The gender and ICT group is pleased to present the Call for papers for the V New Materialist conferences to be held in Barcelona the 25th and 26th of September, 2014. The title of the conference is “New Materialist Methodologies: Gender, Politics and the Digital”, and the deadline for proposals is the 1st of May.

These conferences are held under the ISCH Cost Action IS1307 named “New Materialism: Networking European Scholarship on ‘How Matter comes to Matter'”, and counts with Felicity Colman, Peta Hinton and Jussi Parikka as keynote lecturers. We are participating very actively in these conferences and are excited to engage with an emergent European scholarship so important for feminist theory and practice. Dealing with the reconfiguration of gender, politics and the digital, we hope to contribute not only to theoretical debates but also to possible methodologies and strategies in order to fight social oppressions and inequalities.

We invite everyone to assist or participate with a contribution. To find more information please visit this website.
