Subject: [Marxist Section Announce] Association for Humanist Sociology (AHS) 2017 Annual Meeting in Havana, Cuba

Dear fellow ASA-Marxist Section members:

I am writing to call your attention to the 2017 Annual Meeting of the Association for Humanist Sociology (AHS):

The AHS has chosen to hold its 2017 annual conference in Havana, Cuba ~ November 1-5, 2017. To accomplish this, AHS is excited to partner in this exciting adventure with the Faculty of Latin American Social Scientists at the University of Havana. The conference theme calls for us to examine how class, race, gender, and sexuality have been used over the past five centuries to establish and maintain inequalities around the world. Submissions related to the conference theme or more broadly to the AHS mission of equality and social justice should be sent to AHSCuba2017@PROTECTED. For complete information on the conference, visit: www.humanist-sociology.org/cuba2017

For those who will be in Montreal, we will be holding a special session at the nearby SSSP Conference:

Cuba after Fidel: Progress and Challenges


Presider: Rebecca Hensley, Affiliation: Southeastern Louisiana University and 2017 AHS President


Panelists:

Elena Díaz, FLACSO-Cuba/University of Havana

R.A. Dello Buono, Manhattan College

Johnny E. Williams, Trinity College

 

Description:

This panel discusses the cumulative effects of socialist reforms in Cuba over recent years. It features an invited Cuban expert from the University of Havana along with three other sociologists whose work involves Cuba. The focus is on the progress and challenges arising from the substantial reforms in the revolutionary process that have been enacted during the Raul Castro administration. Reflections of the new political context in the post-Obama era will be exchanged. The panel will also feature an update on the upcoming Association for Humanist Sociology (AHS) conference in Havana (November, 2017), the first major US sociological association conference to take place in Cuba since 1959.


All are welcome to attend but if you have a special interest in the subject and are interested in participating as a panelist, please contact me ASAP: ricardo.dellobuono@PROTECTED

Hope to see you in Montreal and/or Havana!    Best, R.A. Dello Buono
