In a world marked by fluctuating borders, diverse identities, and global interconnectedness, the concepts of hospitality and hostility present complex meanings and challenges. This conference invites scholars and researchers to explore the diverse manifestations of hospitality and hostility across linguistics, literature, culture, social sciences, and political discourse. From acts of welcoming to experiences of exclusion, from cultural exchange to conflict, this theme highlights the delicate balance between openness and resistance, friendship and enmity, inclusion and exclusion.

2025 WAR AND MEDIA STUDIES GRADUATE STUDENT WRITING AWARD 

The War and Media Studies SIG is holding its annual graduate student writing award competition to showcase innovative work in the field by our graduate student members. We will again be partnering with the Sage journal Media, War & Conflictand the winning author will have the opportunity to be published in the journal in addition to receiving a $100 cash prize.  

This panel aims to provoke discussion of “trauma” and the critical paradigm that has grown up around it in our time. Especially since the publication of Cathy Caruth’s Unclaimed Experience in 1996, “the traumatic” has grown from a specialist analytic discourse to a catch-all framework that informs how we talk about everything from politics, to art, to personal relationships. In short, the concept of trauma today enjoys a culturally dominant status. In recent years, however, the narrative trope of trauma has served as a target for critics increasingly frustrated with its seeming omnipresence.

Space is not defined objectively, but in relation to bodies, as it is a manifestation of their needs, intentions, and desires. It is not a container in which objects exist but is intertwined with the body’s orientation in the world and its movements within the space. Human body, therefore, is at the centre of all spaces, which are more than a geometrical concept in abstraction. Individual bodies apprehend and appropriate space differently and give meaning to embedded systems and institutions through established and evolving associations. Any assumption of personalised space, whether private or public, is embedded with historical, cultural, and social meanings which help curate embodied experiences.

Deadline now extended to December 14, 2024.

[W]e need to contest this understanding of emotion as ‘the unthought’, just as we need to contest the assumption that ‘rational thought’ is unemotional…
