Call for Papers - RGS-IBG Annual Conference, Cardiff, 28-31 August 2018

Justice and the politics of deliberation 

The session is sponsored by Geographies of Justice Research Group

Convenors: Crispian Fuller and Geoff Deverteuil (Cardiff University)


There has been increasing concern with how justice is socially constructed and deliberated within various social arenas.  This has been notable within debates on the extent and nature of post-politics/democracy within urban governance (Swyngedouw, 2011), the imbrication of neoliberal tendencies in social life (Smith et al, 2013), and the continuing restructuring of the state, including retreating welfare state arrangements and community responsibilisation under austerity (Clarke and Newman, 2012).  Within such perspectives there has been particular attention towards the social construction and deliberative enactment, performance and contestation of justice by diverse actors, including the emphasis of radical democratic theory and ‘right to the city’ perspectives on judging justice through normative ideals, while deliberative accounts are focused more on the everyday construction of ideals of justice through social interaction.  

Such considerations are critical in the contemporary context because of the rapid reconfiguration of state-market-society relations arising from increasing social and economic inequalities within post-financial crisis trajectories.  This includes austerity and the retreat of the welfare state arising from the reconfiguration of the state, comprising further devolution to cities and destatisation as state withdrawal results in an onus on community, voluntary and market provision of public services.  Correspondingly, the ‘economic’ increasingly takes precedence in these tendencies, most notably in terms of pro-growth agendas by both nations and cities.  Overall, such processes are endowed with deliberations over social justice, including the justification of rationalities, processes of negotiation and argumentation, and development of common understandings, agreement and subordination.  

This session seeks to examine the shifting conceptions and articulations of justice within reconfiguring state-market-society relations through the politics of deliberation, including how justice is constructed, deployed, mediated and contested in deliberative governing landscapes.  In particular, how are conceptions of justice being rationalised by and circulated amongst different actors, and how do these produce divergent politics of acquiescence, reworking and contestation through deliberative spaces?  

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

-	Conceptualising deliberative social justice;
-	Ethical, moral and political dimensions of justice in deliberative relations;
-	Deliberation, justice and the state apparatus; 
-	Welfare state retrenchment, justice and deliberative relations; 
-	State devolution and deliberative justice;
-	Justice, deliberative relations and their role in austerity;
-	Justice within deliberative urban politics and governance;
-	Active citizenship, community responsibilization and deliberative justice;
-	Justice formulations in contesting changing state-market-society relations. 

Please send abstracts of 200-250 words to Crispian Fuller [log in to unmask] by the 1st March.
