[ecrea] Winter School Times and Spaces of Globalization: ‘‘Boundaries, borders and walls: what of universality?’’

This is a call for participation in the *Winter School Times and Spaces 
of Globalization* to be held in Padova, Italy, from 2oth to 24th 
February 2017.

The theme is ‘‘*/Boundaries, borders and walls: what of 
universality?/*’’ and it is organized by Next Generation Global Studies 
in collaboration with InteRGRace.

As we witness the re-emergence of physical, cultural and political 
structures of separation between countries, peoples and cultural 
experiences, the aim is to problematize different - general and 
particular - meanings of borders and walls: territorial, cultural, 
discursive, disciplinary; and to explore and reflect on their 
implications in terms of distinction, separation, fragmentation and 
challenges to universality.

The call is open to Master's and PhD students, as well as other 
interested individuals. A maximum of 20 participants will be admitted. 
The organizers aim to guarantee a diversity of participants on the basis 
of geo-cultural background, discipline of study and gender.

Participants from low income countries and economies in transition - 
particularly from Algeria, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Libya, Morocco, 
Palestinian territories, Syria, Tunisia - are eligible to apply for a 
Winter School scholarship 
<http://nextgenerationglobalstudies.eu/scholarships/>

There is no registration fee for the Winter School, but participants are 
expected to cover their own travel and accommodation costs. 5 
scholarships available. Further information and application form can be 
found here <http://nextgenerationglobalstudies.eu/2017-application-form/>

*The deadline for application is December 3, 2016*
