ECCS 2014 - The Inaugural European Conference on Cultural Studies
| ECCS 2014 - The Inaugural European Conference on Cultural Studies 24th to 27th July 2014 Brighton, United Kingdom Abstract Submission Deadline Extended: June 1, 2014 2014 Conference Theme: Borderlands of Becoming, Belonging and Sharing Enquiries: [email protected] Web address: http://iafor.org/iafor/conferences/eccs2014/ Sponsored by: IAFOR - The International Academic Forum The International Academic Forum in conjunction with its global university partners is proud to announce the Inaugural European Conference on Cultural Studies, to be held from July 24-27, 2014, at the Thistle Hotel Brighton, in the United Kingdom. Join us in Brighton this July for our European Conferences Hear the latest research, publish before a global audience, present in a supportive environment, network, engage in new relationships, experience the UK, explore Brighton, London and the South-East of England, join a global academic community... 2014 Conference Theme: Borderlands of Becoming, Belonging and Sharing Local, national and global cultures have been transformed by an intensification of human migration, mobility and multi-culture with multiple and complex claims of home, identity and belonging. Gloria Anzaldua's idea of the borderland has become a critical conceptual rubric used by cultural researchers as a way of understanding, explaining and articulating the in-determined, vague, ambiguous nature of everyday life and the cultural politics of border-knowledge, border crossings, transgression, living in-between and multiple belongings. Borderlands is also about a social space where people of diverse backgrounds and identities meet and share a space in which the politics of co-presence and co-existence are experienced and enacted in mundane ways. This conference, which focuses on the borderlands of becoming, belonging and sharing, is therefore about examining how the culture of everyday life is regulated and contested across diverse political, economic and social contexts, and whether and how it creates spaces of belonging with others. The aim of this conference theme is to open up discussion, critical reflection and analysis about emerging social, political and cultural identities that are formed at the intersection of multiple and multi-sited belongings and their expression and about the possibility of making them shared across differences. We welcome papers that focus on (but not limited to): Trans-cultural displacement/belonging Belonging and the intersections of gender, race, religion, sexuality Seeking refuge, unruly belonging(s) and border politics Trauma and joy of becoming and belonging Communication, new technologies and belonging Cultural narratives of belonging/not belonging Cultural politics of survival/transgression New imaginings/formations of home Citizenship beyond borders Multicultural exhaustion/renewal Belonging in the Anthropocene Multiple and complex belongings Re-locating culture across borders Convivial cultures and the imagined communities Creation of shared space(s) of multiple belongings We hope that the 2014 conference theme will encourage academic and personal encounters and exchanges across national, religious, cultural and disciplinary divides. We look forward to seeing you in cosmopolitan, diverse and fun Brighton, the perfect European home for IAFOR's latest Cultural Studies event!
