Journal “Temas de Integração”
2026 – n.º 47
Launched in 1996, Revista Temas de Integração (RTI) was conceived as a forum for reflection on the newly established European Union and other regional integration movements that were then shaping a world marked by accelerated post–Cold War globalisation, in which citizenship and democracy assumed a central role. Now published digitally and in open access, RTI welcomes articles in English, French, Spanish, and Portuguese on the emergence, development, consolidation, and even contestation of regional integration spaces, approached from a range of disciplinary perspectives beyond law.

In light of challenges posed by the rapidly changing world, including the environmental crisis, accelerated digitalization, and the implementation of AI technologies, media researchers and intermedial scholars have increasingly turned their attention to questions of ecology, material processes, and nonhuman agency. This shift reflects a growing recognition of the need to reconsider and expand media-centred approaches and to engage critically with broader questions that extend beyond mediation itself.

The figure of the woman traveler has long occupied a distinctive place in the cultural imagination. At once celebrated and contested, she has been represented as explorer, observer, adventurer, ethnographer, journalist, tourist, and pilgrim—but nearly always an antidote to feminine domesticity.
We are currently seeking contributors from across the disciplines for a proposed collection of essays on “the woman traveler.” This volume will explore the enduring and evolving cultural figure across genres and media—from travel writing and photography to film, blogs, Instagram, and TikTok.

How can the disciplines of theatre, dance, and performance studies serve as an analytic for sport, generally, and American football, in particular?
Special Call for Book Chapters
We are pleased to announce a Special Call for Book Chapters for the forthcoming edited volume Beyond Pathology: Interdisciplinary Approaches to Dementia Studies in Humanities, which brings together interdisciplinary humanities scholarship that reconceptualises dementia through diverse representations of lived, narrated, and mediated experiences of the condition.
Deep Cut Magazine, an independent literary magazine, is seeking academic articles on horror for its inaugural issue, to be published December 2026. Academic work will be published alongside original fiction and reprints (by invitation) in an open-access electronic magazine.
While the focus must be on some element of horror as a genre, the scope of the call is purposefully broad: research may focus on literature, film, popular culture, gender studies, history, and more. Interdisciplinary approaches are strongly encouraged.
About the book: Human machine interfacing can be as simple as pressing a button or as complex and entangled (also entangling) as inserting a brain chip into the skull. science fiction. Humans with implants, prosthetic and hybrid humans with electronic and mechanical extensions are yet another level are no longer science fiction. Yet, human-machine interfacing has started long before the invention of these technologies. Machines did communicate with us and tell us about themselves even before chatbots were invented. The clanking of a hammer on the anvil tells us that it is old and dull. The whistle of a microwave tells us that dinner is ready. The process of interfacing is not a one-way process.
