We are pleased to announce that the 9th International Conference 
Crossroads in Cultural Studies will be held in Paris, France, from July 
2nd to 6th, 2012, hosted by Sorbonne Nouvelle University.


The conference will also be hosted by UNESCO, the international 
organization that has always championed cultural diversity and 
difference. Given the long association between Cultural Studies research 
and UNESCO, this conference should be an occasion for Cultural Studies 
to look back on its own evolution as well as explore new scholarly insights.
