Hi,

The deadline to submit an abstract for the PEFR24 conference is extended to June 14th.

Conference: Political Ecologies of the Far Right 2024 (PEFR 2024) 

https://pefr.network/pefr-conference-cfp-2024/

Uppsala University, Sweden, January 11-13, 2024

Deadline for submission of abstracts (paper, panel, wokshop): Thursday 14th June 2023

 

Far-right political parties, ideologies and movements are increasingly exercising influence across the world. At the same time, climate change and environmental degradation are intensifying in their urgency. What happens when the two phenomena meet? How, when and why do they intersect? How are party and non-party sectors of the far right mobilizing ecological issues and discourses to their advantage, whether through championing or rejecting environmentalist claims? What are the ecological underpinnings of far-right politics today? Following the 2019 PEFR conference and in light of the persistent relevance of the above questions, the PEFR network – founded to foster information sharing and act as an access and contact point to anyone interested in the phenomenon -, invites everyone interested to the second interdisciplinary conference on the political ecologies of the far right, PEFR 2024. 

 

The conference aims to bring together not only scholars studying the far right and political ecology but also a wide range of activists and practitioners from various sectors of society. This conference aims to provide a space for collaboration, mutual learning, and networking. We welcome contributions from activists and scholars from all disciplines, and look forward to receiving submissions for individual papers, panels and workshops. In particular, we welcome submissions which share and develop ideas via mixed, academic-activist events.  

 

The conference is organized by the Political Ecologies of the Far Right (PEFR) network, together with the Centre for Studies of Climate Change Denialism (CEFORCED) at Chalmers University of Technology; the Department of Human Geography, the research project White Skin Black Fuel, and CEMFOR at Uppsala University.
