CFP 'Doctoral Research, Inventive Inquiry and Making New Spaces' - Open Panel @EASST/4S Prague 2020
***Sincere apologies for cross-posting*** <br>- - <br> <br>Prae-Docs & Doctoral Researchers! <br> <br>Please consider contributing your work and energy to our Open Panel at the <br>EASST/4S Joint Conference in Prague 2020 (abstract below): <br> <br> <br>*Doctoral Research, Inventive Inquiry and Making New Spaces within and <br>beyond the Academy* <br> <br>We invite submissions by doctoral researchers eager to participate in <br>creating an open, creative and critical platform around early-career <br>research, and willing to explore the tension between inventive new <br>scholarship and its disciplinary pressures. <br> <br>*Deadline: Feb 29, 2020.* <br>*EASST/4S Prague 2020 - "Locating and Timing Matters: Significance and <br>Agency of STS in Emerging Worlds" - Prague, Czech Republic, August 18-21.* <br>*Submission Details:* <br>https://www.easst4s2020prague.org/call-for-papers-and-panels/ <br> <br> <br>If you have further questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us! <br> <br>Best wishes, <br>Jade V. Henry (Goldsmiths, University of London) <br>& Lisa Lehner (Cornell University) <br> <br>Jade: jade.henry@gold.ac.uk <br>Lisa: ll723@cornell.edu || @lmh_lehner <br> <br>- - - <br> <br>*50. DOCTORAL RESEARCH, INVENTIVE INQUIRY and MAKING NEW SPACES WITHIN and <br>BEYOND the ACADEMY* <br> <br>Amid concerns about the “neo-liberal university,” we see a surge in <br>studies <br>*about* early-career researchers and the precarity of career trajectories. <br>In turn, more and more special events, like pre-conferences and self-care <br>workshops, promise supportive settings *for* early-career academics. While <br>these developments are important, they do not always consider how <br>scholarship carried out *by* new scholars themselves might be working to <br>re-shape the academy. This panel seeks to foreground the agency of doctoral <br>researchers, as well as their particular constraints, by inviting them to <br>share how their practices resist, subvert and reconfigure the spaces where <br>scholarship comes to matter. <br> <br>We wish to offer a platform for “inventive” and critical doctoral inquiry <br>that generates “alternative ways of combining representation of, and <br>intervention in, social life” (Marres et al. 2018, 18), using e.g. art, <br>design, performance, activism, alternative methodologies and more. We <br>contend that this creative and active relationship with “the social” is <br>reflexive–that inventive research both transforms, and is transformed by, <br>its “objects” of study. Our panel asks: How do emerging researchers <br>“invent <br>the social” within the contemporary university and beyond? And, critically, <br>who bears the costs and/or consequences of such change? <br> <br>We invite doctoral students from all disciplines to present the <br>space-making potentialities of their inventive research, and collectively <br>forge a space of solidarity for early-career scholarship. We welcome all <br>presentation formats to explore how this emerging body of inventive work <br>might contribute to existing knowledge structures and also reconfigure the <br>spaces where scholarly careers are constituted. <br> <br>*Keywords: *early-career scholarship, research practices, inventive <br>research, higher education, alternative knowledge production <br> <br>*Categories: * <br>- STS and Social Justice/Social Movement <br>- Gender/Sexuality/Feminist STS <br>- Knowledge, Theory and Method <br> <br>-- <br>Lisa Lehner <br>PhD Candidate <br>Department of Science & Technology Studies <br>Cornell University <br> <br>*E* ll723@cornell.edu* | **Twitter *@lmh_lehner <br> <br>*Web* http://lisa-lehner.org <br>_______________________________________________ <br>EASST's Eurograd mailing list <br>Eurograd (at) lists.easst.net <br>Unsubscribe or edit subscription options: http://lists.easst.net/listinfo.cgi/eurograd-easst.net <br> <br>Meet us via https://twitter.com/STSeasst <br> <br>Report abuses of this list to Eurograd-owner@lists.easst.netview formatted text
