The Arcus Center for Social Justice Leadership at Kalamazoo College will hold its first conference to question–and complicate–the notion of borders. Called WITH\/OUT \u2013 \u00bfBORDERS?<\/a>, the gathering will use a “(un)conference” structure, says Lisa Brock<\/strong>, academic director of ACSJL. “We welcome proposals for papers, roundtables,think tanks, and workshops.” The deadline for proposals is January 15, 2014<\/strong>. “We are interested in creating conversations on emerging epistemologies, radical geographies, critical solidarities, and transgressive practices that transcend and theorize across disciplinary and academic \/activist borders,” says Brock. Topics include (but are not limited to) the following:<\/p>\n

The seemingly fixed and immutable character of national-state borders (often writ in blood based on conquest and war) that, in truth, are actually unsettled and contestable. How might we map this?<\/p>\n

Globalization\u2019s increasing commodification of ever more forms of human and natural activity and the concomitant rise of “new” borders (fences, checkpoints, restrictions, gates, walls, prisons, and policies and laws that put greed before need). Where are the critical solidarities being developed?<\/p>\n

The challenges to gender borders and the re-inscription of race and class divides. Where are the radical transgressions today?<\/p>\n

The effect two changes–old borders under review and new borders in flux–on pedagogy, disciplines, nationalist paradigms, and social justice in education. What are the emergent 21st century epistemologies?<\/p>\n

The conference will take place September 25 through September 28, 2014<\/strong>, at the ACSJL on the K campus. Proposals should be sent (by January 15<\/strong>) to Karla.Aguilar@kzoo.edu<\/a>. Address queries to Arcus.Center@kzoo.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
