[csaa-forum] Conference CFP: 1st Global Conference: Revolt and Revolution

[James Arvanitakis]

It is with great pleasure we announce the 1st Global Conference on Revolt and Revolution to be held in Athens, Greece 4-6 November 2013.

Information

While contemporary nations pride themselves of their political stability, the reality is that our world is continuously experience revolt and revolution. From the events of the Arab Spring, to the anti-austerity street marches in Europe, the reactionary TEA Party in the United States and the progressive ‘No Borders’ global movement, the solidity that nations strive for is continuously been threatened.

It is within this frame that we are holding this first global conference to investigate contemporary and historical understandings of both revolt and revolution. The location of the conference, in Athens (Greece) is of particular significance in the recent turbulent years that has seen the economic, cultural and social revolution of the European Union emerge.

Information for the conference is available here: http://www.inter-disciplinary.net/probing-the-boundaries/hostility-and-violence/revolt-and-revolution/call-for-presentations/

Please note, the call for papers was due on 14 June 2013, but due to the number of requests received asking for an extension, we agreed to extend this CFP to no later than 21 June 2013.

Please do not hesitate to contact me for more information.

Best, james
