> >> Subjectivity: International Conference in Critical Psychology,
> >> Cultural Studies and Social Theory
> >>
> >> Starts: 27 June 2008
> >> Ends: 29 June 2008
> >>
> >> This conference explores shifting conceptualisations of
> >> subjectivity in contemporary culture, politics, social science and
> >> theory. Although subjectivity is a key analytic term in fields as
> >> diverse as critical psychology, postcolonial studies, film theory,
> >> gender studies, social theory, geography, anthropology and cultural
> >> studies, it is rarely discussed in its own right. The conference
> >> attempts to explore subjectivity as a locus of social change, to
> >> rethink possibilities for everyday social interventions, to explore
> >> how subjectivities are produced and how emerging subjectivities
> >> remake our social worlds. We are interested in proposals for papers
> >> and symposia whose scope falls within or between one of the
> >> following areas:
> >>
> >>
> >> Embodiment, Affect, Materiality
> >>
> >> The emergence of 'body-theory' across the humanities has
> >> transformed the terrain in which questions about power, ideology,
> >> discourse and subjectivity can be asked. There is a move to
> >> dismantle the idea of separation between the body and the world and
> >> to see bodies as always gesturing towards practices, energies,
> >> things and intensities beyond themselves. This focus on process,
> >> connection, relationality and bodily affectivity traverses a
> >> diverse range of disciplines and is forcing a reconsideration of
> >> our understanding of subjectivity. In this stream we welcome papers
> >> that might deal with areas such as 'carnal knowing', the sentient
> >> body, embodiment, critical perspectives on cyberculture and the
> >> machine-human symbiosis, new materialism, affective labour and
> >> care, disability and the critiques of the 'able body', somatic feeling
and the non-cognitive, for example.
> >>
> >>
> >> New Political Subjectivities / New Social Movements
> >>
> >> A developing body of scholarship examines the production of new
> >> subjectivities and social movements in a moment marked by
> >> neoliberalism, de/re-territorialising capitalism and emerging new
> >> sensibilities in relation to gender, sexuality, transnational
> >> mobility and racial and religious differences. What role are the
> >> media and new information and communication technologies playing in
> >> the production of new femininities, masculinities and sexualities -
> >> and resistance to them? What kinds of social movements are emerging
> >> to address global injustice related to the transformation of labour
> >> and the new conditions for the production of science and
> >> technology, biotech and medical rationalities? How adequately have
> >> our theoretical vocabularies engaged with new social, political and
> >> cultural complexities related to processes of racialization and
> >> migration?
> >> What new possibilities are there for interdisciplinary work that
> >> creates new spaces and dialogues, activism and interventions?
> >>
> >>
> >> Redistributing the Psychological
> >>
> >> For many years, critical psychologists and social theorists have
> >> attempted to move away from an individualist concept of the
> >> psychological. Some psychologists attempted to rework what was
> >> understood as on the inside to the outside through the concepts of
> >> discourse, activity and narrative; sociologists have attempted to
> >> understand what constitutes the psychological through exploring its
> >> position within the social and cultural lifeworld; social theorists
> >> have attempted to expand the concept beyond reductionist notions of
> >> the subject. While these attempts are all important, how successful
> >> are they? What is the future of critical studies of psychology and
> >> of the psychological? How can we develop work which goes beyond the
> >> psychological while still being able to accommodate and understand
> >> singularity and experience?
> >>
> >>
> >>
> >> *Please send a 200 word proposal to subjectivity@cardiff.ac.uk by
