The Asian Conference on Arts and Humanities 2018 (ACAH2018)
| ***The Early Bird Submission Deadline is rapidly approaching. Submit your abstract by November 10, in order to be eligible to receive the Early Bird Registration discount. Dear Colleague, We invite you to join IAFOR and participants from around the world in Kobe, Japan, for The Asian Conference on Arts and Humanities 2018 (ACAH2018), March 30 – April 1, 2018. ***Conference Theme: "Recentering: Asian Spaces, Cultures and Ideas in the 21st Century" If globalisation is characterised by simultaneous networks of information, has the concept of centres become obsolete? Or do certain recent geopolitical developments – the fading of America's "global leadership" being counterbalanced by the rise of China's, the latter's new Belt and Road Initiative promising to become a new Silk Road, Britain's exit from the EU, and the newly proposed trade agreements between Japan and Europe – put the world on the verge of a radical recentering? Will the burgeoning mega-cities in Asia displace the traditional nation-state in the competition for capital, status and enhanced technologies? Scholars and students of the humanities have long questioned the extent to which shifts in formations of power – empires, countries, regions, cities – resonate through cultural practices that centre on literary and aesthetic meaning, expression and representation. This provokes further questions about how such centres can be identified, defined and represented; and about their relations of other types and modes of centering. Is cultural prestige dependent on political centrality? Or can it be achieved through the circulation of forms and aesthetics that operate in their own economy? For that matter, what is central to its meanings and valuations of culture? What of the humanities themselves? Fears of their marginalisation are based on the assumption that they were once central, and that the only way to restore their former authority is to argue against their subordination to scientific, technological or vocational forms of education. Can the humanities find new life in multi- or cross-disciplinary frameworks? How can they survive the dominant trend towards more marketable or "useful" forms of education? What is central to the humanities? Should older disciplines such as Literature and Aesthetics reinvent themselves as it be Cultural Studies? Or should they now concentrate on comprehending their own historical genealogies in relation to current scholarly practices? There is also the question of why, in the wake of postcolonial and transnational decenterings, do elite Anglo-American universities retain so much of their cultural capital? How might humanities redefine themselves if recentred in Asian institutions? Is it possible for the prevailing discourses of Western humanism to be combined with Asian values, goals and traditions? Could such a transformation help to rehabilitate the humanities' current beleaguered status in America and Europe? Our present historical moment compels us to think through the implications of these and other modes of recentering. The Asian Conference on Arts and Humanities 2018 provides an opportunity for academics, artists, writers and students to explore the challenges of multi-faceted and interdisciplinary rethinkings of the ways we imagine, articulate and work with centres. We invite proposals that deal with any aspect of recentering, and offer a following list of possible areas of exploration that can be found on the homepage of the conference website. In conjunction with our Global Partners, Including Osaka University and Lehigh University, we look forward to extending you a warm welcome in 2018. – The ACAH2018 Organising Committee Professor Donald E.

The IAFOR International Conference on the City (CITY2018)
| Dear Colleague, We are excited to announce The IAFOR International Conference on the City (CITY2018). This conference will be held July 13-15 in the fantastic city of Barcelona, Spain. We hope you can join us for this exceptional event. ***Conference Theme: "Fearful Futures: Cities in the Twenty-First Century" We have reached a moment in international history that is one of potential paradigm shift. It is a moment when a problematic, but at least blandly progressivist, pro-multiculturalist movement toward "cosmopolitanism" (as Kwame Anthony Appiah might use the term) is being threatened by a far more destructive and potentially genocidal ethno-nationalism, the ferocity of which is fuelled by economic disparity, religious intolerance and retrograde ideologies regarding gender, race and sexuality. In June 2017 an "International Municipalist Summit" was held in Barcelona under the banner "Fearless Cities". The summit brought together mayors and municipal representatives from across the world over three days. "Fearful Futures: Cities in the Twenty-First Century" must obviously deal with parallel paradigms of concern as the Barcelona summit. However, the very title of that summit has an undertow of optimism. "Fearful futures" signals a concern that the future/s awaiting inhabitants of cities, towns and villages across the world during the remainder of the twenty-first century may be plagued by problems that have remained unresolved in the first eighteen years of this century. What kind of future awaits young people and the children being born today? Can we turn our societies around to re/create urban areas that are not only sustainable but safe for all inhabitants regardless of race, religion, gender, sexuality and class? The challenge is enormous, perhaps impossible, and thus the future indeed fearful. This international and interdisciplinary conference will bring together a range of academics, independent researchers, artists and activists to explore the challenges that we face in our twenty-first-century cities. This conference will be held in parallel to The IAFOR International Conference on Global Studies 2018 (GLOBAL2018), and will provide a counter to the localised perspectives that can easily obscure the simple fact that many of the world's major cities have now become, more than ever, global portals and places of international exchange. Registration for either of these conferences will allow participants to attend sessions in the other. We invite academics from around the world to join us in the fascinating historical, cultural and artistic centre of Barcelona, to exchange ideas and participate in the continuing story of this city. In conjunction with our Global Partners, including the University of Barcelona, we look forward to extending you a warm welcome in 2018. – The CITY2018 Organising Committee (https://city.iafor.org/organising-committee/) Professor Emerita Sue Ballyn, University of Barcelona, Spain Dr Montserrat Camps Gasset, University of Barcelona, Spain Professor Donald E.
