National Video Games: Cultures, Industries, Communities
international conference

10–12 September 2026
University of Warsaw, Poland

The end of history was cancelled years ago, and national ideas have been on the rise ever since. Game scholars, too, have been studying the relationships between national cultures, video games and game industries for about a decade. We now have a wealth of material about the game cultures of numerous different countries across the world; there are also publications that examine the national categorization of games itself.

For much of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, Italian Americans have occupied an uneasy position within U.S. racial, cultural, and national narratives—simultaneously marked as insiders and outsiders, assimilated and othered, white and not-quite-white. This call for papers invites scholars to revisit and re-theorize Italian American identity through the lens of Otherness, drawing on and expanding the concept of Italianità as articulated by Fred Gardaphé and Anthony Julian Tamburri.

In 1974, Françoise d’Eaubonne coined the term ecofeminism in Le féminisme ou la mort, foregrounding the intertwined domination of women and nature and calling for the liberation of both from systems of exploitation. Since its emergence, ecofeminism has inspired scholars and activists across disciplines and global contexts.

What roles do ‘hierarchy’ and ‘egality’, as values and practices, play in the everyday lives of South Asian traditions? Hierarchy as a value in the social life of Hinduism has been much discussed. Scholarship has tended to contrast a transhistorical Hindu hierarchy with egalitarian elements of Muslim, Christian, Buddhist and Sikh thought in South Asia, framing ubiquitous caste-like social forms among the latter traditions as anomalous. Yet careful studies of everyday life in the religious traditions of South Asia suggest that a far more heterogeneous set of social imaginaries and a far more complex entanglement of hierarchy and egality are, in fact, shaping the trajectory of both inter-caste and inter-religious relations and practices.

Frank Lloyd Wright began wintering in the Sonoran Desert in the late 1920s, where the region’s extreme climate and tectonic landscape shaped by sun, erosion, and wind profoundly influenced his thinking about architecture. How did Wright respond to the beautiful yet hostile desert environment?
