The Politics of Weird and the Weirdness of Politics
Online Conference
November 2, 2024
The vibe shift among the Democratic base since President Biden announced he would not seek reelection has been remarkable: apathy and anxiety have morphed into enthusiasm and a newfound pugnacious spirit. Stumping for Vice-President Kamala Harris, Minnesota governor Tim Walz, Harris’ vice-presidential pick, launched the verbal missile which has revitalized the campaign’s messaging and sought to define Republicans in succinct, yet devastating terms: they’re weird.
What do ‘caring’ and ‘taking care of’ mean? To what extent are ‘caring’ and ‘taking care of’ similar or different from a theoretical and practical point of view? In which contexts are they situated and to what extent do they depend on other contexts? In this conference, we will consider questions about ‘caring’ and ‘taking caring of’ – possibly connecting or differentiating them – in a broad sense, by opening a dialogue about their definitions in different disciplines and subjects, on their roles in various contexts with both humans and non-human actors, and on the way in which ‘caring’ and ‘taking caring of’ establish relationships with other features that define existence, the ordinary and the extraordinary facts of living.
“Whose global village?” asks Ramesh Srinivasan of the inequalities characteristic of “ubiquitous” computing in his eponymous 2017 book. The scholar reconstitutes Marshall McLuhan’s famed notion of a global village forged by telecommunications media in the shadow of the digital divide. Srinivasan’s question of how peoples othered by an infrastructure built for wealthy Western consumers might otherwise forge techno-community is only more urgent in the wake of a global pandemic; communications blackouts; and heavy reliance on conflict minerals. Yet, it is a question that artists have sought to answer since at least the mid-20th century.
The first International Conference on Globalisation in Languages, Education, Culture and Communication (GLECC2025) is going to be held 30-31 July, 2025, Manchester, UK. (https://glecc.org/2025/)
The past two decades have witnessed remarkable advancements in the studies into Education, Second and Foreign Languages, Translation and Interpreting, Cultural Studies, and Communication. This growth, evident in both the number of active researchers and the volume of scholarly throughput and outcomes, can be largely attributed to the forces of globalisation. Consequently, adopting the globalisation perspective is timely and provides a natural framework for connecting these diverse yet interlinked disciplines.

This roundtable titled Monster on the Hill: Decentering Whiteness in Contemporary Horror is interested in questions facing the Horror Genre in its new contemporary era. In the wake of “Black Horror” being deemed “America’s Most Powerful Cinematic Genre” by the New York Times, and the success of auteurs such as Jordan Peele, Nia Dacosta, Iris K. Shim, and more, we seek to think through what are the most important questions facing those reinventing the horror genre in ways that de-center a white western lens? How might we conceptualize horror as a genre that demands both solidarity and betrayal from its viewers, while unifying marginalized populations across the global south and north?

CFP: Medieval Intermedialities (Session ID: 6064)
International Congress on Medieval Studies
Kalamazoo, MI
May 8-10, 2025
In John Ford’s raucous tragicomedy, The Lover’s Melancholy (1628), the proto-psychiatrist Corax attempts an experimental treatment on his forlorn melancholic patients: he stages a masque – acted by the allegorical figures of psychic ailments, including Dotage, Phrenitis, Hypochondria, St. Vitus’ Dance, Hydrophobia (rabies), and Lycanthropia (the delusion that you’ve transformed into a wolf) – in order to shake his afflicted clients out of their melancholic funk. Pulling from Robert Burton’s massive tome, The Anatomy of Melancholy, Ford’s play showcases the sheer variety of madnesses – even within a subgenre such as “melancholy” – that were active, endemic, and of great dramatic interest in early modern England.
