The (Re)generation of the Nonhuman: Nature and Text in
Dialogue
https://cfplist.com/nemla/Home/S/21903
The last decade has seen a surge in scholarly
interdisciplinarity, exploring the nonhuman in a broad range of critical
perspectives and we see a growing pace of intersectionality within which nature
and literature are brazenly intertwined. In the face of today’s climate change
and biodiversity loss, this session proposes a constructive way of exploring
literature’s capacity to both reflect (on) the devastation of the natural world
and, more importantly, provide imaginative models for its regeneration. Drawing
on ecocritical theory, environmental humanities, posthumanism, and new
materialism, this session invites papers that trace how literary texts can
challenge anthropocentric templates, (re)framing a textual world in which the
nonhuman is seen as an active element with agency, forging a reciprocal
connection with the human world.

Revolutionary Nature
https://networks.h-net.org/group/announcements/20121386/revolutionary-nature-acla-2026-seminar
In an era where genocide is both human and ecological—seen
in settler-colonialism, war, and climate-induced displacement—the dialectic of
revolutionary nature must involve both mourning and mobilization. It is not
enough to recover ecological relations severed by capitalism; we must ask
whether new associative production processes can be built—ones that are
healing, relational, and co-evolutionary. This involves re-imagining labor not
as surplus extraction, but as radical care and regeneration. Revolutionary
nature today means living and organizing in the cracks of catastrophe, forming
counter-geographies where both ecosystems and social relations can be
transformed. This panel will consider the implications of revolutionary nature
today via political, cultural, aesthetic, and social forms.

African American History Conference
https://www.memphis.edu/history/gaaah/index.php
In the wake of the numerous attacks on African American
History, the Graduate Association for African American History (GAAAH) invites
scholars, practitioners, and activists to delve deeply into the complexities of
memory and legacy within African American history. The narratives surrounding
this rich history are often multifaceted and contested, influenced by a range
of perspectives and experiences. The 2026 GAAAH Conference will take place
on February 18-20, 2026, at the University of Memphis.
The submission deadline for proposals is Monday, January
5, 2026.

Preserving Histories and Legacies in the 21st Century
https://www.aaihs.org/call-for-papers-aaihs-2026-conference/
The African American Intellectual History Society’s
Eleventh Annual Conference, March 27-28, 2026. Pittsburgh,
PA
Where in this altered terrain of historical discourse does
the scholar of Black histories belong? The theme for the 2026 AAIHS conference
opens an opportunity to consider this question collectively. Through the theme,
“Preserving Histories and Legacies in the 21st Century,” AAIHS encourages
conference participants to reflect on how we have historicized African and
African-descended peoples from slavery to the present and how we might do so
still. We hope this invitation prompts scholars, activists, artists, curators,
archivists, and other intellectuals to interrogate notions of change;
continuity; and progress–all key elements of historical inquiry. As always, we
are eager to engage these questions through multiple research fields, methods,
and methodologies.
Submission Deadline: September 30, 2025

PUBLICATIONS
Ecofeminism Otherwise: Situated Knowledges in a Time of
Planetary Crisis
The editors invite original thought-provoking contributions
for this interdisciplinary volume, which aims to revisit ecofeminism as a
plural, evolving framework that intersects with contemporary artistic and
curatorial practices, particularly in response to environmental and social
justice concerns. The volume seeks to foreground situated, practice-based, and
more-than-human approaches that challenge extractivist logics and reimagine
ecological and political futures. We are particularly interested in contributions
that offer critical insights into ecofeminism through a wide array of
theoretical and methodological frameworks, support interdisciplinary dialogue
and engage with feminist ecologies from Indigenous, Global South, and other
marginalised perspectives.

Academizines
https://tinyurl.com/academizines
We invite proposals for Academizines, a special issue of
Unbound: A Journal of Digital Scholarship. Zines have evolved as a form of
scholarly communication that reaches wider publics than traditional academic
publishing, and allows for a greater degree of creativity and innovation than
conventional forms. This special issue invites contributors from across the
disciplines to share their research and creative scholarship in zine form. We
welcome contributions in the language, vernacular, and forms used by the
scholars and communities the zines serve, and encourage international
perspectives, particularly from the global South and other regions not well
represented in US-based scholarly journals and archives.
Deadline for Abstracts: September 15, 2025
(Un)Doing Labor
https://www.invisibleculturejournal.com/pub/cfp-issue-41/release/3?readingCollection=0834bc88
Amid the erosion of labor protections in academia,
increasing challenges faced by immigrant workers in the US, and global labor
conflicts in fields like healthcare and agriculture, this moment calls for a
reconsideration of what labor is and how its value is structured. For Issue 41,
InVisible Culture invites articles and artworks that engage with labor as
manifested in visual culture, from embodied processes (factory assembly,
caregiving, artisanal crafts, reproductive work) to posthuman, data-driven
labor performances. Additionally, we encourage submissions that engage with
labor as it pertains to displacement caused by neoliberalism, whether it be
through how Filipina domestic workers and their families deploy visual
technologies to sustain “communities of care”; or Amazon warehouse workers navigating
AI surveillance and “time-off-task” algorithms.
Deadline: Submissions due October 1, 2025 to invisible.culture@ur.rochester.edu.
Star Wars and Politics in the Disney Era
This edited volume seeks to collect scholarship on the
treatment of political themes and world-building in the Star Wars franchise
since Disney acquired Lucasfilm in 2012. Scholars have thoroughly explored
political topics in George Lucas’s works, but have paid less attention to how
Star Wars projects under Disney have continued, changed, or challenged the
franchise’s approach to politics. To advance the scholarship on this subject,
we welcome proposals from a variety of disciplines and perspectives, including
literary criticism, cultural history, political science, film studies, and
fandom studies.
Interested authors should email proposals to sweede01@luther.edu and dnardi@umich.edu by September
30, 2025:
Anticolonial Theories as Objects of Historical Inquiry
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/page/journal/2832580x/call-for-papers/anticolonial-theories
For an upcoming special issue of Sociology
Lens (formerly Journal of Historical Sociology, at /journal/2832580x),
we invite papers that historicize the theory- making endeavors of marginalized
individuals and communities in the colonial modern world. These may include
well-known individual thinkers—such as Ida B. Wells-Barnett, W. E.
B. Du Bois, and St. Clair Drake—as well as groups or
organizations directly engaged in anticolonial struggles. By situating
these knowledge-production processes within global power relations, we aim to
show how historicizing anticolonial theorists allows us to rethink the
“relevance” and “generality” of theory itself. We hope to demonstrate that,
although theories are often treated as universally applicable vessels,
highlighting the colonial and imperial contexts in which they were forged lets
us honor the theorists’ efforts to navigate their local realities and their
commitment to imagining their world—transnational in scope—anew.

Dictionary of Gender in Translation
The Dictionary of Gender in Translation –a project of the
International Research Network-IRN World Gender– is open to new contributions.
The goal is to shed light on the ways in which these notions are understood in
different linguistic, social, political and cultural contexts, and on how
gender studies have developed in these diverse contexts. It proposes an open
and non-definitive cartography of the transnational circulations of ideas in
the field of gender studies. The first published entries are available on the
Dictionary website via the following link:
The format of the entries is open: it can be an article
(between 5 000 and 14 000 characters including spaces), a podcast, or a video.
Please send your proposals before September 15, 2025 to: umr8238.dictionnairegenre@services.cnrs.fr

Pain: Embodied Practice, Spiritual Resonance
https://www.intellectbooks.com/dance-movement-spiritualities#call-for-papers
Special issue, Dance,
Movement & Spiritualities
Pain, as an experience, baffles the paradigmatic distinction
between good and bad feelings. As a word, its ambivalence shows itself through
the dual meanings of (as a noun) ‘punishment’ and ‘penalty’, and (as a verb),
‘to strive’, ‘to endeavour’. To feel and to produce pain is to experience loss
and productive movement at the same time. The artforms most well suited to this
duality, then, are those that emphasize the transition from noun (thing) to
verb (motion): music, theatre and dance. This call seeks to investigate the
questions that arise at the intersections of suffering, spirituality, and
movement-based healing and experiences of pain.

Gendered Bodies and Digital Selfhood in Short-form
Videos: Research from the Global South
The rise of digital platforms has significantly shaped the
ways in which gender is negotiated in the digital age. Discourses on the
digital self centre around how bodies perform and how they can deviate from the
socially accepted aspects of gender performativity. Social media platforms
facilitate a redefinition of how gendered bodies are expressed, performed, and
consumed. This special issue invites submissions that explore the intersections
of gender, self-representation, digital reels, and platform culture, with an
emphasis on how gender is both expressed and commodified in online spaces. We
welcome analyses of how these expressions either reinforce or resist hegemonic
and violent structures, and their implications for feminist scholarship in
terms of agency and affect. We encourage interdisciplinary perspectives from
gender studies, media studies, sociology, cultural studies, and related fields,
particularly those rooted in the Global South, that critically examine how
gender is represented, commodified, and contested in the age of digital reels.
Please submit a 300-word abstract along with the author’s
biographical note to sfvspecialissue@gmail.com by September 15, 2025.
Queer and Trans Religiosities in South Asia: Lived
Practices, Embodied Beliefs, and Subversive Theologies
In South Asia, religiosity is deeply woven into everyday
life, shaping not only cosmologies and moral worlds but also social
hierarchies, kinship systems, and embodied practices. Queer and trans
individuals in South Asia have long negotiated complex relationships with
religiosity across, within, and beyond dominant religious institutions. From
temple rituals and Sufi shrines to Buddhist sanghas, Christian congregations,
indigenous cosmologies, and diasporic spiritualities, queer and trans persons
continue to reshape the terrain of the sacred, asserting visibility and
belonging where they have often been rendered invisible or deviant.
This edited volume seeks to bring together interdisciplinary
scholarship and lived narratives that explore queer and trans religiosities in
South Asia, including both historical and contemporary engagements. We are
interested in how religiosity is performed, contested, reinterpreted, and
inhabited by queer and trans people across caste, class, region, and linguistic
communities.

The interrelation of social concepts and biodiversity
conservation: Breaking down disciplinary silos to create a better planet
https://vernonpress.com/proposal/332/ef93e9a3eab3e230c347e9e0ed30d51b
This edited volume will seek to explore this topic, allowing
several key approaches, from the micro to the macro level. On the micro level
of the researcher, one can explore which social components, including biases,
may impact where, what, and with which methods they do their work. This can
require direct research to understand what these social components are, as well
as, deeper explorations of where these social components come from. This can
apply to various stakeholders, from biologists, to policymakers, to artists.
How do they choose what to study and explore? Furthermore, how entire
worldviews interact must be considered. For instance, in terms of Indigenous
knowledge, which is rarely free of influence from Western worldviews as it is,
one can interrogate whether there are ways to create a bridge that brings the
best of both views, while simultaneously ensuring the protection of Indigenous
knowledge and lifeways, which should be a key goal in any such interactions.

- Premised on the idea that queer and class are inevitably intertwined, the conference asks what the construction “queer-class” illuminates, obfuscates, disrupts, and structures. How can we understand erotic, economic, personal, and social relations in ways that help us build queer-class solidarities, for example within university-based queer and trans studies, across activist sites in the Global South, or amidst the wreckage of the current U.S. political landscape?

HYPE STUDIES CONFERENCE
https://hypestudies.org/conference
10th to 12th of September, virtual options
Hype is a powerful and pervasive phenomenon that influences
economic trends, political agendas, media narratives, and technological
development. It creates momentum, attracts investment, and fuels speculation,
while simultaneously distorting reality, misallocating resources, and
amplifying uncertainties. Hype is not just an exaggeration—it is a dynamic
process that plays a crucial role in contemporary societies, shaping
decision-making at multiple levels. This conference aims to examine hype as a
performative force, exploring its mechanisms, effects, and implications across
different domains.

Close Looking and the Importance of Community Connections
with Collections
Indigenous peoples’ ethnographic objects have entered
museums through a variety of collecting methods. As a result, many of these
items have lost the ties that connect them to the names of their original
makers and owners. This loss in documentation is reflected in museum
collections across the world, and while outside researchers can employ the
technique of close looking to learn more about specific objects, individuals
from the material culture’s own community can sometimes answer questions and
make connections that add significantly to the accession records and overall
museum dialogue. Register for this month's lecture (held at noon on 08/22/25)
