ACCS 2014 - The Fourth Asian Conference on Cultural Studies - Borderlands of Becoming, Belonging and Sharing

ACCS 2014 - The Fourth Asian Conference on Cultural Studies - Borderlands of Becoming, Belonging and Sharing 29th May to 1st June 2014 Osaka, Japan Hear the latest research, publish before a global audience, present in a supportive environment, network, engage in new relationships, experience Japan, explore Osaka and Kyoto, join a global academic community... CALL FOR PAPERS DEADLINE EXTENDED - April 1, 2014 Enquiries: accs@iafor.org Web address: http://accs.iafor.org Sponsored by: The International Academic Forum and Global Affiliates, including the Cultural Studies Association of Australasia The International Academic Forum in conjunction with its global partners, including the Cultural Studies Association of Australasia, is proud to announce the Fourth Asian Conference on Cultural Studies, to be held from May 29-June 1, at the Rihga Royal Hotel and the adjoining Osaka International Conference Center. The Fourth Asian Conference on Cultural Studies will offer a rich diversity of academic and cultural activity in the fantastically stimulating context of Japan, and in one of the world's great cities. Come and join us in Osaka for what promises to be a culturally stimulating, challenging and exciting event. Conference Theme: Borderlands of Becoming, Belonging and Sharing Local, national and global cultures have been transformed by an intensification of human migration, mobility and multi-culture with multiple and complex claims of home, identity and belonging. Gloria Anzaldua's idea of the borderland has become a critical conceptual rubric used by cultural researchers as a way of understanding, explaining and articulating the in-determined, vague, ambiguous nature of everyday life and the cultural politics of border-knowledge, border crossings, transgression, living in-between and multiple belongings. Borderlands is also about a social space where people of diverse backgrounds and identities meet and share a space in which the politics of co-presence and co-existence are experienced and enacted in mundane ways. This conference, which focuses on the borderlands of becoming, belonging and sharing, is therefore about examining how the culture of everyday life is regulated and contested across diverse political, economic and social contexts, and whether and how it creates spaces of belonging with others. The aim of this conference theme is to open up discussion, critical reflection and analysis about emerging social, political and cultural identities that are formed at the intersection of multiple and multi-sited belongings and their expression and about the possibility of making them shared across differences. We welcome papers that focus on (but not limited to): - Trans-cultural displacement/belonging - Belonging and the intersections of gender, race, religion, sexuality - Seeking refuge, unruly belonging(s) and border politics - Trauma and joy of becoming and belonging - Communication, new technologies and belonging - Cultural narratives of belonging/not belonging - Cultural politics of survival/transgression - New imaginings/formations of home - Citizenship beyond borders - Multicultural exhaustion/renewal - Belonging in the Anthropocene - Multiple and complex belongings - Re-locating culture across borders - Convivial cultures and the imagined communities - Creation of shared space(s) of multiple belongings We hope that the 2014 conference theme will encourage academic and personal encounters and exchanges across national, religious, cultural and disciplinary divides. We look forward to seeing you (again) in Osaka!

Twelfth International Conference on Books, Publishing and Libraries

THE TWELFTH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON BOOKS, PUBLISHING, AND LIBRARIES Boston, USA Simmons College 8-9 November 2014 Dear Delegate, Proposals for paper presentations, workshops, posters or colloquia are invited for the Twelfth International Conference on Books, Publishing, and Libraries being held at Simmons College in Boston, USA from 8-9 November 2014. We welcome proposals from a variety of disciplines and perspectives that will contribute to the conference discourse. We also encourage faculty and research students to submit joint proposals for paper presentations or colloquia. SPECIAL CONFERENCE FOCUS: "Disruptive Technologies and the Evolution of Book Publishing and Library Development" Change for the better, or change for the worse? New technology in publishing and library science disrupts established literary, academic and business models. How can we assess the impact of a constantly flowing river of change? Will the books or libraries of tomorrow look anything like those of yesterday or today? Are the e-book, the blog post, the app and the tweet just the beginning of a deeper revolution? Will algorithms "think" just like humans in the future when we research a topic or store our narratives and information? Is respect and preference for print and physical libraries the new Luddite view, or is it still a sensible, viable posture in the volatile realm of today's and tomorrow's writing, reading, publishing and library science? The 2014 meeting will feature a special focus on this provocative subject. We welcome open debate, discourse and research from participants that center on this special topic, as well as any other themes or issues relevant to books, publishing, and libraries. CONFERENCE THEMES: Proposals for paper presentations, workshops or colloquia are invited that discuss the broader themes listed below. In addition to the special focus, paper presentations will be grouped into one of the following categories for presentation at the conference: Theme 1: Publishing Practices: Past, Present, and Future Theme 2: Reading, Writing, Literacy, and Learning Theme 3: Books and Libraries If you are unable to attend the conference in person, you may still join the community and submit your article for peer review and possible publication, upload an online presentation, and enjoy subscriber access to The International Journal of the Book. Proposals for in-person presentations should be submitted by 25 AUGUST 2014 (title and short abstract). Proposals submitted after this day will be accommodated in non-themed sessions at the conference or are eligible for community membership registrations (no attendance at conference required with community membership presentations).
