| Titel | Reimagining Our Worlds from Below: Transnational Conversations on Resistance, Movements and Transformations. A Free Virtual SSSP Global Outreach Conference |
| Typ | Konferenz |
| Texte | The Covid-19 pandemic has made more evident persistent, systemic inequalities that are rooted in and shaped by ideological, economic, political, social, and cultural structures. However, there are other transnational concerns that exacerbate these inequalities, including dwindling natural resources, expanding conflicts, increasing authoritarianism, and widening wealth gaps. Amid all these, a deeper awareness of the damage of colonial and imperialistic histories are emerging, making obvious that Western/Euro/American-centric solutions are no longer viable, and are, in fact, sources of social problems.
In response to the challenges these inequalities pose, the Society for the Study of Social Problems (SSSP) is hosting a free virtual international conference. It aims to provide a platform for scholars, activists, practitioners, students, professionals, governmental entities, non-profit organizations, and civil society from all over the world to network, share experiences and learn from each other across boundaries---as we reimagine forms of resistance, movements, and solutions to the unconscionable historic and existential challenges we face on our planet. We heartily invite you to join the conversation. Participation from the Global South is especially encouraged.
More information and the call for papers will be available soon on our conference website.
Organized by the SSSP Transnational Initiatives Committee & Transnational Virtual Initiatives Committee
