Hello,
I would be most grateful if you could please circulate this CFP at EPSA
networks.
ECPS organises a three-day symposium on the interplay between populism
[1], religion, and civilizationism from local, national, transnational,
international and global perspectives. Evaluating their combined impact
on plural societies, intergroup relations, social cohesion [2] and
democratic institutions, the symposium will analyze how populists from
diverse cultural, geographical, and political contexts both in Global
North and Global South interact with and employ religion,
civilizationism and digital technologies in their discourses and
performances.
Themes include but are not limited to:
* Civilizational populism [1] in the Global South and the Global North
(proposals about situations in Sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia,
Indo-Pacific and Southeast Asia are particularly welcome).
* Digital technologies, including the use of AI, and civilizational
populism [1] (e.g., new opportunities to communicate and politically
mobilize and the implications for the future of civilizational populism
[1]).
* Local, national and transnational dynamics of civilizational
populism [1] and their policy implications.
* Impact of civilizational populism [1] on intergroup emotions of
different ethnoreligious and political groups in societies, social
cohesion [2] and civility.
* The impact of civilizational populism [1] in contexts of acute
intergroup conflict, including political violence and war.
* Authoritarianism [3], authoritarian state and non-state actors and
their modes of promotion of civilizational populism [1].
* Foreign policy, inter-state relations and civilizational populism
[1].
* Neo liberalism, market and civilizational populism [1].
TARGET AUDIENCE
Policymakers, academics, researchers, civil society organizations, and
practitioners in political science, sociology, international relations,
and public policy.
