Graduate Conference\u00a0 In collaboration with the International Doctoral Network in\u00a0Women\u2019s and Gender History\u00a0and with the\u00a0Gender History Research Center\u00a0at the University of Naples\u00a0l’Orientale, the Department of History, the Gender Studies Group and the Doctoral Academy in Theory and Methods at the University of Vienna will convene a Graduate Conference on\u00a0Rethinking Gender.\u00a0The conference will be held from\u00a0September 4-7, 2016\u00a0in the castle of Drosendorf, located in a scenic Austrian town close to Vienna. The aim of the conference is to bring together graduate students of history who use gender theories as an important tool of their historical investigations.\u00a0 The category of gender is no longer confined to women\u2019s and gender studies, but has started to influence research and writing in a broad variety of fields: from international relations to environmental questions, from body politics to the governance of technology. Depending on the theoretical framework and the field of research, gender is used in very different ways: from a synonym for men and women to an analytical instrument, conceived either as performative, as relational or as intersectional.\u00a0 In this workshop we would like to explore the analytical potential of\u00a0gender\u00a0in historical research projects which are not mainly concerned with gender theory. We therefore especially invite applications from graduate students who use the concept of\u00a0gender\u00a0in one way or another to explore the history of power and institutions, economy and property transfer, family and social networks, communication and globalization, science, technology and knowledge. We expect you to discuss briefly your findings and focus on the impact that gender theory has on the development of your research design and your writing.<\/p>\n
The language\u00a0of the conference will be English.\u00a0Keynote speakers\u00a0will be announced.<\/p>\n
Each paper will be given one hour for presentation and discussion. The time for the presentation is limited to 20 minutes. The discussion will start with a substantial comment by a senior scholar and then open up to the entire group.\u00a0 Food and housing\u00a0will be provided by the organizing institutions. Unfortunately, we will not be able to cover travel expenses.\u00a0 Please submit proposals (500 words max) and CV (150 words max) in English by\u00a0April 30, 2016\u00a0to the following e-mail address:\u00a0birgit.aubrunner@univie.ac.at Acceptance notices will be sent by\u00a0May 23, 2016. Accepted papers must be sent in by\u00a0July 31, 2015.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Graduate Conference\u00a0 In collaboration with the International Doctoral Network in\u00a0Women\u2019s and Gender History\u00a0and with the\u00a0Gender History Research Center\u00a0at the University of Naples\u00a0l’Orientale, the Department of History, the Gender Studies Group and the Doctoral Academy in Theory and Methods at the University of Vienna will convene a Graduate Conference on\u00a0Rethinking Gender.\u00a0The conference will be held from\u00a0September […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":3693,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"categorie_personnage":[],"class_list":["post-4238","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-appels-contribution"],"translation":{"provider":"WPGlobus","version":"3.0.0","language":"gb","enabled_languages":["fr","gb"],"languages":{"fr":{"title":true,"content":true,"excerpt":false},"gb":{"title":false,"content":false,"excerpt":false}}},"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/siefar.org\/gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4238","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/siefar.org\/gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/siefar.org\/gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/siefar.org\/gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/siefar.org\/gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4238"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/siefar.org\/gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4238\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/siefar.org\/gb\/wp-json\/"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/siefar.org\/gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4238"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/siefar.org\/gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4238"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/siefar.org\/gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4238"},{"taxonomy":"categorie_personnage","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/siefar.org\/gb\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categorie_personnage?post=4238"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
