Call For Papers: Culture, Environment and Eco-Politics

A One-Day Conference, University College Northampton, UK, 17th June, 2006

Proposals for 20-minute presentations or panels of three to four 
presenters are
invited for a conference on Culture, Environment and Eco-Politics to 
take place
at University College Northampton, UK, June 17th, 2006.

We are particularly interested in those areas where cultural and social 
analysis
encounters questions of ecological consciousness and 
environmentally-informed
political agency. We welcome proposals from a range of disciplines and 
interests
with a broadly-defined 'cultural' dimension. Issues for consideration might
include, but are not limited to:

*	Cultural studies, cultural politics and environmentalist agendas
*	Ecological pedagogies
*	Histories of environmentalism and environmentalist histories
*	Green readings: cultural texts and ecological consciousness
*	Modernity, postmodernity and environmentalism
*	Economy and ecology
*	Critiquing green critiques
*	Space, place and environment
*	Environmentalism and identities: race, class, gender, sexuality
*	Identifying green traditions
*	Social movements and ecological agency
*	Marxism, feminism and ecology

We will seek to publish a selection of papers presented at the conference.
Please send proposals and enquiries to David Wragg and Nick Heffernan at:
David.Wragg@northampton.ac.uk <mailto:David.Wragg@northampton.ac.uk>  and
Nick.Heffernan@northampton.ac.uk <mailto:Nick.Heffernan@northampton.ac.uk>
