From: Peter Rollins, Program Chair for
Puebla meeting of PCA/ACA
www.udlap.mx/congress
Dear Popular Culture Enthusiasts.
The Mexico meeting of PCA/ACA will take
place in Puebla, Mexico next fall, October
18-21, 2001. We are really excited about
the event--which includes tours, parties,
banquets, musical moments along with the
usual papers and presentations.
I now have a full panoply of Area Chairs
for the meeting, but I may have left a gap
or two.....Here is what we are looking for
right now...
Area Chairs lacking for....
Fidel Castro: Early and Late Images and
Realities
Socialist Realism as an Artistic Style in
Latin America
Education in the US, Canada, and Latin
America
Some of you may have great ideas for
other topics. Let me know.....Here is a
list of the current Areas for which we
DO have Area Chairs:
Globalization of Culture
Tourism and Travel Culture
Gender and Gender Roles
Food and Culture
Great Leaders in Film and Fiction
Technical Communications
Comics and Fotonovelas
Drug Wars
Ethnicity and Race
Chicano Culture
Mexico--History and Culture

20th Century Mexico
Mexican Images of the US
US Images of Mexico
The Arts
Art and Architecture
Literature
Superrealism and the Latin Imagination:

the Present
Literature to Film: The Art of Adaptation
Latin American and Cuban Films and Filmmakers
Video Poetry
Music
Music
Dance and Culture

If I left out a vital topic and you are interested and
qualified to act as an Area Chair, please contact me.

Basic information on the Mexico Conference will accumulate at the web site:
http://www.udlap.mx/congress
Click on "Popular Culture/American Culture" track (upper left) and
then, once on the next page, click on "Subject Area" box for
the spectrum of Areas and details about Area Chairs.
Please check the above source on a regular basis. There are programs
there for past conferences--a resource which newcomers might like
to check for the flavor of the meetings. We take the Walt Whitman
approach to cultural studies and contain multitudes.
Absolute deadline for proposals to Area Chairs is 1 June, 2001, but
early proposals find the most compatible panels.
Best way to Puebla....Fly Delta Airlines from Dallas to Puebla Airport
or fly Continental Airlines from Houston to Puebla Airport. It is that
easy! Cab ride should cost no more that 170 pesos or $15.
Best places to stay in Puebla....See web site for hotel details.
Area Chairs are in charge of panels and will submit them to the Program Chair.
Participants are required to register and to pay the registration upon
acceptance
of their proposal. (This requirement is for the good of all.) Fill in
the on-line
registration form and mail check to Peter Rollins (address, above). To
repeat:
on-line and fiscal registrations must be completed UPON ACCEPTANCE OF
YOUR PROPOSAL and not later. This rule helps everybody in planning for
a successful meeting.
Historical tours are always part of the mix....Keep track via the web site.
