Join us for the first ever virtual Arizona History Convention! 

“This is our sixty-second year, and while this year has definitely been a challenge we are pleased to be able to hold our annual Arizona History Convention virtually. Our theme this year is an adaptation of last year’s theme―“Advocating for Change”―which was meant to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the Nineteenth Amendment and national woman suffrage. Twenty-twenty was certainly a year in which many Americans both advocated for change and navigated crises. With our new theme, we encouraged presenters to consider historical actors who advocated for change and navigated crises in the past. The Arizona History Convention has itself had to navigate the continuing public health crisis that began early last year.”

January 6-9, 2021

Join us for the first virtual Society for Historical Archaeology conference!

The theme this year is “An Archaeological Decameron: Research, Interpretation, and Engagement in the Time of Pandemic”.

In the middle of the 14th century, as Europe was in the grip of bubonic plague, the Italian author Giovanni Boccaccio (1313–1375) wrote his masterpiece, The Decameron. The book is framed as a collection of stories told by a group of 10 young people who had fled Florence to escape the Black Death. Socially distanced in a villa outside the city, they told each other tales to pass the time and to provide a distraction from the pandemic. In 2020, as a different pandemic circled the globe, the Board of the Society for Historical Archaeology, with the health and safety of its members, staff, and the archaeological community in mind, made the difficult decision to alter the form of the 2021 annual conference, planned for Lisbon, Portugal. Rather than cancel altogether, an untenable and agonizing thought, the Board decided to take the SHA conference virtual.

Join us for the second virtual Latin American Studies Association congress!

The global crisis highlighted by the expansion of COVID-19 over the entire planet has had dramatic consequences in Latin America, testing states’ capacity to protect their citizens. The effects of the disease have laid bare the structural shortcomings of the countries in the region and the persistence of inequality, exclusion, and authoritarianism.

The purpose of the 2021 LASA congress is to convene people who study the societies and cultures of Latin American and the Caribbean to reflect on globalization and its impacts on the lives of its inhabitants, the institutional architecture of its states, and the cultural dynamics on the continent. The management of the crisis, and the consequences for the most vulnerable, demonstrate the need to reflect on the causes of that vulnerability in both historical and contemporary terms.

The University of Arizona Press will be featured as a virtual exhibitor, so please be sure to visit our virtual booth to browse our recent Latin American Studies titles and find a great discount code.

Join us in Toronto, ON, for the annual NAISA conference!

The Native American and Indigenous Studies Association invites people to the 2020 meeting in Tkaronto, a place that is both lands and waters. While in Tkaronto, you might pause just before arriving to reflect on the longstanding Haudenosaunee practice of the ceremony at the edge of the woods, or you might travel from the edge of the lake uphill on the path called Ishpaadina— a word used by Anishinaabe people to refer to its position as the high place— and feel yourself become a larger part of the choreography of remembering what the street called Spadina means to Indigenous peoples.

The 2020 NAISA conference will be hosted by the University of Toronto. We would love to see you there!
