Europe and Europe in the World: The Politics of Belonging and Social Inclusion Mini-symposium at the 2015 Council for European Studies Annual Meeting https://ces.confex.com/ces/2015/webprogram/Symposium673.html Science Po, Paris, France * July 8-10, 2015 Organizers:
- Karen Farquharson, Associate Dean and Professor, Swinburne University, Australia
- Trica Danielle Keaton, Associate Professor, Vanderbilt University, USA
Description: Contemporary politics of belonging and questions of social inclusion remain central to some of the most difficult and enduring debates not only within Europe but also sites fundamentally affected by European imperialism, or what we refer to here as "Europe in the world." Multi-cultural and multi-ethnic differentiation and tensions, intersecting forms of exclusion, and multilateral contestations have come to operate as modalities of lived experience through which belonging continues to be constituted, embodied, inhabited, and transformed globally. Who belongs to a society, and on what are belonging and inclusion predicated? How have socio-cultural processes, varying technologies, and intersecting practices of social division and hierarchies articulated belonging and inclusion? Through this mini-symposium-comprised of two panels and a film screening-we explore from multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary perspectives these and other questions in a variety of contexts in Europe and regions fundamentally fashioned by European power, politics, and practices.
