Continuity and Discontinuity in East–West Relationships

Call for Papers
Targu Mures, Romania, 25-26 May 2007

Organized by the Gheorghe Sincai Research Institute for Social Sciences
and the Humanities of the Romanian Academy, an international symposium on
the Continuity and Discontinuity in East–West Relationships will take
place in Targu Mures, Romania on 25-26 May 2007.

East-West cultural, political, economic relationships are registered
either as a continuous and positive interchange or in terms of West–East
power relations, stressing the binary representations in the discourse
about the Other together with the mental borderlines drawn on the symbolic
map of the world between the West and the East, between nations and
cultures, which are much more stable than the political ones. The
symposium intends to analyze East–West relationships in a balanced way,
with their continuities and discontinuities, which can cast light upon the
ongoing cooperation or conflicts.

The organizers invite papers for submission and welcome investigations
coming from a multitude of directions: history of international relations,
political history, comparative literature, comparative cultural studies,
post-colonial and intercultural studies, cultural anthropology and
ethnology, psycho-sociology, communication sciences, philosophy of mind,
literary history, history of the mentalities and the imaginary, history of
ideas and of intellectual trends.

Submitted abstracts should not exceed 150-250 words. Languages of the
symposium: Romanian, Eglish, French. More information is available at
icsu-ms.tripod.com/id15.html.
