Global Cultural Encounters: 

Representation, Discourse and Identity

12-13 December, 2023

CALL FOR PAPERS

Long after mass immigration came to a halt and national borders were drawn against migrant influxes, immigration and its concomitants (e.g., identity, national culture, autochthony, incompatible alien cultures, endangered local, national and European identities) still enjoy significant currency and remain central themes in electoral politics and mass political mobilization. As Euro-American societies increasingly transition into a postindustrial mode of capital accumulation and economic policies have long ceased to be divisive questions, political parties on the left and the right alike have harnessed immigration and its discontents to renovate their political discourses and exaggerate their partisan differences. Time and again the “identity question” has proved to be a viable self-refashioning tactic whereby otherwise cliched political discourses can adjust to the cultural realities of the post-mass immigration, post-industrial era. It has also hosted a curious conversion between liberal, leftist, right and ultra-right ideologies and has catapulted the questions of immigration, representation and cultural conflicts to the forefront of scholarly reflection.

Amidst changing identity dynamics and the incessant proclivity of host societies to draw identity lines and divide their body politic, despite the ongoing naturalization, the emergence of multiple-generation descendants of immigrants, and the increasing unification of world cultures under globalization, the central question for the cultural and social critic then becomes: Why has the tendency to categorize, essentialize, and bifurcate societies along absolutist identity lines which initiated colonial conquests persisted under late capitalism?   If, in the cultural logic of the global age, economies unite and cultures mesh in the process, why have the forces of cultural disjuncture persisted and those of overlap waned? On a broader scale, how does the rift which has determined East/West encounters since the early colonial era make itself manifest in today’s global cultural landscape? What are the recent articulations of this identitarian discourse in media, cinematography, literature, and performing arts? In the political arena, what are the manifestations of this identitarianism and how does it unify political opinions across the spectrum of party ideology?

This symposium seeks to bring together diverse scholarly perspectives to reflect on these essential questions. It aims to provide a platform for researchers and practitioners across a wide range of scholarly fields to present new research and launch a critical conversation that incorporates the conceptual nuances of the issues raised above. The symposium welcomes contributions that include, but are not limited to, the following topics:

·         National cultures and global markets.

·         The identity question and the role of the cultural critic.

·         Identity, representation, and/in discourse.

·         Identitarian discourse, media and cinematography.

·         Cross-cultural encounters / Global cultural landscape.

·         Neo-Orientalist ethnography and anthropology.

·         Marxist approaches to non-western societies.

·         Capitalism’s need for labor Vs. capitalism’s need for borders.

·         Redefining national and migrant identity in the post-mass immigration era.
