Americas Initiative Conferences

Each academic year, the Americas Initiative (AI) sponsors at least one conference on a transnational, cross-disciplinary theme.  Past conferences have been on "Mexico and Mexicans in the Making of the United States" and "Redefining America:  Race, Migration and the Politics of Inclusion".  In addition, AI co-sponsored "The Spanish Roots of Modern Liberalism:  A Celebration of the Bicentennial of May 2nd, 1808" with Georgetown's Center for Eurasian, Russian, and East European Studies (CERES).
