
short abstract) is 31 January 2007. Proposals are reviewed within one
week of submission.

Full details of the conference, including an online call for papers
form, are to be found at the conference website - http://www.Diversity

We look forward to receiving your proposals and hope you will be able
to join us in Amsterdam in July 2007.

Yours Sincerely,

Fiza Ahmed
