 International Symposium on '‘Hate speech at the crossroads of aggression, anxiety, and resonance: from linguistics to politics and beyond’'

Dear Colleagues, 

We are pleased to update the information regarding International Symposium on '‘Hate speech at the crossroads of aggression, anxiety, and resonance: from linguistics to politics and beyond’' which will be held from June 6-7th 2023 in Pamplona, Spain. We are honored to have Prof. Dr. Fabienne Baider, Prof. Dr. Victoria Guillén Nieto, Prof.Dr. Catarina Kinnvall and Prof. Dr. Umut Korkut as keynote speakers at our upcoming Symposium, with their in-person participation.

We have also extended the abstract submission deadline to 7th of May, 2023

The Symposium is organized by the Public Discourse Research Group at the Instituto Cultura y Sociedad (ICS), Universidad de Navarra, Spain. To facilitate the participation of researchers from different countries, the symposium will be in the form of a hybrid event, which will enable the researchers who are not able to travel for different reasons to present their work online, in addition to the in-person panels.  

It aims to create an interdisciplinary venue for discussion to explore more closely the relations between aggressively exclusionary discourses with a special focus on hate speech and perceptions of insecurity accompanied by feelings of anxiety and alienation. For details, please see the call at https://www.unav.edu/documents/2832169/30911341/call-for-papers-june-2023.pdf/

Those interested in participating should send a 300-word abstract to makkaracako@unav.es by 7 May 2023. The conference will be held in English and attendance is free. Certificates of attendance and participation will be provided.

If you have any questions regarding the organization or abstract submission, do not hesitate to contact us. 

Please feel free to pass on this invitation to any other potentially interested colleagues and students.
