Teaching Amidst Change - CALL FOR PAPERS - deadline 1 July 2013

Conference, 5-6 September 2013, 15 Norham Gardens,

Department of Education, University of Oxford, UK

This two-day conference on teaching and learning anthropology will explore how we employ anthropological approaches, insights and debates within conversations about current events. We invite also ethnographic reflections on the role that 'change' may play within the classroom, the university, in the field and within the discipline.

Are transformations, or 'crises', teachable in anthropology? What are their implications for academic research, teaching and learning across a pan-European anthropological community? What is the role for anthropological teaching and learning in articulating or engaging with 'change'?

Please submit abstracts between 400-500 words by 1 July 2013 to:
