Join the Agricultural History Society for its 2012 Annual Conference in Manhattan, Kansas from June 6-9, 2012.
Agriculture and the State: The Politics of Farming and Rural Life across Space and Time
Deadline for submissions is October 1, 2011
In view of the 150th anniversary of the Morrill Land Grant, the 2012 conference of the Agricultural History Society is not only taking place at one of the major U.S. land-grant schools (Kansas State University), but seeks to highlight the State's role in agriculture and the development of rural life. We welcome topics such as agricultural education, research, and technology; the development of agrarian ideals and improved farming; and land usage in rural settings in the United States and other countries. We invite panel sessions or individual papers from any of these areas, especially as they may apply to the role of the State and notions of progress and improvement in the construction of a better rural society and landscape.
Submit all proposals to: Sterling Evans, Program Committee Chair, Department of History, University of Oklahoma (evans@ou.edu).
Deadline for submissions October 1, 2011.
