Cultural Studies Annual Meeting, "Beyond Disciplinarity: Interventions in Cultural Studies and the Arts"
May 23-26, 2013, Chicago, IL
Abstract deadline: Jan. 25 to Lbeutin@asc.upenn.edu
Beyond the familiar metrics of 'blood and treasure,' what does war cost? Contemporary American militarism is dominated by a fiduciary logic. The government establishes monetary values for lost limbs, injured brains, and disturbed psyches in assessing veterans' disability clams. In popular discourse and cultural production, veterans' sacrifices are figured as debts that every citizen owes. This sense of beholdenness may alternately inspire or inhibit anti-war protest or dissent. The notion of indebtedness generates particular forms of patriotism, and inflects practices of memorialization and remembrance.
Papers addressing the pioneering HBO show, attendant discussions and controversies, and/or related media exploring twenty-first century feminisms. 250-word abstract and short bio by 8 March 2013; Tahneer Oksman (toksman@gc.cuny.edu).
What contemporary uses can we make of Dada methods, techniques, innovations, and ideas? Should Dada inform our politics? Can it help to break us out of the postmodern ever-same, or is it the already-been-done, as Peter Bürger's Theory of the Avant-Garde might suggest? Where is the Dada apparatus today?
