CALL FOR PAPERS!
The NATSA 2015 conference, titled “Motions and the Motionless:
(Dis/Re-)Connecting Taiwan to the World,” endeavours to advance global
Taiwan studies by setting Taiwan in motion, both in theory and in practice.
To capture something of the dynamics and energies infused in Taiwanese
society, this conference draws on an expansive concept of motion through
which we hope to attract papers that explore and exploit the term’s
potentials and complexities. Over the past few years, those concerned with
Taiwan have witnessed it in the midst of a series of fervent social upheavals
of various kinds. These are both themselves social movements as well as
responses and reactions to a set of other larger streams of economic,
political, social, and cultural motions. As a set of islands historically
populated by waves of immigrants and impositions of power, however, Taiwan
has long been caught up in and composed of motion. The rich connotations of
the main theme of “motions” will serve as a catalyst propelling us to place
Taiwan in dialogue with the diverse geographical connections and historical
contexts around the island and across the globe.
This conference invites scholarly works informed by the notion of
motion
