[Commlist] cfp: Helsinki Conference on Emotions, Populism and Polarisation (HEPP4) (Conference)

Thu Mar 30 21:20:36 GMT 2023





Helsinki, Finland

Date: 10/12/2023 - 12/12/2023
Call for papers ending on: 1/05/2023

In the recent years, HEPPsters have been engaging in themes of populist
mobilisation in Central and Eastern Europe, particularly the relationship
between time and space, and how this relationship informs the construction of
‘Us’. In the previous edition, HEPP3 paid special attention to Russia’s
invasion of Ukraine. In 2023, this theme is expanded to reflect on the rise
of ethno-nationalism. We are here also drawing on our Horizon2020 projecton
Deradicalisation in Europe and beyond, where the key thematic is social
exclusion as the driver for violent radicalisation, emergence of grievance,
alienation, and polarisation. We also want to investigate the emergence of
religious populism, the formation of epistemic communities, and logics of
datafied forms of communication that also deal with polarisation. We hopeto
incite theoretical and empirical discussions of these themes and more.

The Conference strives to assemble a wide range of international researchers
at all career stages, with the aim of examining populism, particularly from a
discursive and cultural approach. We welcome contributions from a wide range
of fields. All submitted papers will be considered for our Working Papers
series.
