'4th Global Conference: Interculturalism, Meaning and Identity' udforsker den nye og væsentlige rolle, som kultur spiller i forhold til at skabe mening og identitet.
This multi-disciplinary project, part of the Diversity and Recognition research projects, which in turn belong to the "At the Interface" programmes of Inter-Disciplinary.net, seeks to explore the new and prominent place that the idea of culture has for the construction of meaning and identity, as well as the implications for social political membership in contemporary societies.
In particular the project will assess the larger context of major world transformations, for example, new forms of migration and the massive movements of people across the globe, as well as the impact and contribution of globalisation on tensions, conflicts and the sense of rootedness and belonging. Looking to encourage innovative trans-disciplinary dialogues, papers are invited from all disciplines, professions and vocations which struggle to understand what it means for people, the world over, to forge identities in rapidly changing national, social and cultural contexts.
Papers, workshops, presentations and pre-formed panels are invited on any of the following themes:
300-word abstracts should be submitted by 1 October 2010.

The Interculturalism, Meaning and Identity project is run by Inter-Disciplinary.net – a global network of people, projects, and events, which supports the exploration, development and publication of work that transcends traditional disciplinary boundaries.
