North America Conference 2010

We were planning a trip for students to a Conference by the German Association for American Studies. The Conference was from 12 to 14 February 2010 in Wittenberg and was titled 'Provincializing the United States: Colonialism, Decolonization and Post-Colonialism’. Further Information on the programme can be found on the organisers’ web page: www.zusas.uni-halle.de/de_schedule.html 

The Students’ Council organised a joint journey and handled the registration with the conference. Parts of the attendance fees were financed by the students' council.

The conference was a good opportunity for the students who participated to get an insight into the field of the American studies in germany.
