[Commlist] cfp: Barcelona Conference on Arts, Media & Culture

BAMC2020
Call for Papers

Welcome to The Barcelona Conference on Arts, Media & Culture held at and 
in partnership with the University of Barcelona, September 17–20, 2020.


https://barcelona-amc.iafor.org/

IAFOR is very excited to be returning to the vibrant city of Barcelona, 
and continuing our relationship with the University. Barcelona is one of 
Europe’s most diverse and exciting cities, that has long been at the 
intersection of different cultures, religions, languages and peoples. 
Its rich intellectual and artistic traditions have made the city the 
home to writers, visionaries, artists and dissidents of all backgrounds. 
It continues to be a place where ideas and ideologies jostle for 
position, conservatism and change, a place of questioning and 
subversion; high, low, popular culture and counterculture. As a city it 
has embraced difference and been forced to embrace difference like few 
others, and its long history and its present attest to, and 
contextualise questions of independence, globalisation and belonging, as 
issues driven by regionalism, nationalism and ethnocentrism play out in 
the city’s political arenas.

Barcelona is therefore an excellent venue to explore the IAFOR2020 
conference theme of “Embracing Difference”, and this conference, held 
alongside a parallel event in Education, will invite scholars, academics 
and practitioners to come together from around the world to exchange 
ideas and invite research collaborations that will be all the richer for 
exploring, embracing and celebrating our differences.
Inspiring Global Research Collaborations

IAFOR's unique global platform facilitates discussion around specific 
subject areas, with the goal of generating new knowledge and 
understanding, forging and expanding new international, intercultural 
and interdisciplinary research networks and partnerships. We have no 
doubt that BAMC2020 will offer a remarkable opportunity for the sharing 
of research and best practice and for the meeting of people and ideas.

We look forward to seeing you in the vibrant, historic city of Barcelona!
