FINAL CALL FOR ABSTRACTS - ISSEI CONFERENCE
ANKARA - August 2 - August 6, 2010

Maps of Dialogue - Spaces and Dimensions for the Integration of
Regional Cultures

This workshop aims at discussing the emergence of regional identities
and cultures - either in subnational or supranational scales - and the
roles they assume in the dynamics involving global, national and local
instances.

Although not restricted to such focus, it particularly intends to
examine the dimensions that favour the interaction of regional
spheres: from ways or landscapes as convergence of diversity - "routes
to roots", "the shortest distance between myriads of distinct
traditions", a collective of regional identities - to vectors like
media, science, language, literature, music, cinema, and many others.

And finally, it also has the objective of reflecting on the real or
imagined boundaries that shape regional cultures and identities in a
world of increasing mobility of people and ideas.

Abstracts must be submitted to Fernando Kuhn (swocean@hotmail.com)
until April 15, 2010.
