The Graduate Program in International Relations, Universitas Gadjah Mada (UGM) is honored to host the 15th Popular Culture and World Politics Conference, which will be held on 19—22 November 2024, in Yogyakarta, Indonesia.
As the first to be convened in the Global South, PCWP v15 designs its program around the theme “Whose Popular Culture? Centering the Global Majority.” It wishes to engage with popular culture artifacts across the globe, with hopes that they shed light on the multitudinous interpretations of everyday world politics. Moreover, it invites everyone to critically reflect on the various aspects of power, identity and ideology at the center of studying popular culture and world politics.
Taking advantage of Yogyakarta’s proliferating art spaces, PCWP v15 offers a number of side events, (movie screenings, live music, city tours, etc.), in partnership with local communities. The IDR 650,000 (EUR 38) registration fee goes toward preparation of those side events, as well as lunch and snacks for the 4 days event. Reduced fee will be made available for students, early career scholars, and participants from the Global Majority. Abstracts must be submitted through ugm.id/PCWPv15 by 1 July 2024. We expect to get back to you on your abstracts by 20 July 2024, leaving you ample time to finalize your registration in September 2024 and make travel arrangements.
We look forward to an exciting and insightful gathering in Yogyakarta!
