EGE UNIVERSITY 
15th INTERNATIONAL CULTURAL STUDIES SYMPOSIUM 
  
culture and space 
  
  
May 06-08, 2015  
Izmir, TURKEY 
  
  
Edward Soja in his book Postmodern Geographies says
that “We must be insistently aware of how space can be made to hide
consequences from us, how relations of power and discipline are inscribed into
the apparently innocent spatiality of social life, how human geographies become
filled with politics and ideology”. It is assumed that the spatiality of social
life is under the threat and disguise of authoritarian ideologies and practices
which may hide the realities of power relations on every level of space in a
given culture and society or between the countries of the world. “Space” in the
context of our symposium encompasses all sorts of
space/places/domains/geographies that human cultural practices directly or
indirectly share. The symposium seeks to explore all dialectics and realities
of space and culture. 
  
Since the nature of our symposium has traditionally
been cross/interdisciplinary, research and studies from all disciplines in the
social sciences along with relevant applied sciences are invited. We will have
a limited number of Turkish sessions for those who would prefer to present in
Turkish (no simultaneous translation will be available). 
  
We welcome proposals for individual papers, entire
sessions, presentations, performances, films, roundtables, workshops,
conversations or alternative formats, and topical issues including but not
limited to the suggested topics listed below.
