This is an open call for submissions from university students, faculty, and staff members. The organizers seek submissions of original work, experiences, and activities that are relevant to below, broadly conceived themes:
Learning approaches that cross geographies, content, and practices
Changing power dynamics around student activism and university governance
Universities as sites of intergroup contestation around social issues, including migration, free speech, inclusion, and more
Teaching about cultural connections and disconnects using aesthetics
Ideation about projects or learning networks among CEA partner universities
Other enactments around the theme of boundary crossings
Dedication of the conference The purpose of the conference is to explore contemporary issues around boundary crossing, as they relate to universities and learning, broadly conceived. This conference is dedicated to the memory of our colleague Professor L.H.M. “Lily” Ling, a founding member of the Critical Edge Alliance, who tragically passed away last year. The conference is designed in the spirit of Ling’s Silk Road Research Initiative, a research collective that pursued the re-imagination of world politics. As part of that work, students and faculty from The New School (New York, NY) organized in 2013 around a shared vision: to transform the foundation that underpins today’s international system by thinking creatively about world politics.
