[ecrea] CFP Cultural Policy Studies Working Group

Sun Jan 19 01:05:33 GMT 2014




Call
for Papers: The Working Group for Cultural Policy Studies, Cultural
Studies Association

The
Working Group on Cultural Policy Studies of the Cultural Studies
Association would like to invite submissions for the 12th Annual
Meeting of the Cultural Studies Association (U.S.), to be held at the
University of Utah, Salt Lake City, May 29-31, 2014. Deadline for
Abstracts (500 words) is Feb. 10, 2014.

In
its sixth year as a division/Working Group of the Cultural Studies
Association, the Cultural Policy Studies Working Group welcomes a wide
range of papers addressing the nexus between culture and policy. In the
spirit of the CSA Conference theme “Ecologies: Relations of Culture,
Matter, and Power," the Working Group is especially interested in
papers that address the intersection of ecology and sustainability with
culture, policy, and law. However, any proposals dealing with cultural
policy studies broadly defined will be considered.

Along
with this standing, "open call", we invite papers to a panel on the
role of culture and policy in the sustainability of the university as
an institution. This panel will interrogate, complicate and intervene
in discourses of “disruption” and the (un)sustainability of the
university. Drawing on national trends, practices and discourses, paper
presentations will critically examine contemporary practices in
(higher) education in general and the university in particular. We
welcome papers that explore public and private discourses, ethnographic
studies, participant observations, critical media studies, and other
cultural studies approaches to the sustainable university. We also
welcome papers that discuss the limits of policy and the need for
direct action.

If
interested in participating in either Working Group-sponsored panel on
Cultural Policy Studies, please submit the following by Feb. 10, 2014:

a.
Your name, email address, department, and institutional affiliation.

b.
A 500-word (or less) abstract for the 20-minute paper proposed,
including a paper title.

c.
Audio-visual equipment needs (no requests for AV equipment can be
honored later).

d.
Note as to whether you are responding to the general call or the panel
on culture, policy, and the sustainability of the university.

Please
send all required information to the Chair of the Working Group on
Cultural Policy Studies: Sean Johnson Andrews at (sean.johnson.andrews /at/ gmail.com)
