\nCall for Papers
\nThemes: The conference aims to inspire questioning regarding perceptions of &lsquo\;the human&rsquo\; &ndash\; whether perception leads to recognition and solidarity or to objectification. This designation 'human' can be used beyond the mere identification of a species to underwrite exploitation\, exclusion\, denigration\, dehumanization and demonization of what is then designated \;inhuman or nonhuman.
\n\nTopics can include\, but are not limited\, to:
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; the scientific/ medical/ psychiatric gaze
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; the psychopathological gaze
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; shame and the gaze of others
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; dehumanisation and demonization
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; violence/ torture
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; atypical social cognition
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; ideologies of exclusion- in-groups/ out-groups
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; interanimality
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; the inhuman gaze/ perceiving otherwise in aesthetics
