DESCRIPTION:<p><strong>Online journal&nbsp\;<em>continent</em>.<em>&nbsp\;</em>announces a Call for Papers.</strong></p>\n<p><em>Pedagogies of Disaster</em>&nbsp\;is organized to address the fate of relation and the future of pedagogical practice in the University\, and especially as it concerns the humanities.&nbsp\;We seek to address the infrastructural or interpersonal changes in the modes of production as it relates to current academia.&nbsp\;Through this conference we aim to examine the elements and spaces of the rifts opening up in the&nbsp\;<em>polis</em>&nbsp\;of the University&mdash\;its students\, professors and administrators.&nbsp\;Through two general\, though not mutually exclusive\, topics&mdash\;<em>Teaching</em>&nbsp\;and&nbsp\;<em>Being Taught</em>&mdash\;we desire to address the pedagogical horizon at a critical limit. We ask<em>&nbsp\;for whom or for what are we teaching</em>&nbsp\;and we ask&nbsp\;<em>from whom or from what are we learning?</em></p>\n<p>The organizers have chosen to forgo parallel sessions in order to promote a shared experience to develop sustained intellectual exchange as expressed by the&nbsp\;conference program. Opening and closing lectures will be given by Italian autonomist philosopher and media activist&nbsp\;Franco Berardi&nbsp\;and French poetry scholar&nbsp\;Judith Balso\, respectively.</p>\n<p>Accepted proposals will engage new propositions toward thinking the &ldquo\;academy&rdquo\; in regards to its state of existence and fact of its productions.&nbsp\;Considered proposals may engage themes such as:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>traumas:</strong>&nbsp\;being taught\, teaching\;&nbsp\;dissemination\, insemination</li>\n<li><strong>fragile relations:&nbsp\;</strong>risk\, responsibility\, love\;&nbsp\;honor\, nobility\, sub-alterity</li>\n<li><strong>accountability:&nbsp\;</strong>governance\, ministry\, office\; entitlement\;&nbsp\;contingent faculty</li>\n<li><strong>master and slave:&nbsp\;</strong>degrees of reason\;&nbsp\;faculty&nbsp\;<em>in absentia</em>\;&nbsp\;digitalization\, automation</li>\n<li><strong>obliteration:</strong>&nbsp\;physical and intellectual authenticity\;&nbsp\;teaching places</li>\n<li><strong>the impotent institution:&nbsp\;</strong>boredom\, disappointment\; fatigue\, diagnostics\;&nbsp\;oppression\, resistance</li>\n<li><strong>intellectual debt:&nbsp\;</strong>pay-back\;&nbsp\;allegiance\, loyalty\, fidelity</li>\n<li><strong>modes of production:&nbsp\;</strong>student as product\;&nbsp\;the university factory</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Those interested in submitting a proposal are kindly requested to send a 2 paragraph abstract and a short biography to vincent@continentcontinent.cc&nbsp\;<strong>before December 6\, 2012</strong>.</p>\n
