Association for Borderlands Studies World Conference 2018 – Call for Papers
After the success of the ABS 1st World Conference in 2014, The Association for
Borderlands Studies is most pleased to announce the second event in this truly
international conference series. The ABS 2nd World Conference is organized by
the Faculty of Historical and Cultural Studies at the University of Vienna and
hosted in Vienna and Budapest, 10th to 14th July 2018. On the occasion of the
100th anniversary of the dissolution of the Habsburg Empire, we invite
proposals for individual papers, posters, complete panels, podium discussions
and other interventions related to the interdisciplinary study of borders,
border areas and cross-border interaction. The organizing theme for this
Conference is:
Border-Making and its Consequences – interpreting evidence from the
“post-Colonial” and “post-Imperial” 20th Century
Borders and borderlands are again at the centre of debate regarding global
political, sociocultural, economic and environmental tensions and conflicts –
they also potentially offer spaces of negotiation and dialogue for their
resolution. Global history however testifies to the fact that borderlands have
frequently been a target of mistrust, precisely because they have been
perceived as threatening – as ambiguous spaces of identity, allegiance, and
historical memory. Attempts to eradicate borderlands have taken place through
armed conflict, the ideological creation of the Cold War and other
confrontational borders, the dismemberment of states, territorial shifts and,
most drastically, ethnic cleansing.
The post-imperial experience of Europe, for example, raises numerous questions
that relate to borders, identities and citizenship and, ultimately, migration.
The dissolution of multinational empires such as the Austro-Hungarian and the
Ottoman in the early 20th Century as well as the creation of new states and/or
borders in Western Europe, such as Ireland, which inspired other subjects of
colonial empires, were momentous historical events with far-reaching
consequences far beyond Europe. However, one of the lessons that emerge from
this experience is that nationalisms that insist on singular identities and
cultural homogeneity are permanent sources of conflict. Whereas borders and the
creation of new nation-states were considered a solution to war after WWI,
subsequent events and the disaster of WWII have proved otherwise.
On the other hand, visions of a borderless world and post-Cold War
“de-bordering” after the collapse of the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia were also
short-lived, a fact evidenced by the strong militarization of many borders
worldwide and the emerging of a border industrial complex in Europe, North
America, the Middle East and elsewhere. Borders and Borderlands are therefore
also central to understanding the consequences of security policies and the
control of mobility at the national, regional, and global levels: in terms of
perceived understandings of security, borders represent an interface between
domestic concerns and wider interstate and intercultural contexts. At the most
basic, borders serve to protect national societies from external threats, real
or imagined, while maintaining conditions for their economic sustainability.
Beyond this, however, the functions and social significance of borders not only
reflect the means in which security risks and challenges can be articulated and
acted upon but also ethical questions of considerable importance.
Globally, conflicts over borders and territories are quite common in the
post-colonial world, where bordering was a result of colonial policies ignoring
historical and socio-political contexts. Still, borders are regarded as marks
of national identity by state elites even in the post-colonial world, and any
dilution of this is strongly resisted resulting in increasingly securitised
borders also in the post-colonial world. At this conference, attention will be
centered on the historical and contemporary dynamics of border creation, border
management and border shifting, as well as the consequences of these practices
for the societies concerned. Borders delineate space, which both creates and
reproduces order. We seek to gain deeper insight into the similarities and
differences in the way borders are made around the world, as well as the forms
and functions borders fulfill throughout time. We will also explore ethical
questions that emerge from border politics and
border-making. On a more visionary note, ABS World will consider borders and
borderlands as spaces of encounter and plurality. Indeed, the possibility of
pluralism, not as a collection
of separate cultural realms as some could envision, but as a context where
shared commitments, and not necessarily shared values, could allow for more
inclusive understandings of community and more accommodating attitudes to
multiculturalism and migration. ABS World is open to contributions that
critically discuss consequences of border politics and
border-making. We particularly encourage papers that engage with the following
issues:
- Post-Colonial borders and post-Imperial borders: issues and challenges -
Transborder communities, regional identity and placemaking
- Cross-border regions in an era marked by resurgent nationalisms -
Cross-border cooperation and regional integration
- Cross-border environmental concerns, climate change
- Border related violence: militarization of borders, migration, crime
- Border economics
- The border-industrial complex
- Border urbanization and metropolization
- Border governance and institutions
- Right wing populism and the re-bordering of Europe
- End of History – return of Geopolitics?
- Identity politics, “United in Diversity” – internal bordering of societies
- Global capitalism and borders
- Borders and multiculturalism
- New borders at sea: access to raw materials
- Borders as a resource for political innovation
- Visual, cultural and artistic approaches towards borders and migration
Please submit your panel/podium discussion/other proposals online until the
15th of August; you do not have to include a final list of participants yet.
Submitting abstracts will be possible between August 21st and September 30th.
In case you want to participate in one of our special programs, please take
note that the deadlines may differ depending on the respective organizer.
You may also be required to submit your paper to the organizer for approval
before uploading it to the website.
