CONFERENCE

  A conference on "Women in the Global Economy:  Making Connections
will be held on April 22-24 at the University at Albany State University
of New York, sponsored by the Institute for Research on Women.
  The conference will bring together scholars and labor activists
to explore the experiences of working-class women across national
boundaries.  Drawing on both historical and contemporary case studies
(particularly from the garment and textile industries) participants
will seek to formulate new sources of working women's empowerment
under current global economic conditions.  Presentations will focus
on Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean, the Middle East and
the United States.  For registration forms or additional information,
please contact Conference Coordinator, History Department,
Ten Broeck 105, University at Albany, 1400 Washington Ave.,
Albany, NY 12222, or call (518) 442-4815/4800.


CALL FOR SYLLABI ON INTERNATIONAL/COMPARATIVE PERSPECTIVES ON WOMEN

One of the workshops at the conference on "Women in the
Global Economy:  Making Connections" will address the topic
of integrating international perspectives into courses on women.
Although the workshop will focus particularly on women and work,
we plan to publish a collection of syllabi from international/comparative
women's studies courses that address all aspects of women's lives.
If either you or any of your colleagues teaches a global women's studies
course, I hope that the syllabus will be submitted so it can be
considered for inclusion in this collection of materials.
If you have any questions about this project, please contact
Iris Berger at (518) 442-4815/4800.  Copies of course outlines
should be sent to me as soon as possible at:  History Department,
Ten Broeck 105, University at Albany, 1400 Washington Ave.,
Albany, NY 12222.
