    Species on the Move. Historical Perspectives on Invasive Species

    In this two-day workshop taking place on November 11-12 2024 in Zurich, we aim to historicise different perspectives on anthropogenic movements of animals and plants around the world. By integrating the lenses of the humanities and the natural sciences as well as insights of experts outside of academia who apply these considerations in their work, we will problematise the notion of ‘invasive species’ and explore the many ways humans and other biota have historically tried to deal with changing ecosystems. For the first day of this workshop, we encourage participants to submit papers that look at regionally ‘invasive species’ and animals and plants on the move in a historical perspective.

    Business Perspectives on Corporate Accountability for Human and Environmental Rights Violations

    The past twenty years have witnessed a multiplication of legislative initiatives, civil and criminal litigations, and concerted demands by social movements and NGOs across the world to hold economic actors accountable for human rights violations and environmental degradation. An important body of literature has examined these civil society mobilizations, and the ways governments envisage similar processes. Yet we know far less about the ways businesses understand their own rights and duties as legal persons, and their responsibilities as citizen. This conference aims to revisit the current academic scholarship on corporate accountability by providing a platform for socio-historical analysis of the variety of business actors and their (potentially fragmented and competing) ideas, strategies, and lines of action in terms of enhancing or undermining concrete responsibility for human rights violations and ecological degradation.

    Materials in the Anthropocene

    A Joint Science and Humanities Conference

    Since several decades, Earth sciences have been highlighting the enormity of the metabolic disturbances induced by mass productivism on the global scale. The conference will notably consider the materials of the Anthropocene from a “metabolic” perspective, i.e. one that looks at the cycles of transformation of matter within the planetary ensemble, and also includes the social, political and economic representations shaping them.

    African colonialism : Origins, development and modern challenges

    This call for paper explores the multifaceted nature of African nationalism, which encompasses historical, political, social, economic, cultural, and linguistic dimensions. It argues that scholarly research on this topic should adopt an interdisciplinary approach to fully grasp its complexity. African nationalism, rooted in colonialism, evolved as a response to internal and external factors, aiming for political independence and broader African unity. However, post-independence challenges in governance, economic development, cultural identity, and education persist. The call emphasizes the need for further interdisciplinary research to delve into the past, present, and future of African nationalism.

    The constellation of the anti-nuclear movement in Italy in the 1970s and 1980s

    The theme of anti-nuclear mobilizations has remained largely unexplored, despite contributions made by some of their protagonists and numerous studies on the 1970s and 1980s movements. Firstly, this special issue addresses this gap and aims to investigate the heterogeneous components in Italian society that have contributed to anti-nuclear mobilizations, highlighting their protagonists, ideas, and values. Secondly, it aims to offer an adequate contextualisation via an exploration of political and organisational ties of such movements, and tools and communication strategies they employed.

    Translation assessment: What is a good/bad translation in the new digitalized context?

    Evaluating translations is a multifaceted process crucial for ensuring linguistic accuracy and cultural relevance. It aims to assess the quality and effectiveness of translated content. High-quality translations facilitate effective communication fostering global relationships and understanding. Comprehensive analysis and comparison are involved to ensure that the translated text meets the desired standards of accuracy and fluency. On another side, various tools and methods can be employed to evaluate translations, ranging from automated software solutions to manual linguistic scrutiny or translation studies’ outcomes.

    Regenerative and restorative pedagogy: A transdisciplinary paradigm for planetary consciousness development

    If we want to do justice to the Earth and its inhabitants, we must uphold regenerative and restorative pedagogy grounded in ethical and critical values, such as social justice, caring ethics, eco-critical views, and critical digital pedagogy. We have already devoted scientific publications to concepts of regenerative and restorative pedagogical approaches, critical and ethical global and planetary consciousness. To explore them further, we invite authors from the Global South and Global North to critically reconsider the theoretical and methodological approaches of their disciplines, as well as their practical applications, from the perspective of regenerative and restorative paradigms. This involves stepping out of one's comfort zone to bring multiple theoretical and methodological perspectives into dialogue.

    The Atmospheres and Ambiences of Modernist Literature

    The figure of atmosphere has emerged with increasing prominence over the course of the last twenty years as a means of reconfiguring our ways of engaging with literary texts. We propose to embark on a rereading of modernist literature with a renewed attention to the atmospheres, ambiences, or Stimmungen that modernist works seem intensely engaged in. As we reread these works of modernist literature today in the era of what Bruno Latour calls our ongoing “ecological mutation,” perhaps we may learn to patiently attune our attention to what is in the background: the atmospheres and ambiences that make our world and our situations of reading what they are and what they may become. We welcome papers that engage with atmosphere/ambience in any imaginable form in the works of modernist literature in the Anglophone world from the marginal to the canonical.
