CFP: Culture & Power 10th International Conference: Recycling Culture - IBACS (Iberian Association for Cultural Studies)
September 21-23, 2005
Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, Spain
Deadline April 30, 2005
Culture survives today by means of constant recycling, in an optimistic attempt to overcome its own decadence in the 21st century. This conference invites papers that address this topic from a variety of
positions within Cultural Studies. We welcome papers dealing specifically with issues including the following:
* trash culture and/or the trashing of culture
* reinventing identities
* recycled bodies
* cultural hybridity
* collage and pastiche
* cut’n’paste culture in the internet
* academic fashions and Cultural Studies theory
Completed papers (max. 2,500 words) should be sent by April 30 2005 to cg.cultureandpower@uab.es
Papers can be presented in any of the languages of the conference: English, Spanish and Portuguese. Participants are also invited to join the Iberian Association for Cultural Studies IBACS.
Registration and accommodation details and other information about the conference will soon be posted on the IBACS home page at http://www.fl.ul.pt/ibacs
