Subject: call for papers: intraurban borderlands from a global perspective
Apologies for cross posting.
Call for Papers
Session at the ISA-RC21 Tokyo Conference on Landscapes of Global Urbanism:
Power, Marginality, and Creativity, December 17-20, 2008
SEARCHING FOR COMMON GROUND:
INTRAURBAN BORDERLANDS FROM A GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE
Borderlands are entities acting towards both the division and the fusion of
the different. They exist in every city as a source of friction. They are
essential for those present within and along them when it comes to bonding
and the formation of hybrid (or multiple) identities within the urban
context.
This session seeks to explore the manifold aspects incorporated within the
notion of intraurban borderlands - be they spatial, social, temporal, or
cultural - including, but not limited to, those between old and new, modern
and traditional, rich and poor, planned and organic, formal and informal,
permanent and temporary, local and migrant. Helping to position borderlands
within different geographical settings, their differences and
commonalities, papers will be concerned with the ways in which intraurban
borderlands emerge, are being established, tolerated, accepted, or
eradicated.
Proposals for papers should be within 150 words, and include your name,
affiliation and email address. Abstracts are to be submitted to Deljana
Iossifova ([log in to unmask]) and the ISA-RC21 Tokyo Conference
Organizing committee ([log in to unmask]) by May 15th, 2008.
