Thus, there is an abundance of possibilities of investigation regarding its ever-growing diversity manifested in commercial exchanges, military campaigns, colonial experiences, travel tours and pilgrimage, art transmissions and adaptations, and environmental initiatives.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interdisciplinary approaches from humanities, social sciences, media studies and other fields of research are pivotal. Any historical period of reference is welcome, though we would strongly encourage presenters to look at the region\u2019s current complexities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This third Mediterranean Studies symposium will be held in picturesque Dubrovnik, Croatia, at the Centre for Mediterranean Studies (CMS), which was founded by the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.caas.unizg.hr\/about-dubrovnik.html\">University of Zagreb.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Official language will be English (even though each session\u2019s Q\/A may be conducted in the language most comfortable for all parties involved).&nbsp;Since the organizers would like to create an informal and conducive atmosphere of dialogue and brainstorming, the number of proposals accepted is restricted.
