The Poetry and Poetry Studies area at the Mid-Atlantic Popular and American Culture Association (MAPACA) seeks creative and critical proposals for this year’s conference in Philadelphia from November 6-8, 2025.
The call for submissions for the next general issue (2026) of the Australasian Journal of Popular Culture (ISSN 20455852 , ONLINE ISSN 20455860) is now open. The deadline for submissions of full articles for consideration is August 31 2025.
The Journal is indexed in SCOPUS (among others), and its remit is broad and international, publishing innovative scholarly research about a broad range of popular culture topics. Articles should be between 5,000 and 7,000 words and referenced using the Harvard style system. All articles submitted should be original work and must not be under consideration by other publications.
In “The Art of Fiction” (1884), Henry James writes, “A novel is a living thing, all one and continuous, like every other organism, and in proportion as it lives will it be found, I think, that in each of the parts there is something of each of the other parts.” In the same essay, he conceives of the novel in geographical terms, cautioning that “The critic who over the close texture of a finished work will pretend to trace a geography of items will mark some frontiers as artificial ... as any that have been known to history.” James’s conception of the novel as a “living thing” inhabiting a physical landscape invites us to think about the writer and his work in terms of relationships between organisms and their environments.
The World Health Organisation (2022) states that universal access to sexual and reproductive healthcare, including abortion, ‘is central to both individual and community health, as well as the realization of human rights.’ International human rights bodies such as the Committee on Economic, Social, and Cultural Rights and the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination Against Women therefore recommend that governments decriminalise abortion and provide safe, timely, and legal access to services. The legalisation and provision of safe, evidence-based abortion services is important not only for avoiding unsafe abortion-related mortality, but for substantive, intersectional gender equality and the protection of many other rights.
The last decade of the Twentieth century witnessed a drastic shift from a ‘Bipolar’ to a ‘Unipolar’ world including the definition of the power politics and the diplomatic, economic and military status quo of the cold war era. Now the geographies of the globe had to shape the historical predictability, literary upsurges, socio-economic developments and psycho-cultural practices within the communities including the entire ecosystem of the various ecosophical narratives of climate change. In this context, ‘Geopolitics’ proved to the most apt term that invokes many things simultaneously. Political tussle and dominance is the most obvious meaning of the term that implicitly implies its global extent.
Writing about extinction is an aporetic coming together of our current geological reality and imagination that borders on speculation. It is an act that opens up the ecological, the ontological, and simultaneously interrogates the disappearance of humans from the planetary scene. The space of imagination imagining its own annihilation is a precarious zone for the writer, one that also discharges a kind of nervousness for the reader. The crisis facing us now is how to disentangle extinction as a kind of placelessness, as empty space beyond time. How do we, as a species on the edge of the Sixth Mass Extinction, make sense of Rosi Braidotti’s statement, “‘We’ are in this together, but We are not one and the same”?

Democratisation of Space: The decline of the public and rise of the private?
History is horrifying. For horror creators in the twenty-first century, the terrors of the past have become central to the genre’s regeneration. The increasing diversity of who writes and creates horror has been tightly connected to the genre’s ability to depict otherwise occluded historical terrors. Critics have taken on horror’s relation of past and present as different subgenera, from what Sheri-Marie Harrison calls “the new Black Gothic” to Patricia Stuelke’s “anticapitalist feminist horror.”
An urgent focus on ecocriticism in the humanities has developed in parallel to increased cultural engagement with folklore studies, particularly as such areas relate to the relationships between human communities and ecosystems. The application of folklore studies in ecocriticism facilitates the incorporation of previously marginalized perspectives and identities in order to speak to a global reality, building on the 'past' while responding to potential, and potentially unstable, 'futures'.

This panel explores how Latin American comics represent popular spiritualities, racialized bodies, and subaltern knowledge as forms of symbolic regeneration, resistance, and collective healing. Proposals are accepted in Spanish, Portuguese, or English. Those that particularly highlight subaltern religious, racial, and cultural traditions from the Global South and historically marginalized spiritual experiences will be especially valued. See complete description and submit an abstract here: https://cfplist.com/nemla/Home/S/21924
This seminar explores how structural and symbolic violence operate against marginalized bodies as mechanisms of control and exclusion within the contemporary global order, with particular attention to the Latin American context. From militarized borders and detention centers to the necropolitics of neoliberal disposability, violence is not only physical but also institutional, epistemic, and economic.

Special Issue: Ecocriticism: Old and New Challenges
The notion of “wellness” as it pertains to university contexts has taken on a problematic valence over the years. Owing to the increasing neoliberalization of academia, wellness has been increasingly tied to pop psychology, self-care spending, pizza parties, and other “self-actualizing” capitalistic practices. By virtue of the precarious nature of their status and labour, graduate students in the university are especially susceptible to experiences of overwork, exploitation, burnout, poor well-being, and existential harm, with studies showing that nearly 40% of graduate students globally experienced symptoms of anxiety, depression, or suicide ideation.

This roundtable hopes to bring together faculty and administrators with a vision to invigorate humanities programs. Its goal is twofold: (1) to provide a platform for sharing innovative strategies to enhance collaboration across traditional academic units; and (2) to critically discuss efforts that have led to new successes in (re)generating full-time faculty satisfaction in teaching, research, and service. Such efforts may include valued practices in co-teaching, faculty residency programs, Interdisciplinary Studies programs, joint appointments, and visiting professorships.
