March 22-24 Boston, MA	Council for European Studies’ 19th International Conference of Europeanists (CES)
Founded in 1970, CES produces and supports outstanding, multi-disciplinary research in European Studies and how lessons from European history and integration can be applied to contemporary issues of global security, prosperity and democracy. This year’s conference will explore the political, legal, geographic, economic, social, cultural, intellectual and identitarian diversities within Europe.

March 22-26 Pittsburgh, PA	68th Annual Meeting of the Philosophy of Education Society (PES): “Education, the Arts and Social Change”
The exciting annual PES conference explores education as a societal institution—and more broadly as the process of existential growth. This year’s conference theme will discuss the impact of aesthetic education on social change, the role of artists and writers as social critics, the value of the arts in education, and controversies over the use of artistic and literary works in schools. We plan to exhibit books and journals on education from a sociological, anthropological, psychological or religious perspective.

This lively conference will explore how race and ethnicity are characterized in popular media, education and politics. We will be exhibiting titles on: racialized legislation; racism, gender and sexuality; Obama nation; profiling; affirmative action; hate groups, race and sports; medicine, public health and social welfare policy; and post-racial ideology.
