Please excuse cross-postings:
The international conference Global Challenges: Borders, Populism and the Postcolonial Condition addresses current global challenges with a focus on the present resurrection of geographical and intellectual borders, the rise of populism in the West and beyond, and the realisation that current geopolitical relations are still deeply informed by the long history of colonialism. Confirmed keynotes are Boaventura de Sousa Santos, Dominick LaCapra, Carolyn J Dean, and Gurminder K Bhambra. To facilitate a productive and interdisciplinary meeting, the conference will include scholars from a wide interdisciplinary spectrum, including postcolonial studies, migration studies, animal studies, trauma studies, and ecocriticism.
We welcome both suggestions for panels and for individual papers. Please send either a panel proposal of 600-900 words or a 300-word abstract for an individual presentation by January 15, 2018 (DEADLINE). Panel proposals should contain both a short description of the focus of the panel and the 3-4 abstracts that make up the content. Individual abstracts will be allocated a panel after review. Please include basic contact and affiliation details. Submit your abstract or panel by using the submission function that you find at the conference website: https://lnu.se/en/research/conferences/global-challenges/
