SUMMARY:Call for Abstract and Panel Proposals: 5th ASLE/ASEAN Ecocritical Conference Theme of the Conference – Posthuman Southeast Asia
DESCRIPTION:Overview \nAs human actions continue to undermine the sustainability of Earth’s ecosystems and the stability of the planet as a whole\, posthumanism seeks to overcome the legacies of humanism by exploring from a non-anthropocentric perspective the ongoing entanglements of humans and nonhumans. A variety of approaches to the human\, the nonhuman\, the inhuman\, and the posthuman have been at the center of recent work in ecocriticism and across the environmental humanities. Many scholars view posthumanism as a paradigmatic change that is not only reconfiguring academic knowledge about naturecultures\, but also giving rise to new and unexpected ways of being-together in a more-than-human world. \nEcocritics and other scholars interested in Southeast Asia are also actively engaged in posthumanist inquiries. After all\, this is a region where humans and nonhumans have always been deeply entangled\, from the indigeneous and ancient traditions of animism to the variegated and blooming creativity of contemporary literature\, art\, music\, drama\, film\, and other media. \nIn this international conference\, we want to explore and discuss all these naturalcultural entanglements\, the various ways in which we can speak of a posthuman Southeast Asia. But we also hope to provide a forum where scholars\, researchers\, students\, writers\, artists\, and activists based or working on Southeast Asia may contribute to the global conversation on the posthumanities. \nYou can submit proposals for paper presentations (lasting no more than 20 minutes) on relevant topics\, including (but not limited to) \n\nPosthumanist theory and criticism\nAnthropocene\, Chthulucene\, Capitalocene\, etc.\nCritical animal and plant studies\nMultispecies environments and ethnologies\nNonhuman and hybrid agencies\nPosthuman ecopoetics\nBiosemiotics and interspecies communication\nEnvironmental philosophy and ethics beyond the human\nEnvironmental justice across species and other boundaries\nPostcolonial ecocriticism\nEcofeminism and queer posthumanisms\nMonsters\, cyborgs\, and other hybrids\nEco/bioart\, environmental film and drama\, and other ecomedia\nPosthuman and postnatural geographies\nIndigenous and traditional ecological knowledge\nNon-anthropocentric and unnatural writing\nPosthuman pedagogies\nNew materialisms and material ecocriticism\nToxic embodiment and environmental health\nDisability and posthumanism\nDystopia\, utopia\, and speculative futures\nTranshumanisms and human/machine interaction\n\nThe conference is hosted by the School of Liberal Arts\, Mae Fah Luang University\, and will be held onsite and online (hybrid format) at the university’s main campus in the province of Chiang Rai\, north of Thailand. However\, this format might have to be altered depending on the evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic. Any changes will be duly announced on this webpage and through the ASLE/ASEAN website. The official language of the conference is English\, but we will accept oral presentations in any ASEAN language as long as you provide us with a written translation of your paper into English ahead of the conference. \nIf you are interested in presenting a paper at the conference (onsite or online)\, please submit your abstract (max. 250 words) and a short bio note (max. 100 words) using the following link only (do not send it by email) \nIf you have any queries or you want to organize a special panel during the conference\, you can contact Dr Ignasi Ribó\, School of Liberal Arts\, Mae Fah Luang University\, via email (asleasean@mfu.ac.th). \nPlease click the link to read more information about the conference and submit the abstract and/or proposal. \nShare on FacebookTweetFollow usSave
