Great Lakes Graduate Conference in Political Economy
Great Lakes Graduate Conference in Political Economy
State of Crisis / Crisis State:
Domination and Resistance in the Wake of Neoliberalism(s)
May 7-8, 2010
Carleton University, Ottawa
The neoliberal era has been characterized by the privatization of
public assets, the growth of a global division of labour, and the
development of flexible and highly mobile forms of capital
accumulation. Yet the intensification of this capitalist model since
the early 1970s has come to a head in the last year, and the world has
played witness to multiple global crises, including the worst economic
catastrophe since the great depression, the highest recorded
atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide, and the continuation of
seemingly unending conflicts in the Middle East and Afghanistan.
As such, we posit that a critical interrogation of the neoliberal
paradigm is in order. Do contemporary crises mark a break or rupture
with neoliberalism or are they an expression of its continuity and
retrenchment? Do the present crises of finance, ecology and justice
represent the culmination of the neoliberal era, or are they endemic
components of a renewable cycle of laissez-faire capitalism? Have we
seen the emergence of a new form of social organization continually
riddled with instability (the crisis state), or are we merely in a
temporary state of crisis?
The Great Lakes Graduate Conference in Political Economy is an
interdisciplinary, international meeting of graduate students
currently inviting submissions that broadly reflect and interrogate
these and other (dis)continuities. We welcome submissions that fit
within the broader tradition of political economy, though perhaps the
following themes may serve to orient contributions:
• The origins and early history of neoliberalism
• Periodization and theories of capitalist crisis
• The spatialization of crisis: urban neoliberalization and the
politics of scale
• The financialization of capital: subprime loans and the mortgage crisis
• The green economy and the ecological limits of capital
• Security, migration and citizenship
• Accumulation by dispossession and colonialism in neoliberal times
• Gender, privatization, and reproductive economies
• Labour unions, precarious employment and permanent exceptionalism
• Post-neoliberalism? Socialism in the twenty-first century
We welcome individual submissions as well as panel proposals. For
individual papers, please send an abstract of no more than 250 words;
for panel proposals send a 100 word panel abstract along with paper
abstracts of up to 250 words. Proposals can be submitted by email
until January 31, 2010 to greatlakes2010@gmail.com.
