DESCRIPTION:<p><strong>Call for Papers &ndash\; A Special Issue of <em>Deleuze and Guattari Studies</em>\, &lsquo\;Crip Assemblages: Guattari\, Deleuze and Disability&rsquo\;</strong></p>\n<p><strong>General Details:</strong></p>\n<p>Journal:&nbsp\;<em>Deleuze and Guattari Studies</em></p>\n<p>Title: Crip Assemblages: Guattari\, Deleuze and Disability</p>\n<p>Guest Editor: Regn Pooley</p>\n<p>Contact: dgcripassemblages@gmail.com</p>\n<p>Deadline for Abstracts: August 1\, 2024</p>\n<p>Deadline for Papers: June 1\, 2025</p>\n<p><strong>Theme and Scope:</strong></p>\n<p>Despite the central place given to mental illness in the work of Deleuze and Guattari\, the broader implications that their systems have for understanding disability\, disabled subjectivity and ableism/disablism are relatively under-studied. In order to fill this gap\, this special issue is dedicated to the application of Guattarian and Deleuzian concepts to disability studies and crip theory.</p>\n<p>Contributions are welcome from researchers in all fields where Deleuze and Guattari&rsquo\;s ideas can be used to think about disability\, particularly from those who are disabled themselves. Due to his work at La Borde and his relative under-representation in scholarship\, Guattari is a specific focus of this special issue. However\, papers working within Deleuzian (or Deleuzo-Guattarian) frameworks are also welcome.</p>\n<p>Topics explored in this issue may include (but are not at all limited to) the following:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Theorising crip time through a Guattarian or Deleuzian lens (such as by applying the concepts of Chronos\, Ai&ocirc\;n and the syntheses)</li>\n<li>Conceptualising disability and its construction within the framework of assemblage theory</li>\n<li>Ecosophy/Guattari&rsquo\;s ecological thought and disability</li>\n<li>The application of faciality and a-signifying semiotics to understanding ableism and disablism</li>\n<li>The ontology of disability (particularly concerning the role of the actual and the virtual)</li>\n<li>Intersections between disability studies or crip theory and Deleuze and Guattari&rsquo\;s approach to mental illness</li>\n<li>The value of Deleuzo-Guattarian concepts in developing forms of resistance against ableist structures</li>\n<li>Thinking about disabled subjectivity with Guattari&rsquo\;s late work (i.e. <em>The Three Ecologies</em>\, <em>Schizoanalytic Cartographies</em> and <em>Chaosmosis</em>)</li>\n<li>The place of becoming in acquiring disabilities</li>\n<li>Disability\, labour and the socius</li>\n<li>Accessibility and its interconnections with smooth/striated space</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Using the email below\, authors are asked to submit abstracts before completed manuscripts to ensure their compatibility with the issue&rsquo\;s themes. Please send your abstracts by <strong>August 1\, 2024</strong>. They should be between 200&ndash\;300 words in length. Authors will be notified of acceptance or rejection by <strong>August 24\, 2024</strong>.
