Extreme Right Transnational: Towards a New Post-War History

updated: 
Monday, January 6, 2025 - 3:17pm
Maximilian Mosbacher (Department of Contemporary History, University of Fribourg)
deadline for submissions: 
Saturday, March 1, 2025

For a long time, historians showed limited interest in studying the history of the extreme right after 1945. In recent years, however, there has been a significant upsurge in the research on this topic. The rise of extreme-right movements and political parties has spurred numerous research projects, especially in Germany. These projects explore not only the aftermath of National Socialism, but also the emergence of a so-called New Right within the framework of democratic societies. Similar research initiatives have also gained momentum in countries such as France, Italy, Austria, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, reflecting the growing influence of the extreme right across Europe.

4S Open Panel: (Un/Re)Making Gendered Platforms

updated: 
Monday, January 6, 2025 - 3:14pm
Society for Social Studies of Science
deadline for submissions: 
Friday, January 31, 2025

Digital platforms have never been a gender-neutral space, not only in the sense that they bring different experiences to people of different gender identities, but also because it has been structured in gendered ways—no matter it’s the gender imbalance existing in technology design teams, the gender-specific target audience segmentation, or third-parties’ involvement in reinforcing gender norms. Its gendered structures have also been further complicated by users’ actions.  Instead of accepting gendered platforms as a default design, we encourage presentations to think of platforms as a cultural form that embodies larger social and political structures.

“The Uncanny in Language, Literature and Culture”
International Conference

Malta/Online: 22-23 August 2025
Deadline for proposals: 20 March 2025
Conference website: https://uncanny.lcir.co.uk

The uncanny captures the unsettling and the eerie—a feeling that defies boundaries between the familiar and the strange. Rooted in Freud’s exploration, the uncanny reveals how what is known and intimate can suddenly become alien, evoking dread and unease. Everyday objects, spaces, and experiences that once offered comfort transform into symbols of danger, disrupting not only our external environments but also the landscapes of our inner selves.

Food is a basic foundation of culture and society, it is vital to our health and well-being and it plays a significant role in our everyday creative engagement with nature. The shifts in activities surrounding food acquisition, preparation and consumption are not only essential for learning a culinary tradition but for examining a broader societal change.

International Conference on Money, Markets and Meaning
London/Online: 19-20 July 2025
Deadline for proposals: 15 April 2025
Conference website: https://money.lcir.co.uk

Money holds immense power — not just as a medium of exchange but as a cultural symbol, a psychological force, and a social construct. How do we ascribe meaning to money, and how does it shape our identities, relationships and values? What narratives and myths surround its use, accumulation and distribution? From its role in consumer culture to its depiction in literature, art and media, money permeates every aspect of human life, embodying ideals of wealth, power and morality.

Deadline for proposals: 20 January 2025
Conference website: https://genderstudies.lcir.co.uk

This conference aims at exploring motherhood and its diverse cultural representations, while interrogating the ways in which such representations impact on individual and collective experiences of motherhood. Thus, we attempt at examining motherhood both as a personal experience and as an institution, as well as observing the nuances involved in the interaction between both.

Deep Time in Irish Literature, Culture, Media, and the Arts

In considering the ecocritical urgency of Irish texts, past and present—including characters such as the geographer-protagonist of Caoilinn Hughes’s 2024 novel The Alternatives—we invite papers that consider deep time and its uses in Irish literature, culture, media, and the arts. Topics across genres and time periods may include the human and nonhuman, periodization and cosmic/ancestral time, Irish legend and folklore in deep time, traditions of prehistory, seeds, agriculture, stones, gems, the bog and bog bodies, fossils, climate change, and the anthropocene.

Hotels, Motels and Inns : Transient Spaces of Hospitality in English-Speaking Cultures

updated: 
Thursday, January 2, 2025 - 8:51pm
University of Toulouse, France
deadline for submissions: 
Monday, January 20, 2025

The “Hotels, Inns and Motels” International Conference in Toulouse invites scholars to reflect upon the way places of temporary hospitality have structured space and displacements in English-speaking countries and therefore reveal the stakes and forms of hospitality. From medieval inns to the motel chains dotting the endless US interstate landscapes, these spaces offer a temporary home to their dwellers, and perform commercial, social, political and symbolic functions that so far have not been studied thoroughly.

The aim of the conference is to explore how these places, and the people who designed them, work or live there, can reflect or create conceptions of hospitality that provide insight into a given society or a period.

NOVA University of Lisbon - School of Social Sciences and Humanities (NOVA FCSH) |

Campolide Campus - Colégio Almada Negreiros (25-27 September, 2025)

Concept Note

 

In recent decades, the term Global South has come to signify the distinctions between the industrialised nations of the “North” and the comparatively less developed nations of the “South.” The Global North-South designation, however, is not strictly geographical but instead reflects various geopolitical, economic, and ecological commonalities between countries.

The workshop aims to bring together researchers, practitioners, and domain experts to exchange knowledge, address challenges, and outline future directions for developing explainable, interpretable, and transparent AI systems. It focuses on advancing Explainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) by incorporating knowledge and semantics as core components. Contributions will address “demystifying the black-box” nature of AI and tailoring explanations to diverse user expertise levels, supporting equitable and fair decision-making for long-term sustainability. The workshop seeks to overcome the challenges of embedding semantic abstractions into intelligent information systems.
