The Asian Conference on Cultural Studies 2017 (ACCS2017)
| Join us in Japan next spring for The Asian Conference on Cultural Studies 2017 (ACCS2017), June 1-4, 2017. ***ACCS2017 at a glance The Asian Conference on Cultural Studies 2017 (ACCS2017) will be held alongside The Asian Conference on Asian Studies (ACAS2017) and The IAFOR International Conference on Japan & Japan Studies (IICJ2017) in the beautiful and historic city of Kobe, Japan. Submit your abstract now to participate in this international, interdisciplinary and intercultural event. **Location: Art Center Kobe, Kobe, Japan **Dates: Thursday, June 1 to Sunday, June 4, 2017 **Abstract Submission Deadline: January 12, 2017 **Enquiries: accs@iafor.org SUBMIT AN ABSTRACT: iafor.org/accs2017-call-for-pa Already had your abstract accepted? Register now: iafor.org/accs2017-registratio To find out more about registration packages, presentation options, conference events and more, please visit the conference website: accs.iafor.org ------------- ***ACCS2017 Conference Theme: "Global Realities: Precarious Survival and Belonging" The theme for the Asian Conference on Cultural Studies 2014 in Osaka was "Borderlands of becoming, belonging and sharing". In his presentation, Conference Co-Chair Professor Baden Offord wrote "Gloria Anzaldua's idea of the borderland has become a critical conceptual rubric used by cultural researchers as a way of understanding, explaining and articulating the in-determined, vague, ambiguous nature of everyday life and the cultural politics of border-knowledge, border crossings, transgression, living in-between and multiple belongings. Borderlands is also about a social space where people of diverse backgrounds and identities meet and share a space in which the politics of co-presence and co-existence are experienced and enacted in mundane ways." Now we revisit that territory under the title "Global Realities: Precarious Survival and Belonging". While retaining the ideas expressed by Professor Offord in 2014, this conference will turn its focus on to the precariousness of life across the world, life being understood in all its amplitude. Since 2014 we have witnessed the horror of the refugee crisis in Europe and how borders which should have been crossed have been blocked off by barbed wire fences. The whole context of borders, belonging and survival has shifted resulting in an increase in racism, radical nationalisms, terrorism, infringements of human rights, and rising poverty levels, to mention only a few of the globalised problems confronting our world. The result of such precarity, even of the planet itself, has led to a generalised sense of communal and individual vulnerability. Raimond Gaita recently noted, "It is striking how often people now speak of 'a common humanity' in ethically inflected registers, or ethically resonant tones that express a fellowship of all the peoples of the earth, or sometimes the hope for such a fellowship." Hopefully, this conference will discuss the ways and means by which a "common humanity" may be aspired to by future generations. In conjunction with our global partners, we look forward to extending you a warm welcome in 2017. – The ACCS2017 Organising Committee (iafor.org/accs2017-committee) ------------- ***Programme **ACCS2017 Keynote and Featured Speakers include: Professor Gaurav Desai, University of Michigan, USA Dr Brian Daizen Victoria, Oxford Centre for Buddhist Studies, UK Shiki Tomimasu, Kamogawa Law Office, Japan Professor Emerita Sue Ballyn, Barcelona University, Spain Professor Donald E.
