Call for Session and Roundtable Proposals
Deadline: 19 December 2010
European Architectural History Network
Second International Meeting
Brussels, Belgium
31 May – 3 June 2012
The European Architectural History Network (EAHN) is organizing its  second pan-European meeting in Brussels in 2012. In accordance with the  EAHN mission statement, this meeting proposes to increase the  visibility of the discipline of architectural history, to foster  transnational, interdisciplinary and multicultural approaches to the  study of the built environment, and to facilitate the exchange of  research results in the field. The main purpose of the meeting is to  map the general state of research in disciplines related to the built  environment, to promote discussion of current themes and concerns, and  to foster new directions for research in the field.
Though the scope of the meeting is European, members of the larger  scholarly community are invited to submit session proposals related not  only to Europe’s geographical framework, but also to its  transcontinental aspects.  Session proposals are intended to cover  different periods in the history of architecture and different  approaches to the built environment, including landscape and urban  history. Parallel sessions will consist of either five papers or four  papers and a respondent, with time for dialogue and questions at the  end. In addition, a limited number of roundtable debates addressing  burning issues in the field will also take place at the  meeting.   Proposals are sought for roundtable debates that re-map,  re-define, and outline the current discipline. They will typically  consist of a discussion between panel members and encourage debate with  the audience.  The goal is to create a forum in which different  scholars can present and discuss their ideas, research materials and  methodologies.
Scholars wishing to chair a scholarly session or a roundtable debate at  the 2012 EAHN Meeting in Brussels are invited to submit proposals by 19  December 2010 to hilde.heynen@asro.kuleuven.be , Prof. Hilde Heynen,  General Chair of the EAHN Second International Meeting, KU Leuven,  Department of Architecture, Urbanism and Planning, Kasteelpark Arenberg  1, 3001 Leuven, Belgium. Phone: +32 16 321 361.  A conference website  will be online shortly.
By the time of registration for the conference, participating  membership in the EAHN (with an annual membership fee) will be required  to chair or present research at the meeting.  A link on the website  www.eahn.org will soon be available to enable anyone to join the EAHN  as a dues-paying participating member.
Proposals in English of no more than 400 words including a session or  roundtable title should summarize the subject and the premise. Please  include name, professional affiliation (if applicable), address,  telephone and fax numbers, e-mail address, and a current CV. Proposals  and short CVs should be submitted by e-mail, including the text in both  the body of the e-mail and in the attachment.
Session and roundtable proposals will be selected on the basis of merit  and the need to organize a well-balanced program. A few open sessions  or roundtables may be organized by the Advisory Committee, depending on  the response to the following call for papers.
