SUMMARY:EMSI Annual Conference: American Revolution International
LOCATION:The Huntington Ahmanson Classroom\, 1151 Oxford Rd\, San Marino\,
  CA 91108
DESCRIPTION:The USC-Huntington Early Modern Studies Institute will host it
 s Annual Conference on November 6–7\, 2026\, at The Huntington.\n\nThe Am
 erican Revolution was an international event. Its causes\, origins\, cons
 equences\, and trajectory all had roots in places beyond the thirteen col
 onies\, from neighboring Indigenous nations to Asian cities thousands of 
 miles away. Over the last few decades\, there has been increasing scholar
 ly attention to the United States in the world and an enlarged geography 
 for early America. Yet\, beyond works specifically on international diplo
 macy and war\, the American Revolution has been largely resistant to such
  treatment\, remaining sturdily provincial especially in popular understa
 ndings.\n\nThis conference will consider the challenges and advantages of
  making the American Revolution international in ways that move beyond si
 mply European high politics and diplomacy. The Revolution was at the cent
 er of a number of global processes\, from colonialism to Enlightenment. T
 he interplay of these dynamics and the specific American trajectory furni
 shes an excellent avenue of approach to re-invigorate and widen perspecti
 ves on older stories about colonial resistance\, unity\, and war.\n\nThis
  EMSI Annual Conference\, marking the 250th anniversary of the Declaratio
 n of Independence\, will include a range of panels devoted to various asp
 ects of the American Revolution International.\n\nRegister to attend by O
 ctober 30. All EMSI events are free and open to the public.\n\nhttp://nex
