Crossing Boundaries in the Americas: Dynamics of Change in Politics, Culture, and Media<\/strong><\/p>\n

Mass migration, accelerated urbanization, and the processes of transnational economic integration are profoundly challenging the social and cultural constitution of the Americas in the New Millennium. In viewof thesedynamics of change, it has been argued that the sovereignty of the \u201cnation-\u00ad\u2010state\u201d is an outdated concept. The gradual decline of the geopolitical hegemony of the U.S. is also changing the ways in which influence is negotiated regionally, as new global players from the South\u2014such as Brazil\u2014are gaining power. <\/p>\n

The political landscape in the Americas is subject to contradictory dynamics. The new Latin American left has entered a phase of consolidation, while\u2014at the same time\u2014 there is also a recent shift to the right with a revival of nationalist and fundamentalist discourses in many countries. New social movementsaffect the political systems across borders and, with the crisis of multiculturalism, the postcolonial legacy with its ethnic or racial boundaries eroding and transforming. The cultural and linguistic contact zones of borderlands and diasporas have become laboratories of hybrid cultures and post-\u00ad\u2010 or plurinational citizenship. The cultural flows of media industries which traverse the Americas in diverse directions, albeit in an asymmetrical manner, have a deep impact on how people imagine the communities they feel to belong to in North and South, as well as transversally. <\/p>\n

Although there is still a wide digital gap, especially with regard to Latin America, the global interconnectedness of the World Wide Web is changing the ways in which people participate in local, national,
\nan transnational communities, preserve their cultural roots, and use new forms of expression. The second bi-\u00ad\u2010annual conference of the International Association of Inter-\u00ad\u2010 American Studies, to be held at the Centro Universitario de Ciencias Sociales y Humanidades de la Universidad de Guadalajara in collaboration with the Centro de Investigaci\u00f3n sobre Am\u00e9rica del Norte de la Universidad Nacional Aut\u00f3noma de M\u00e9xico, provides a forum for a dialogue across disciplinary and cultural boundaries on matters related to the dynamics of change in society, politics, economy, culture, and media. Scholars are invited to propose presentations and panels on a wide variety of , including:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Transnational mediascapes
\n\u2022 Transnational social movements
\n\u2022 Literature, film, and music in the contact zones
\n\u2022 Border discourse and violence
\n\u2022 Transnational trafficking of people, goods, and ideas
\n\u2022 Mobilizing identities: Translocal and transnational communities
\n\u2022 Geopolitical transformations and changes in the political landscape
\n\u2022 Theoretical and disciplinary implications<\/p>\n

Please send individual proposals of papers (deadline: September 30, 2011) or panels with chairperson and 3-5 presentations (deadline: October 31, 2011) to congreso.ias.12@gmail.com<\/strong> including name, title of presentation, abstract (200-400 words) and e-mail addresses.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
