The Canadian Association of Cultural Studies invites proposals on all topics of relevance to cultural studies from both current and future members for its upcoming conference. The conference theme, Disruptions, encourages submissions devoted to exploring disruptions in and of culture. This may include papers that investigate intentional and unintentional, local and global disruptions of established systems or dominant orders; the potential of disruptions to engender shifts in cultural, social, economic, environmental, biopolitical, etc. conditions; forms of activism, social mobilization, and other collective/grassroots based disruptions. Of particular interest this year are papers that address disruptions of cultural ideologies, assumptions, and hegemonies around race, racial construction, and racialization in their various forms. We seek to generate discussion about disruptive cultures and practices. Are such disruptions destructive or productive? Cultural or countercultural? Brief or enduring? Do they stem from utopic or dystopic social and cultural visions? Do they produce new cultural forms or reify pre-existing ones? Are disruptions a normative dimension of culture? What are the ethics of disruptive practices? Who/what is affected when disruptions fail, backfire, or are appropriated? Do disruptive practices require privilege or address disenfranchisement?
