*'By definition [the Anthropocene] precedes all cultural, political and
economic differences. *

*It indicates a shared destiny, an ethical challenge which defines our
situation*

*and sets the stage for political action'*

(Horn & Bergthaller, 2020).



A century after the foundation of the discipline, scholars of International
Relations are only now awakening to the ramifications of global climate
change and the sixth mass extinction. Unlike Geography, which rallied
around the so-called Anthropocene as a unifying field of interrogation, IR
has tended to keep planetary-level changes at the edges. Our section
strikes from these margins, unveiling the impact of the Anthropocene on IR
as it manifests through performances across the popular culture-world
politics (PCWP) continuum.


We seek submissions focused on imaginaries of post-apocalyptic/dystopian
IR, far-right ‘environmentalism’, and eco-genocide/eco-apartheid, as well
as human-animal interactions, North-South inequities, and
indigenous/feminist critiques of climate change.


Our call is *transdisciplinary* given the necessity of addressing such
issues through a synergy of forces that cannot be achieved within any
single field of study or research. We are particularly interested in
submissions that go beyond the field of IR, including but not limited to:
Geography, Performance Studies, Queer Studies, Cultural Studies,
Anthropocene Studies, Media Studies, Psychoanalysis, Ecocriticism,
Political Communication, Comparative Literature, Anthropology, and
Sociology.


We invite scholars, artists, and activists to join us with original papers,
performances, interventions, and projects addressing the theme of our panel.


*Suggested themes of critical/creative engagement:*


*- Filmic narratives *(e.g. *The Day After Tomorrow, Geostorm, Snowpiercer,
What Happened to* *Monday, Mad Max: Fury Road, Blade Runner 2049,
Annihilation).*


*- Literary visions *(e.g. James’ *The Children of Men*, Windo’s *The Feed*,
McCarthy’s *The Road*, Atwood’s *The Handmaid’s Tale *and *MaddAddam
Trilogy*, Bacigalupi’s *The Windup Girl*, El- Akkad’s *American War*).


*- Political/social/ecological performances *(e.g. the rising of Greta
Thunberg’s international activism, speeches, and interviews,
FridaysForFuture and Extinction Rebellion, the political figure of the
climate refugee, Trump’s withdrawal from the Paris Agreement, Bolsonaro’s
UN theatrics - paired with planetary untameable wildfires, unprecedented
flooding, racing icecap melting, and the Insect Armageddon).


*The above list is intended to be illustrative, not at all exhaustive.*


If you would like to informally discuss ideas for papers and/or panels
prior to final submission, please get in touch ASAP with both section
chairs Gabriella Calchi Novati ([log in to unmask]) and Robert A.
Saunders ([log in to unmask]) and not later than *21 February
