AoIR FLASHPOINT SYMPOSIUM & SUMMER SCHOOL
SPECULATING AT THE END (?) OF TIMES
CALL FOR PAPERS
People interested in submitting their papers for roundtable discussion during June 16 and 17 are invited to send an extended abstract (1000 words max) to speculativesummerschool23@gmail.com by May 15th.
​
AoIR will be awarding a number of travel scholarships of up to €300. If you are interested in being considered for a travel scholarship, please note this in your submission by attaching a half-page letter of motivation stating why your financial situation should render you eligible for this. (Note that travel scholarships will be awarded as reimbursements for travel and/or accommodation costs. Receipts will be submitted to the AoIR treasurer after the event.)
Selected abstracts will be circulated among the participants by early June. Depending on the results we will consider publishing a selection of the papers as a special issue of an appropriate journal.
​
The call for papers is open and papers can be theoretical, empirical or both, any topic or theme is of interest as long as it is broadly connected to the overall question of imagining new interconnections of politics and technology in the scenario of the Anthropocene.
HOW TO PARTICIPATE
You can participate either by submitting a paper for the roundtable discussions of the 16th or 17th, or simply by auditing the workshop and taking part in the public discussions.
People who wish to participate as auditors (without submitting a paper) are asked to email an expression of interest to speculativesummerschool23@gmail.com by May 15.
If you want to submit a paper, follow the instructions to the left.
​
Acceptance will be communicated by June 1.
Thanks to our generous sponsors, the summer school is free of charge.
