/*Inter: A European Cultural Studies Conference in Sweden 2007*/

/*Reminder: Call for papers*/

11-13 June 2007 the Advanced Cultural Studies Institute of Sweden
(ACSIS) will organise Inter: A European Cultural Studies Conference in
Sweden, in collaboration with the European branch of the Association for
Cultural Studies (ACS). The event will be located at the Louis De Geer
Congress and Concert Hall and the Linköping University campus in the
city of Norrköping, Sweden.

The conference theme inter is meant to summarise a series of challenges
and opportunities for cultural research, each of which will be in focus
one of the three days: spatial internationalisation with a focus on
European borders and links in political, economic, social and cultural
processes as well as in academic practice; temporal interepochality in
historical processes of culturalisation; and organisational
interdisciplinarity in cultural research. Plenary speakers include:
Regina Bendix, Tony Bennett, Georgina Born, Kirsten Drotner, Gerard
Delanty, Paul Gilroy, Annette Kuhn, Colin Mercer and Gerhard Schulze.

The conference aims to offer a broad picture of current cultural studies
in Europe. Paper proposals are thus not confined only to the plenary
themes mentioned above, but may cover any conceivable aspect of the
field, from ongoing empirical research to issues of theory, method or
research policy.

Participants are invited to submit paper abstracts, either of individual
papers or of papers relating to the open sessions available at
www.isak.liu.se/acsis/conference/conf2007. Paper abstracts are welcome
until 1 February 2007 for the open sessions or until 16 February 2007
for individual papers. Please send your abstract of no more than 150
words to the listed session organiser or to conference2007 at acsis.liu.se
