Rescheduled conference to explore
ethnic cleansing in America and Europe

A conference on ethnic cleansing, which ,was originally scheduled to take place in September, has been rescheduled for Friday and Saturday, Nov. 30 and Dec. 1.

Titled "Ethnic Cleansing on the Frontiers of Europe and America," the event is sponsored by the Howard R. Lamar Center for the Study of Frontiers and Borders. Conference sessions will be held in Linsly-Chittenden Hall (LC), 63 High St.

All the original participants will return for this event.

The conference will open on Friday at 5:15 p.m. in Rm. 102 LC with presentations by Norman M. Naimark of Stanford University and John Mack Faragher of Yale, who will offer their perspectives on the origins and manifestations of ethnic cleansing in modern European and American history.

These talks will be followed by a reception at the Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library, 121 Wall St.

At Saturday's session, which begins at 10 a.m. in Rm. 101 LC, a panel of historians will respond to the Naimark and Faragher perspectives, broadening their discussion to include frontiers in Southeast Asia, Latin America, Australia and New Zealand. Panelists will include Carl Brasseaux of the University of Southwestern Louisiana, Robert V. Remini of the University of Illinois at Chicago and Yale scholars Paul Kennedy, Benjamin Kiernan, Jeremy Mumford, Timothy Snyder and Jennifer Baszile, who will serve as moderator.

No registration is required, and all events are free and open to the public. For more information about the symposium, send e-mail to Jay Gitlin, director of the Lamar Center, at jay.gitlin@yale.edu.
