Call for Papers: "City/Energy Relations in Transformation"
On February 28-March 1 at European Humanities University in Vilnius, Lithuania, the Experimental Humanities Network co-sponsors the symposium
“City / Energy Relations in Transformation,"
examining the responses of actors from the nation-state, municipal, civil society, business, community, and cultural sector to the accelerated risks for multi-species habitats in Europe due to the intersection of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, environmental crisis, and ongoing energy transition.
Co-sponsors also include: Nordic Summer University, Laboratory of Critical Urbanism at European Humanities University, CityIndustries International Research Network, Centre for Interdisciplinary Regional Studies, ZIRS, at University Halle-Wittenberg, Department of Cultural Analysis at the University of Klagenfurt, LABLAB research and design think tank.
The symposium will focus on the visions and emerging infrastructural politics for energy generation, transmission, storage, and consumption, conceived and put into practice to tackle this triple-faceted fragility related to energy/society relations. The Symposium examines the impact of socio-political values and institutions on ongoing and anticipated transformations in the energy sector. It also reflects on the role of energy infrastructures and the interdependencies. The city in its connection to other spatial units is the central arena of this reciprocal process.
The Symposium welcomes spatial scholars and practitioners of various conceptual and applied orientations at all career stages, dealing with the topics of energy infrastructures and their socio-political dimensions. The Baltic Sea region is the primary focus, but presentations from other contexts are very welcome in order to build comparative perspectives.
The Symposium highlights, but is not limited to the following themes:
Fossil modernities
Energy in the industrial city
Emergent energy politics
Energy, landscapes, and cultural values
Crises of energy interdependencies
Energy populisms
Symposium organizers have a limited budget to cover participation expenses (travel, accommodation, and meals) of Symposium speakers. Applicants are encouraged to use their institutional funds, if available. Selected participants are to pay a NSU membership fee – 25 euros for participants with affiliation and 10 euros for self-employed participants.
