CFP:
How do we remember and represent our migration experiences? Who is involved in these processes? How does history remember these events? What helps migrants and societies to adapt? The significance of these and related questions have made their way into our daily lives\, from the refugee crisis to policy decisions\, individual psychotherapy to (re)building identities\, communities\, and memories. \;
\nDuring the conference\, we are going to turn our attention to processes that are integral to human experience: migration\, adaptation\, and memory. We are interested in all aspects of migration and adaptation\, in their individual and collective dimensions\, in the past and in the present-day world. We would like to examine the role of memory\, the processes of migrating and adapting to various dynamic life circumstances\, across time\, space\, culture\, language\, and discipline. \;
\nTherefore\, we strive to represent and discuss the crossroads of migration\, adaptation\, and memory in their multiple representations: psychological\, social\, historical\, cultural\, philosophical\, religious\, neurological\, organizational\, methodological\, economic\, political\, and many others. We will also devote considerable attention to how these phenomena appear and transform in artistic practices: literature\, film\, theatre\, and visual arts. This is why we invite researchers representing various academic disciplines: anthropology\, history\, psychiatry\, psychology\, psychoanalysis\, sociology\, politics\, philosophy\, economics\, law\, literary studies\, theatre studies\, film studies\, design\, project management\, memory studies\, migration studies\, consciousness studies\, dream studies\, gender studies\, postcolonial studies\, medical sciences\, cognitive sciences\, and urban studies\, to name a few. \;
\nDifferent forms of presentations are encouraged\, including case studies\, theoretical inquiries\, personal reflections\, problem-oriented arguments\, comparative analyses\, and creative expressions. \;
\nWe will be happy to hear from experienced scholars and young academics\, doctoral and graduate students\, as well as professionals from various disciplines. We also invite all persons interested in participating in the conference as listeners\, without giving a presentation. \;
\nPlease submit abstracts (no longer than 300 words) of your proposed 20-minute presentations\, together with a short biographical note to: \;migrationconference2023@gmail.com \;
