DESCRIPTION:<p>EXTENDED DEADLINE: JAN 8\, 2023</p>\n<p>CFA: Political Concepts Graduate Conference&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>New School for Social Research\, March 24-25\, 2023</p>\n<p>Political Concepts: A Critical Lexicon began as a multidisciplinary\, web-based journal in which an assemblage of contributions focused on a single concept with the express intention of re-situating its meaning in the field of political discourse. By reflecting on what has remained unquestioned or unthought in that concept\, this all-around collection of essays seeks to open pathways for another future&mdash\;one that is not already determined and ill-fated.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>From this forum for engaged scholarship\, a succession of academic conferences have sprung as a space for conversation and constructive debate\, including last year&rsquo\;s Political Concepts Graduate Conference. Organized by students of the Departments of Anthropology\, Philosophy\, and Politics at the New School for Social Research\, Political Concepts invites graduate students from all fields of study to participate in our upcoming graduate student conference in Spring 2023. Held at NSSR over March 24-5\, the conference will serve as a workshop of ideas on the multiplicity of powers\, structures\, problems\, and orientations that shape our collective life.</p>\n<p>Because Political Concepts does not predetermine what does or does not count as political\, the conference welcomes essays that fashion new political concepts or demonstrate how concepts deserve to be taken as politically significant. Papers should be dedicated to a single political concept\, like an encyclopedia entry\, but the analysis of the concept does not have to abide to traditional approaches. Some of the concepts contended with in last year&rsquo\;s vibrant conference included abolition\, survival\, statistics\, solitude\, resentment\, statistics\, dependence\, imaginary\, and solidarity. Other examples can be found in the published papers on thePolitical Concepts website.</p>\n<p>The conference will take the format of a series of panels across two days. Panels will contain two presenters whose papers are thematically and theoretically related &mdash\; creating a space for critical engagement between the authors\, as well as with other attendees. Each presenter will have 25 minutes to present their paper\, along with 40 minutes for discussion at the end. This year\, there will be a faculty roundtable with NSSR professors serving on the Political Concepts editorial board\, namely\, Ann Laura Stoler\, Jay M. Bernstein\, and Andreas Kalyvas.</p>\n<p>Abstracts should be no longer than 750 words in a pdf format\, and prepared for blind review\, so please ensure that your abstract is free from any identifying personal details. Abstracts must be submitted through the google form in the link below by January 8\, 2023 11.45pm EST. Any inquiries can be sent to politicalconceptsNSSR@gmail.com.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>Applicants must be advanced graduate students and their concept must be a central part of a longer-term project in order to be accepted. Results will be informed in January.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p>https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfyVC0H0LSpcyJ3QpcbAvZjEkcUYoS-TCp0kPc6ObTg4YFSiQ/viewform</p>
