A Generation On New Theories, Methodologies, Spatial Inquiries, and Research Directions with SWANA Youth

While considering the ongoing changes in the SWANA region, the conference has the ambition to lay the foundation for new research projects on youths that explore how the challenges and intersections within existing approaches can contribute to advancing research. We are looking to bring together researchers to consider the legacy of earlier youth mobilizations on today’s youth, whilst discussing new and emerging research which enables theoretical, methodological, and spatial ways of understanding the lived experiences and futures of young people in the region. We will examine the extent to which this category can be mobilized as an analytical tool in its own right, and we question its conceptual relevance, as well as its limits and its potential blind spots.

Constitutionalism Under Scrutiny: New Critical Voices

Workshop at the University of Oxford, Spring 2026

We invite scholars to contribute to a Special Issue or Symposium aimed at a top-ranking journal on the topic of opposition to constitutionalism. Constitutionalism is a global phenomenon, yet our understanding of its opposition outside North America is limited. Who if anyone is mobilising against it, and on what grounds? And is it confined to legal and academic circles? Is the opposition unified or fragmented? What precisely is contested, how (e.g. through legal mobilization, advocacy), and to what end and with what impact? We seek contributors who can innovate the theory and empirics of these consequential issues. Of special interest are contributions on opposition to constitutionalism in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and Russia, as well as in Europe and the USA.

On the Trail of the Bible of Niketas: A Transverse Approach to Catenae

Following the workshop “Negotiating Catenae and Catena Research” held at KU Leuven in June 2025, this second instalment aims to move beyond the traditional approach that considers catenae in isolation, book by biblical book. We find it relevant to adopt a cross-cutting perspective and to study catenae on different biblical books in conjunction.

We propose to explore how qualitative research can contribute to the development of a psychology of and for world-making.

Peripheral Archives in Africa and Eurasia (19th-20th century)

On 10 October 2025, we will bring together historians from Eurasia and Africa (19th and 20th centuries) to reflect on the concept of peripheral archives and how the production/preservation/use of archives located on the periphery or margins (geographical, political, global or national, family archives, village archives, non-state institutions, the Global South, etc.) informs the writing of history.

Conference, symposium - Representation

TACT (Touch, Arts, Affects)

The nostalgia for lost touch, like the utopian hopes for assistive touch, responds to haptic scenarios of comfort and consolation. What happens, however, when touch does not just alleviate but generate trouble? Can we complicate these curative narratives of touch by engaging with the frictions, failures and disputes of tactile experience? Drawing on the polysemy of trouble in critical theory, this conference proposes to interrogate haptic trouble as a site of sensory and social subversion, urging us to acknowledge the unresolved discontents of the haptic, to embrace its critical disturbances, and to test its emancipatory potentialities.

Circulations, Transfers, Reconfigurations. Cultural Dynamics of Creation: Across Time and Space

In a world characterized by constant exchanges of ideas, objects, images, and stories, questions about circulation and transfer are central to human and social sciences. These phenomena are not only modern; they have shaped cultural history from the earliest commercial and intellectual routes of the modern era to the digital networks of the 21st century. This workshop aims to provide an interdisciplinary space for reflection and a diachronic perspective on how forms, concepts, and viewpoints are expressed across space, language, gender, and eras.

Interdisciplinary Perspectives on Crisis

CONGIST’26

In the context of social sciences, crisis is broadly defined as a period of severe disruption or instability that challenges established structures, norms, or systems within societies. Crises can manifest in various forms—economic collapses, political upheavals, environmental disasters, technological shifts, wars, pandemics, climate or cultural conflicts. Historically, crises have always triggered societal change, which necessitate adaptation, reorganization, and innovation within communities. Throughout history, the impact of crises has been profound, shaping the trajectories of societies by prompting adaptation and transformation. Societies that fail to address crises effectively often face decline, while those that develop robust strategies can recover and evolve. Understanding crises within an interdisciplinary framework helps to reveal patterns, inform policies, and foster resilience in the face of contemporary and future challenges.

“Postcolonial Cultures Studies and Essays” journal

This is a call for articles or essays on historical, social or political issues in Commonwealth societies for issue no.4 of Postcolonial Cultures Studies and Essays. This issue will follow the SAES 2025 theme of “Transitions”. Articles are invited that consider political, social, economic, cultural or ecological transitions. This could include discussing transition to a greener future (for example in India, Australia, Canada…) or the climate crisis in particular countries. The theme could also cover political re-imaginings and desired transitions to a more postcolonial or decolonial standpoint as well as resistance to them. For instance, can the process of ‘transitional justice’ after the well-documented case of South Africa be observed in other countries?

Heritage dynamics in the urban peripheries

Heritage and the Metropolis

Metropolitan cities are well understood to be in the course of constant change. The city’s edges push ever outward into the suburbs or the hinterland. Heritage, on the other hand, certainly in the guide of preservation is often constructed as resistance to change; and yet is not static. The call is aimed at researchers interested in the relationship between heritage and the metropolis, between heritage preservation and urbanisation, in different geographical contexts. We want to compare situations observed in the North and South, in formerly industrialised and non-industrialised regions, in very active metropolises and others in decline.

Understanding and reconverting tertiary vacancy

The vacancy of tertiary buildings is a growing issue in urban and regional dynamics. While vacant offices are a visible symptom of economic, social and environmental mutations, they also represent an opportunity to rethink the role of business districts and the uses of the city as a whole. The aim is to analyse tertiary vacancy in France and Europe for identifying the potential for converting unoccupied buildings, whether into housing or other functions: coliving, hotels, industrial or commercial activities, data centres, living labs, collaborative spaces, etc.

Filipino Migration in Europe: Rethinking Transnationalism, Care, and the Politics of Everyday Life

We invite empirically grounded and theoretically engaged contributions addressing transnational families, gendered and racialized care regimes, religious solidarities, precarious legal statuses, as well as forms of engagement and everyday resistance.
