CONFERENCES AND WORKSHOPS
Queering Postcolonial Worlds
https://postcolonial-narrations.net/current_conference/
October 6th & 7th, 2023
The main objective of the conference is to probe and interrogate the overlaps and intersections between queer studies and postcolonial studies while maintaining a critical approach to disciplinary boundaries and their assumptions and limitations. In so doing, we establish continuities to the 2022 conference’s focus on “Postcolonial Matters of Life and Death” in productive ways. Here, questions of how to rethink queer studies in relation to decoloniality and how to queer postcolonial studies come together.
Interested postgraduate students are encouraged to send abstracts for 20-minute-long presentations (ca. 300 words + 5 keywords) and a short bio note (ca. 100-150 words) to postcolonialnarrations@g-a-p-s.net by June 30, 2023.
Material Girls & Boys: Narrated Fashion in Children’s Media
https://materialgirlsandboys.com/
March 7th – 9th, 2024 Goethe-University in Frankfurt/Main, Germany
Clothing is a daily feature of every child’s life and this significance carries through into the media created for children and young people. From picture books for toddlers that teach the conventions of correct dressing and undressing, to computer games that revolve around dressing an avatar in the best possible way for an occasion, the range of children's and youth media in which Clothing plays a central role is vast. Yet despite the material turn in children’s literature studies signalled by M. Nikolajeva in 2016, there remains little sustained examination of clothing and fashion in relation to works produced for young audiences. This interdisciplinary, international conference seeks to catalyse work in this field and invites contributions spanning a range of primary sources and conceptual frameworks.
Please send your abstracts to: i.schaefer@em.uni-frankfurt.de and k.e.vaclavik@qmul.ac.uk by July 15th 2023.
Hate Inc.: Examining “Legitimized” Hate Groups and their Multimedia Strategies
https://pamla.ballastacademic.com/Home/S/18862
Accepting abstracts for roundtable session, as part of the lineup for the 2023 Pacific Ancient and Modern Language Association (PAMLA) conference. It will be held at the Hilton Portland Downtown, Oct. 26th - 29th, in Portland, Oregon.
What do we make of designated hate groups, prejudiced websites, and malicious publications that go beyond the usual KKK or neo-Nazi fare? What happens when they style themselves in ways that are “rhetorically complex” or familiar to the extent of sounding legitimate, complete with institutional language, business-savvy marketing strategies, and ambiguous or veiled statements of ideology? This panel aims to interrogate such cases across a diverse range of disciplinary knowledge and methodology.
Deadline for abstracts: May 31, 2023

Women’s History Network Annual Conference
October 20-21, 2023, Toronto, ON
The Ontario Women’s History Network (OWHN) encourages the preservation, production, and dissemination of women’s and gender history in Ontario, with a special emphasis on teaching and study of history. We welcome students, teachers, museum professionals, public historians, professors, archivists, librarians, independent researchers and anyone else interested in women’s and gender history. As we reflect on the 75th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, there are accomplishments to celebrate, but much work remains unfinished. The Ontario Women’s History Network is dedicated to advancing the teaching and representation of women and gender in classrooms and historic sites across the province. Representation matters.

Living Together: Environmentalisms and the Good Life
https://philevents.org/event/show/110037
Department of Philosophy and Religion, University of North Texas
October 6, 2023 - October 8, 2023
Human intervention in Earth’s processes continues to scale up in the third decade of the 21st century, despite urgent calls for comprehensive change. Marginalized groups, meanwhile, feel impacts first and to the greatest extent. How can we promote opportunities for the good life among all, from the scale of the geopolitical or planetary to local relationships between rural settlements and urban centers, between neighborhoods, between neighbors, and between species? In this setting, what must 21st-century environmentalisms look like if we are committed to respecting a plurality of human and more-than-human traditions, identities, histories, and futures? This conference seeks to highlight interdisciplinary approaches to environmentalisms and the good life.
Please submit a 300-400 word abstract by June 23 to prgraduateconferenceunt@gmail.com
Religion and Culture in the Americas Seminar
https://www.newberry.org/research/scholarly-seminars
The Religion and Culture in the Americas Seminar explores topics in religion and culture broadly from interdisciplinary perspectives, including social history, biography, cultural studies, visual and material culture, urban studies, and the history of ideas. We are interested in how religious belief has affected society, rather than creedal or theological focused studies. The seminar provides an opportunity for scholars to share papers that use new methods, unveil archival discoveries, and offer new interpretations. Papers are pre-circulated. Presenters make a 10 to 15 minute presentation followed by a short commentary by a scholar in the field, followed by a discussion with seminar participants. The seminar typically meets on selected Fridays from 3:00-4:30 pm. In AY 2023-2024, all sessions will take place online via Zoom.
Submission Deadline: June 15, 2023

Inventing the Human
https://humanposthuman.joyn-us.app/
29th November to 2nd December 2023, University of Melbourne (f2f and virtual)
This interdisciplinary and hybrid conference sets out to place the (liberal-humanist) subject dispatched by posthumanism inside the much larger field of Enlightenment/Romantic thought on this topic—a field that, on the one hand, is no longer imagined as beginning and ending in Europe and, on the other hand, is always already in dialogue or conflict with non-European traditions, understandings, and discourses of the human. We take as our key themes the pasts, futures, and varieties of reason, imagination, liberty, and the body—terms crucial to modern understandings of the human. But we do this in order to ask, in a world where Europe is merely one centre among many, what of this legacy can be dispatched? What can be revised or extended by other traditions? What in the world’s multiple humanities might open new possibilities for the future? And what does our answer to these questions mean for the methods, roles, and organising categories of the Humanities?
Deadline for receipt of proposals: Monday 29 May 2023

Whither – isms
https://networks.h-net.org/node/73374/announcements/12818947/call-graduate-papers-whither-isms
Our conference explores the relations between theory and history and the formulations of theories of history. How do various theoretical modes, like Marxism, Modernism, Feminism, Deconstructionism, Postmodernism, and so forth, help us address the limitations of traditional historical practice? Or, how do these theories create inhibitions that prevent new forms of the historical method? Has the time come to abandon theory altogether or whould we, as scholars, re-formulate theory to suit the unique challneges and anxieties that studying the past represent in this contentious present? Is such a reform(ulation) possible? If so, how? Whether you tangentially utilize or intensively interrogate theory in your academic work, we of the HGSA encourage graduate students of all fields in the humanities and social sciences to apply.
The conference will be held at Stony Brook University in Stony Brook, New York (a two-hour train ride from New York City) on September 28 and 29, 2023. Please submit a paper title, abstract (150-200 words) and a one-page curriculum vitae (including preferred name and pronouns) to our online application linked here by June 15th.

Artistic, Architectural and Political-Economic Performance within the Interplay of Productivity and Temporality
23&24 November 2023, Mozarteum Salzburg & Museum der Moderne Salzburg
What ideas of productivity underlie concepts of time? How do these notions influence the formation of networks of relationships and positions as well as aesthetic and conceptual practices? These questions will be approached from a transdisciplinary perspective. The investigation of the interrelations between artistic form, political-economic ideas and spatial settings is intended to open the field for the imaginative potential of deconstruction and the emergence of a critical-reflexive position on the question of productivity. The interlocking strands of thought are meant to challenge, confront and reflect each other. The deconstruction of established mechanisms and the possibility of collage, folding, overlapping, which enables a different pictorial structure and a multi-layered composition, are placed here in a relational context.
Please submit abstracts of up to 500 words and a biography of 100 words to prodworck@gmail.com
until 10 July 2023
Critical Conversations: Teaching and Creating Community in Difficult Times
https://networks.h-net.org/node/73374/announcements/12819409/cfp-2023-h-net-teaching-conference
The conference will be held in a virtual format during the week of August 21
In an era when educators are under assault for teaching Critical Race Theory, implementing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion initiatives, and subjected to various external forces regarding curriculum development, book bans, and course redesigns, this conference will be a gathering to navigate these challenges and discuss solutions and strategies in the face of threats to academic freedom. We welcome individual, panel, and roundtable proposals on any and all aspects of teaching, including the scholarship of teaching and learning (SOTL), theories and methodologies, remote and hybrid learning, content and delivery, as well as combining research interests into the classroom for first-year students and non-majors.
Please email submissions to H-Net Teaching Conference Committee at teach.history@mail.h-net.org by Saturday, May 27, 2023.
The Materiality of Resistance
https://networks.h-net.org/node/73374/announcements/12852490/call-papers-materiality-resistance
The Materiality of Resistance will be a two-day symposium in San Francisco, California (March 7-8, 2024) exploring the artistic deployment of materials as tools to imagine, promote, and enact resistance to the status quo in American art and visual culture. By invoking the word “material,” we throw into relief substances—unique and many, observable and nearly imperceptible—that are marshaled and transformed by makers into things perceived as significant, useful, and of value. With this call for papers, we solicit participation from transdisciplinary scholars and we strongly encourage intersectional as well as underrepresented topics. Please submit an abstract of approximately 300 words by August 15, 2023, using this form.

Darkness in the American Imagination
https://www.popmec.com/darkness-conference/
virtual conference 4–8 September 2023
Darkness has always been defined in binary opposition to light. As Toni Morrison puts it in Playing in the Dark (1992): “Whiteness, alone, is mute, meaningless, unfathomable, pointless, frozen, veiled, curtained, dreaded, senseless, implacable.” While darkness and light are mutually constitutive, the threshold between the two is ambivalent; it is blurry and changing. In addition to its symbolic dimensions, the darkness-vs.-light binary can also be taken literally: the early settlers feared the dark while electricity effectively banished darkness from cities, for example. The dark may be rife with danger, a metaphorical space of erasure, and a tool of obfuscation, but at the same time, the dark may provide protection, a space for subversion, and a place of beauty.
Deadline for submission: JUNE 11, 2023 to popmec.darkness@gmail.com
PUBLICATIONS
Digital Platforms and Agency, Lateral Special Section
https://csalateral.org/upcoming/
A digital platform is a standard which facilitates computational interactions between users and systems, according to Ian Bogost. Ubiquitous but self-effacing, platforms increasingly mediate the constitution and expression of consciousness. Troubling clean divisors between humanity and technology, platforms pose a challenge to monolithic, individuated, and humanist notions of agency that the field of cultural studies is uniquely poised to address. We seek a diverse collection of essays that reflect the interdisciplinarity of cultural studies and platform studies. We encourage submissions from myriad traditions and approaches including media studies, political economy, performance studies, communication, composition, science and technology studies, gender studies, sociology, computer science, and more.
Please send all submissions and inquiries to digitalplatformsandagency@gmail.com. Potential authors should submit a 500-word abstract by June 30, 2023 to digitalplatformsandagency@gmail.com.
Ruptures, Resistance, Reclamation: Global Feminisms in a Digital Age
https://journals.msvu.ca/index.php/atlantis/callforpapers
In this special issue, we invite contributors to engage with global feminist perspectives and the various devices, tools, and interactions that characterize the digital age. We particularly welcome submissions that explore, examine, and interrogate sites of feminist rupture, resistance, and reclamation. We conceive of 'digital' in a broad fashion. Contributions could examine technology that operates on a binary system, storing and processing information and mediating, facilitating, and sometimes hindering our own relations. Digital can refer to things that are offline or online. We welcome submissions that can speak to the Global South or North and contributions from a wide range of sites, including comparative accounts.
Please submit an abstract of 500-750 words by May 25, 2023.
For questions about this Call for Papers or the submission process, please contact Katherine Barrett, Managing Editor: atlantis.journal@msvu.ca
Memory Over Forgetting: Monuments, Memorials and Intangible Heritage
We invite article proposals for a Radical History Review issue on monuments, memorials, and counter-memory that consider these efforts to transform public markers of memory. We are especially interested in submissions that query how sites negotiate troubled histories (genocide, racism, colonialism, occupation) in troubled times (Eastern Europe today, confederate monuments in the US South, Tiananmen Square protest monuments in Hong Kong). We welcome contributions that focus on grassroots memory-work by Indigenous communities, people of color, LGBTQ activists, or working-class mobilizations.

History as Political Theory: History, Time, and Political Action
The purpose of this volume is to explore history and time as key categories for understanding both political thought and practice. While treating ideas historically has long been a core feature of political theory, our aim is to explore history as an idea — as the substance of the thought, rather than the method of its reconstruction. And while time is a familiar element of political science — which looks at data in time series, or examines institutions over the course of their development — we seek to understand how history and time are conceptualized and used within politics, rather than from the outside by the political observer. We are seeking papers that examine the use of history and time as theory in numerous contexts.
Interested authors can submit their abstracts (500 words), and a short biography (100 words) to the book editor, to Dr. Anthony Sparacino at asparacino3@gmail.com, by August 15, 2023.
Humanities in the Time of ChatGPT and other forms of Artificial Intelligence
Fall 2023 Issue of Critical Humanities
As a challenge to this revolutionary and transformative portrayal of AI, George Hinton, a pioneering figure in the field of AI, points out the opposite side of Artificial Intelligence. “It is hard to see how you can prevent the bad actors from using it for bad things.” Though these positions seem to represent two opposite ends of the spectrum, their opposition is not simply a case of luddites vs. technocrats. Instead, their perspectives invite us to respond to them, question them, and think seriously about the promises and predicaments, the uncertainties and usefulness, the thrills and threats of not only the language and discourse generating AI tools. While a significant purist minority within the Humanities have been crying foul over the introduction and deployment of non-humanities critical perspectives especially in the analysis and discussion of art, literature, music and philosophy, the interfacing of humanities and technologies by necessity or design is/will be an inevitable outcome of our interdisciplinary futures.

life changes in a (un)sustainable world
https://glocalismjournal.org/cfp-2023-3-life-changes-in-a-unsustainable-world/
A great portion of the economically underprivileged population has been lifted out of absolute poverty, especially in the non “Western” world, and has fuelled a new desire for active participation. In fact, economic and social inequalities are skyrocketing due to the rise and dominance of the super-rich class. The gap between the top one per cent and the rest of the population is widening, loosening the social bond which social peace and prosperity are built upon. This diminishes people’s confidence in politics and especially the regulatory power of the State. The global risk society redefines not only power relations between nations and supra-national institutions, but also class relations at the national and trans-national level. At the same time, it calls for a paradigmatic change that envisions new and more sustainable ways of life, the reduction of inequalities, and new forms of political participation and organization. Given these major challenges, in a (un)sustainable world, how should life opportunities and different normative views on them be considered? How do structural transformations affect social inequality? Which socio-cultural visions might sustain the social change needed to overcome these major problems?
Deadline: September 30, 2023.

Trans Studies Syllabus for Bullshit Times
https://www.radicalhistoryreview.org/abusablepast/trans-studies-syllabus-for-bullshit-times/
Trans studies today is a vibrant, rapidly expanding field in conversation with many different disciplines and interdisciplines, and current pedagogical approaches to the field centralize trans scholars, intersectional analysis, and transnational and decolonial frameworks. Acknowledging the many queer, trans, and gender nonconforming students in our classrooms who feel overwhelmed by the recent onslaught of attacks, we hope that these texts can offer the language and space needed to make sense of the present and provide examples of survival, resistance, and change.
