Times New RomanCALL FOR CONFERENCE PAPERS
Cultural Identity, Difference and Resistance
23 September (Saturday) 2000
St. Mary's College, Twickenham
This interdisciplinary conference will explore the links and
tensions between the desire for a democratic form of life,
personal liberty, and the preservation and creation of cultural
identities and difference.
These three imperatives cannot be easily reconciled and are
often in uneasy or actual conflict. Their integration is an
important political, social and cultural project with which
activists and theorists must engage for a truly democratic
society to develop.
The conference programme will include two well-known
keynote speakers.
The key themes to be addressed in this conference are:
* minority identities and cultures of resistance
* the problem of 'the Other' in ethics, morality and religion
* policing identity and difference: politics, policy and practice
* cultural representations of difference
Proposals for papers -up to 250 words- should include your title, topic,
summary, and affiliation and subject area. Graduate students welcome.
