Dear Colleagues,
Please find below the call for papers for our panel “Concepts on the move”
to be held in the next IUAES Conference (
http://www.inscricoes.iuaes2018.org/trabalho/view?ID_TRABALHO=201).
Deadline is 25 March 2018.
The transnational networks that characterize diasporic communities foster
the transit, re-appropriation and re-signification in diasporic contexts of
discourses and practices that at the same time link and differentiate
diasporic locations and "ancestral homes". By way of example, we could cite
the adaptation and transformation by diaspora communities of: indigenous
economic associations; religious practices and values, including radical
new readings of religious texts and performance of rituals; or yet the
circulation and reshaping of notions that inform the political commitment,
and its critiques, such as the idea of nationalism and belonging to the
nation amongst such communities.
What is more, an extensive literature has shed new light on inverse
processes, i.e. the powerful and creative reverberations of such diasporic
reformulations back on their so-called homelands. In this sense, more than
ever, diasporas and homelands emerge as mutually constituted locations
requesting dynamic analytical frameworks and heuristic tools.
We seek for papers exploring the question of circulation and conversion of
such ideas and practices among diasporas, ranging from economic to
political spheres, also comprising religious, ritual, and educational to
cite but a few possible forms of social existence that circulate and change
in a context of global movements and connections.
We look forward receiving your abstracts!
