Conference Theme:
Social Change in Global Perspectives: Migration, Populism, Postcolonial Legacies, and the Language of Transformation
This conference is an opportunity to pause and reflect on the fast-changing path of our social world. We are living in a time when the ground beneath our societies is shifting politically, economically, culturally at a pace that challenges our ability to make sense of it all.
As Bourdieu (1977: 170) reminds us :
“Situations… call for an extraordinary discourse… capable of giving systematic expression to the gamut of extra-ordinary experiences… Because any language that can command attention is an ‘authorized language’, invested with the authority of a group, the things it designates are not simply expressed but also authorized and legitimated.”
We believe that diversity in perspectives augment our understanding of the surroundings and only by bringing together different ways of seeing can we gain a more comprehensive understanding of what we are living through. This gathering is about more than sharing academic knowledge. It is also about awakening using the tools of science, research, and reflection to ask what must be done collectively. Critiques are welcome, as are solutions. We invite contributions that not only examine the problems and challenges of our time but also imagine and design ways forward. This conference won't be limited to mere academic analyses. We ought to address current issues to reach a shared plan of action and we believe in a contested path to the solution: critiques are welcome as they may refine an action-oriented design. Mixing perspectives might be the bridge we need to close the gaps between disciplines, between communities, between ideals and realities. We are focussing on a multidisciplinary approach.
Submissions from all disciplines are welcome including: Anthropology, Humanities, Social sciences, Political science, Legal studies, International relations, Psychology, Philosophy, Communication, Journalism, Management, Business, and Economic studies.
This conference is an open invitation to assess our current reality and to explore the doors that could lead us closer to it. We welcome papers in English Language on themes such as:
• Migration and the politics of belonging
• Populism and political fragmentation
• Social psychological aspects of change and resistance
• Postcolonial and decolonial approaches to justice and recognition
• Legal and institutional responses to crisis
• The role of media and communication in shaping public life
• International relations in an age of instability
• Economic, managerial, and interdisciplinary approaches to transformation
• Any other related theme
Selected papers will be published in a Special Issue of the International Journal of Social Science Research and Review.
