*Thinking with imposters*
<br>
<br>The figure of the imposter seems to stir a captivating combination of
<br>societal responses ranging from intrigue to suspicion and horror. What
<br>insights can these shadowy figures provide into the social relations and
<br>cultural forms in the communities and social settings in which they emerge?
<br>How might ‘thinking with imposters’ be a useful tool of analysis in the
<br>social sciences and humanities?
<br>
<br>The proposed edited volume collects contributions that explore practices of
<br>‘impostering’, that is, situations in which the imposter is staged as a
<br>reality or possibility in everyday interactions, policy, or technology, as
<br>well as in fiction, art and film. (For more see attached CFP.)
