Call for Papers
The Enkidu Summer
Conference, welcoming submissions from all branches of the social sciences,
humanities, as well as the arts, takes place every year in Mexico City with a
number of thematic subconferences throghout the Summer in other Mexican
cities. The primary focus of this inclusive and interdisciplinary annual
conference organized by Enkidu Magazine, a news agency specialized in Human
Rights, Culture, Gender, Sexualities and Society and the International
Society for Cultural History and Cultural Studies (CHiCS) in Mexico City is
to interrogate storytelling, memories and identity constructions from a wide
range of perspectives, and in their manifold cultural and social
manifestations.
The conference has developed into a unique
international academic forum for interpretative approaches in the humanities
and social sciences. The conference has traditionally also been a forum for
discussing creative historical and political memory, remembering and
forgetting of the past, as well as translations between cultures and
re-negotiations and re-constructions of cultural identities in one one way or
another.
The conference is organised into a large number of
thematic sessions and sub-conferences addressing several different issues.
The conference has an exceptional multilingual and multi-cultural approach,
typically bringing together participants from all over the world to share and
exchange their research, experiences and ideas in a truly multicultural,
multilingual and interdisciplinary academic environment.
CHICS' academic conferences are characterized by
traditional paper presentations in panel sessions with three speakers each,
followed by lively exchange, dialogue and interaction between speakers and
audience in many small groups, workshops and seminars rather than by formal
plenary sessions. Our conferences provide a forum for diverse voices from all
over the world, to come together and make connections across linguistic,
cultural and academic barriers.
The conference sessions are conducted in Castillian
and English. Occasionally, the conference also has sessions conducted in
German and French. Some sessions will be bilingual and conducted in both
languages with interpreters. Other sessions will be conducted in one of the
two conference languages, and the session moderator will give summaries of
the paper in the other language. Many sessions are being conducted with
interpreters for sign language (on request).
The conference also is a major cultural and artistic
event in Mexico and around the conference, several art exhibitions, theater
plays, concerts and book presentations take place.
