Borderlines IV: Resisting, Persisting, Performing is the fourth annual 
interdisciplinary conference hosted by De Montfort University's 
Performance Research Group. With papers, presentations and performances 
from across Drama, Dance, Film, and Art History and Visual Culture, this 
conference investigates performance’s capacity to defiantly, if 
carefully, withstand and investigate the enforced construction or 
policing of borderlines. In so doing, it will engage with: bodily 
borders and resistance to ownership; exclusion, restriction and borders; 
enforced or resisted gendered borders; dynamics of power and navigating 
geographical, environmental and spatial borderlines; acting as resistant 
witness or revolutionary agent to the modulating or enforcing of 
borders; invisible borderlines and legislative structures; extending or 
troubling borders through technology or different media; impenetrable or 
porous borderlines between body and voice or text and action; 
transgressing disciplinary borderlines; reconfiguring / reviewing the 
borders between life and death; processes and techniques that create or 
dismantle borders.
