Nordisk Midtaustenbulletin
67, juni 2004
Tema:
We remind you all that the deadline for participation in the sixth Nordic
conference from 8th to 10th October this year has passed recently. Late
registrations will be accepted for some time yet, but we cannot guarantee that
those who register after this date will be listed in the programme that is
under preparation now. Late arrivals will also be responsible for their own
accomodation. With those caveats, we wish for as great a participation as
possible from all members of the Society. We have already a hefty number of
participants signed up, so it looks to be interesting.
As you know, the theme of the conference is "Europe and the Middle East
An Entente Cordiale?"We include below the revised version of the information
from the comittee:
