She also published a chapter titled "A Flexible Foundation: Constructing a Postcolonial Dialogue" in the book on Postcolonial Theory, Relocation Postcolonial. The book was published by Blackwell in 2002. In the summer of 2003, she also delivered a paper, "Compassionate Contact: When Irish Playwrights Reach Out for Others," in Debrecen, Hungary, at the International Association for the Study of Irish Literature and served as the U.S. representative to the Executive Council. At that annual conference, participants elected Duncan secretary of the international organization for a three-year term.
