CFP:

Today, the spaces and societies in which we live are infused with media and technology. Simultaneously, there are places and practices untouched and unaltered by the effects of technology - whether due to a lack of resources or a reactionary response to change. The questions this raises are boundless and interlinked. They are relevant across spaces, times and disciplines: architecture, urbanism, heritage, sociology, transport, business, education, politics and more.

In response to this scenario, SOCIETY. SPACES. SCREENS asks you to critique contemporary practice in your own discipline. It asks whether it has, or has not, been altered by advances in technologies and medias. For example, CAD involves new modes of design in architecture, while architects champion participatory planning. Urban data informs the management of cities, while the phenomenological experience of space is central to its use. Spatial computing brings disruptive change to public engagement and the 'democratic process'. At the same time, there are political forces rejecting a future of remote and absentee voting. Social media alters how we interact in spatial settings, yet reports daily on acts in physical space.

In every discipline then, technological advances find their analogue parallels. In exploring the interconnected questions we face today when critiquing the society and spaces in which we live from this perspective, this conference is open to various questions and welcomes contributions from across disciplines.

Twenty-Third International Conference on New Directions in the Humanities, University of Hawaii, Hilo, USA

Twenty-Third International Conference on New Directions in the Humanities, University of Hawaii, Hilo, USA
25th to 27th June 2025
Hilo, Hawaii, United States of America

SPECIAL FOCUS: Oceanic Journeys: Multicultural Approaches in the Humanities

The Twenty-Third International Conference on New Directions in the Humanities is a vibrant and inclusive gathering that unites scholars, researchers, and practitioners from diverse backgrounds. Hosted by the University of Hawaii at Hilo, this conference serves as a dynamic platform for scholarly exchange and collaboration. Participants converge to explore fresh perspectives, innovative practices, and interdisciplinary dialogues within the realm of humanities.

This year's theme "Oceanic Journeys: Multicultural Approaches in the Humanities" not only brings into focus the rich cultural tapestry of the Pacific region, but also celebrates the multifaceted narratives of all lands as oceans bind and connect us all on this planet. We invite scholars to embark on voyages across disciplinary, geographic and cultural boundaries with the following themes and beyond:

Critical Cultural Studies: In the context of oceanic journeys, critical cultural studies examine how cultural identities intersect, evolve, and adapt within the global expanse. This can also include exploration of indigenous knowledge, diaspora experiences and studies, the impact of globalization on local cultures, and the relationship of humanities to technology, the learning sciences, economics and knowledge domains.

Communication and Linguistics Studies: Language serves as a vessel for oceanic journeys - connecting distant shores, preserving oral traditions, and facilitating cross-cultural exchange. Investigating communication and human interactions, representation and expression through art, media, technology and design, linguistic diversity, language revitalization efforts, and the role of communication technologies in bridging communities are just some of the ways we honor the power of words and their ability to transcend borders and unite minds.

Literary Humanities: Literature has always been a vehicle for exploration and discovery. The literary ocean beckons us with tales of migration, resilience, and cultural hybridity. From ancient oral epics to contemporary novels, the literary ocean invites us to explore its depths of life and imagination through richly layered storytelling.

Civic, Political and Community Studies: From climate change to sovereignty struggles, oceanic communities grapple with tides of change that affect the entire planet. Civic engagement, human formations of families, institutions, organizations, states, societies and communities, human rights, and globalization become our compass, guiding us toward a more just, peaceful and resilient world.

Humanities Education: Education is a transformative voyage. We reflect on pedagogical approaches in the humanities and humanistic social sciences that include honoring Indigenous knowledge systems, integrating traditional practices and fostering intercultural understanding. How can humanistic education empower learners to navigate the vast ocean of ideas and currents of the 21st century?

The program features thoughtful, meaningful exploration, cultural exchange and a celebration of the oceanic journeys that shape our shared humanity. Join us as we set sail together on this scholarly voyage, charting a multicultural approach to the humanities towards intercultural understanding, one that transcends disciplinary, geographic and cultural boundaries.
