Conference

// UNPOP INTERNATIONAL COLLOQUIUM

// Emotions, Narratives and Identities in Politics, Populism and Democracy

The UNPOP International Colloquium is a fully on-site (neither virtual nor hybrid) event in English (no simultaneous interpretation)

The UNPOP International Colloquium focuses on the role that emotions (and/or affects, passions, sentiments, feelings, moods, dispositions, and attitudes) and narratives (and/or discourses, framings, storytelling) play in forging socio-political identities and the impact that they have on political behaviour and democracy.

With this conference and exhibition we want to highlight how global hip hop practitioners and hip hop scholars remember, historicise and archive the culture locally. The exhibition will bring to light memorabilia, artefacts and images from the local Milton Keynes hip hop scene from the late 1980s to the mid 1990s. We will invite local breakers, graffiti artists, emcees, deejays, musicians and knowledge producers to showcase their art and culture and reflect on the past and the future of hip hop in Milton Keynes, in the United Kingdom and in the world.

KEYNOTES

Prof. Dr. Göran Eriksson, Örebro University

In recent years, HEPPsters have been engaging in themes of populist mobilisation in Central and Eastern Europe, particularly the relationship between time and space, and how this relationship informs the construction of ‘Us’. In the previous edition, HEPP3 paid special attention to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. In 2023, this theme is expanded to reflect on the rise of ethno-nationalism.

The Call for Abstracts for the 25th Warwick International Conference in Applied Linguistics (WICAL) is now open.

Abstract

This Section seeks to bring together scholars using critical text and discourse analytical approaches in the study of policy and politics. Section Chairs are particularly interested in exploring:

• how policies are constituted and contested

• how critical discourse approaches can enable better understanding of policy formation

• whether critical discourse approaches lead to better policy or better policy making processes

• how to approach to the role of ideology in critical discourse analysis.
