CALL FOR PAPERS The British Association for Chinese Studies (BACS) will hold its annual conference at the University of Bristol, 8-9 September 2010, at which Professor Jonathan Spence has agreed to be a keynote speaker. We welcome panel and paper proposals in any field of Chinese Studies. We are especially keen to attract panel proposals that bring a group of scholars together to discuss a major issue in the study of China. BACS conferences are open to both members and non-members, and we welcome participants from all countries. Abstracts from past conferences can be seen on the Association’s website (
http://www.bacsuk.org.uk) under BACS Conferences.

Proposals for panels should include: list of proposed presenters; list of titles of individual papers; abstracts of each paper (up to 250 words); proposed chair/moderator; discussant, if relevant.
