In addition to the sessions organized by the Political Economy of the
World System section at the upcoming ASA meeting in San Francisco, please
also be aware of two "regular" sessions on world system research that will
take place Tuesday, August 25. One is at 10:30 (Session 489), and the
other at 12:30. The first has a paper by Boswell and Chase-Dunn on World
Revolutions and three papers on the (changing) significance of foreign
investments (by Linda Beer, Brad Christerson, and E. Susan Manning). The
second session includes two papers on IGOs (by Shawn McEntee and Yong Suk
Jang and Xiaowei Rose Luo), a paper on racial ideology in the world-system
(Bonilla-Silva, Hovesepian, and Foreman), and a paper on women-centered
global labor movements (Dickenson). Hope to see you there.
The second session is Session 505.
