Call For Papers: Comparative Empire: Conflict, Competition, and Cooperation, 1750-1914 - Global Nineteenth-Century Studies

 Creio que até um império luso-brasileiro, com capital no Rio de Janeiro, como imaginado, ou desejado por alguns estadistas luso-brasileiros (inclusive José Bonifácio e Hipólito da Costa) poderia entrar nessa iniciativa de estudos especiais sobre os impérios (nem citam Portugal ou Espanha).

Greetings Paulo Roberto Almeida,

Brazil, China and International Relations: Call for papers: Special issue of JANUS.NET, e-journal of International Relations

 Call for papers: Special issue of JANUS.NET, e-journal of International Relations (https://janusonline.autonoma.pt/en/)

  Francisco Leandro: fleandro@um.edu.mo (University of Macau) Kaian Lam: kaianlam@um.edu.mo (University of Macau) Yichao Li: liyichao@zjnu.edu.cn (Zhejiang Normal University)

 Special Issue 1: Brazil, China and International Relations

Submission of article ready for review by June 2024

Brazil is a major economy of Latin America that acts with increasing prominence on the global economic and political stage. Brazil has over 200 million people. It is a member of international groups as diverse as G20, Mercosur and BRICS. Brazil has diversified sectors and abundant natural resources. It continues to be a global leader in the export of agricultural commodities and present promising economic growth indicators. The country has also in recent decades managed to expand its industries and service sector, attracting both domestic and foreign investments. The political landscape of Brazil is a complex one. While the country has witnessed economic growth and social progress, it has also been confronted with major challenges related to social inequality, corruption and political trust. Against this background, JANUS.NET, e-journal of International Relations will be publishing a special issue that discusses Brazil in a greater context. It is hoped that this initiative will bring together experts and scholars interested in the Federative Republic of Brazil and its international forays, asking what the future holds for emerging partners hailing from as far

   as the People’s Republic of China. We call for:

• New approaches for the study of Brazil with a focus on world engagement preparedness

 o Novel epistemologies and conceptualizations that advance our knowledge of Brazil and its preparedness for engagement;

o Studies of Brazil that address “the modern international” using innovative and unconventional IR methods; o Up-to-date studies of Brazil by humanistic social sciences scholars that also pertain to “the modern

international”;

o Studies of Brazil that actively engage with the latest Global South, Feminist and Post-Humanist

epistemologies;

 • Studies on Brazil with a focus on Chinese presence, engagement and interests;

• Studies that highlight the knowledge produced in Brazil / the South Atlantic that is also applicable to our

understanding of Chinese action in the world;

• Studies that advance our understanding of Global China and its global engagement;

• Studies that put Asian Studies, Latin American Studies, Lusophone Studies and other area studies in

conversation;

• Historicized transcontinental studies of agency and identity that promote greater awareness of world

connectivity and interdependence;

 Scholars may use qualitative, quantitative and mixed method approaches. They may be interested in different subjects and based in different parts of the world. While we may expect greater interest from International Relations scholars, we are open also to submissions from other members of the learned community. They are expected to place Brazil and its connections with the outside world, especially Asian partners such as China, at the center of their analysis. It is hoped that the special issues will be published in December 2024.

Important notes:

 • The article should be written in good, scholarly English.

• Interested authors are welcome to discuss their ideas with the editors before they prepare their first draft.

• For additional information and administrative matters, you may send an email, in either English or Portuguese,

  to Kaian Lam (kaianlam@um.edu.mo).

• Your article should be ready for review no later than June 2024.

• Submission may be directed to Kaian Lam’s mailbox (kaianlam@um.edu.mo).

   We look forward to receiving your proposals! Guest editors:

Rethinking International Communism Conference: History and Legacies

Friday 2 - Saturday 3 September 2022

Liverpool John Moores University, Liverpool, UK

The AHRC-funded research network Rethinking International Communism aims to bring together scholars from a variety of disciplinary backgrounds who are engaged in the study of international communism and the Communist International (Comintern) between the world wars. Taking stock of recent trends in the literature, and examining new research agendas, the network provides a forum to reflect upon the past, the present and the future of Comintern studies.

This two-day conference in Liverpool invites participants to contribute to this reassessment of the history and legacies of the Comintern. We welcome papers of 20 minute duration which explore any aspect of Comintern history, and/or which address the legacies of the Communist International in the post-1945 era.

The conference keynote address will be delivered by Professor Brigitte Studer, Institute of History, University of Bern.

While for many years the history of the Comintern tended to trace a familiar path, with discussion dominated by the ‘centre-periphery’ debate, in more recent times scholarly attention has been increasingly drawn to new problems, informed by new approaches and methodologies. Pathbreaking work has been undertaken in the fields of anti-colonialism and anti-racism, and into the efforts of various Comintern organisations, and individuals, to construct a new international proletarian culture as a necessary step towards global revolution. Researchers too have continued to transform our understanding of the language, symbolism and practices of internationalism within national communist movements and parties. Increasingly, the old paradigms for making sense of the Comintern are proving inadequate. Bringing together a range of scholars across disciplinary boundaries, this conference aims to provide a step toward a new global reassessment of international communism.

Despite the dissolution of the Comintern in 1943, communist internationalism did not, of course, cease. Yet, the Comintern’s disciplined organisational model, and its ‘script for revolution’, appear to have been rapidly jettisoned by those seeking to effect radical political and social change. However, in this field too, scholars have increasingly emphasised important continuities. In contrast to the historical curiosity to which it has long been relegated, researchers have in recent years opened up new paths for understanding both the short and longer term legacies of the Communist International. This has notably been the case in the study of various specific political, social, cultural and aesthetic campaigns and movements in the post-1945 era which, at least in part, owed their existence to Comintern organisations and activists.

300 word abstracts, together with a brief 1 page CV, should be submitted to Comintern2022@ljmu.ac.uk by the extended deadline of Friday 20 May 2022. Successful applicants will be informed soon thereafter.

CFP to RBPI: Systemic crises of the 21stcentury - March 31st, 2021

Received from Revista Brasileira de Política Internacional

01-Sep-2020

Dear Dr. Paulo Roberto de Almeida

The 21st century is only beginning, but that it has had a turbulent start cannot be denied. Successive crises of different natures have been accumulating over the last two decades, starting with the first major financial crisis of this century, that of 2008, which had enormous social and economic consequences. Out of the political turmoil that has occurred this “short 21st century”, perhaps the main one is the weakening of the European Union’s community project, with the painful political process of Brexit. After that, political crises have intensified worldwide because of international political realignments derived from the strong emergence of conservative governments in Europe, North America, and Latin America.

Such systemic crises in politics and the economy have not been temporary or limited. Over the years, their effects have penetrated several regions around the world, while there has been a broadening of systemic crises. Humanitarian crisis appears from Sudan to Venezuela, coinciding with great activism on the part of violent social actors; refugee crises spread from Syria to Italy, across Europe, and into Latin America; environmental disasters occur from Australia and the Amazon; the latest crisis, the global public health calamity generated by the spread of Covid-19, is another cumulative crisis that has been added, with far-reaching impacts across the globe.

How have those systemic crises impacted and reconfigured changes in traditional international governance? Put differently, how do global crises impact the set of rules and norms in the form of international regimes or international organizations that govern international society? Who are the new agents of international governance, and what are their governance dynamics? How do crises generate new demands and foster new forms of global (dis)governance?

Traditional governance, that is, the set of rules that regulate the life of national and international society (in the form of regional or global multilateralism), and whose primary source of regulation is the state, has been tensioned. In the same way, societies are witnessing the emergence of new forms of formal and informal governance. The latter range from informal regional political agreements, along the lines of Prosur or the Lima Group, in Latin America, or the Frugal Four in Europe– their differences notwithstanding –, to new forms of governance generated by non-state agents working in fields such as trade, the environment, and human rights, all the way to forms of informal governance offered by transnational “outlaw” agents.

Hence, this call for papers welcomes contributions addressing how systemic crises of the 21stcentury are impacting traditional and new forms of international governance according to the following topics:

1. Changes in the concepts, practices, and methodologies of international governance approach;
2. Variations on who the agents and actors of international governance are today;
3. Pressures on traditional forms of governance organized in the way of regimes and multilateralism;
4. Transformations in regionalism brought about by international crisis;
5. The emergence of forms of informal political regionalism in the Global South driven by nationalist or conservative governments;
6. New forms of informal governance within and without the law;
7. Pressures on state governance in the field of security and their consequences;
8. Reactions of international powers to changes in formal and informal governance; and
9. Great and intermediate power responses to the challenges that have arisen in global and regional governance.

Rafael Duarte Villa (Associate Professor at the Department of Political Science of the University of São Paulo) and Haroldo Ramanzini Júnior (Associate Professor at the Institute of Economy and International Relations of the Federal University of Uberlândia) will edit the Special Issue.

All submissions should be original and unpublished, must be written in English, including an abstract which does not exceed 60 words (and 4-6 keywords in English), and follow the Chicago System. They must be in the range of 8,000 words (including title, abstract, bibliographic references, and keywords). RBPI general author’s guidelines can be found at https://www.scielo.br/revistas/rbpi/iinstruc.htm. Submissions must be made at http://www.scielo.br/rbpi (Online Submissions).

Articles can be submitted until March 31st, 2021. As a result of the collapse of public funding for the Brazilian scientific journals, especially those granted by the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development, RBPI had to start charging processing fees for articles approved for publication. The RBPI charges an article publication fee payable by authors whose works are accepted for publication, which is used exclusively to cover the costs of the editorial production services. Authors are encouraged to seek support from their institutions for the full or partial payment of publication fees. RBPI maintains a policy of partial waiver for publication fees, upon the availability of funds, reserved exclusively for doctoral students (they have to prove they do not have support from their Graduate Studies Programs to cover full or partial payment of the fees).

RBPI is published exclusively online at Scielo (http://www.scielo.br/rbpi), following the continuous publication model. This model gives faster publication for authors and faster access for readers because the articles are published online at the very moment their editorial production is finished. The first segment will be released in March 2021.

Call for Papers: Special Issue "Beyond COVID 19 Global Health in the spotlight - Volume 64

24-Jun-2020

Dear Dr. Paulo Roberto de Almeida

The field of Global Health has grown in part in response to the need to generate better sustained political and trade demands for more concerted international responses. In this sense, pressing global health challenges have transcended national borders and, due to their centrality to human and societal wellbeing, it has also been increasingly deployed as a tool for accomplishing multiple ends in global politics, whether in foreign policy, in foreign aid, or warfare.

The political structure of contemporary global health governance unfolds diverse dynamics and multidimensional processes with a wide range of actors, shedding light on new reconfigurations of health's international political economy. Concurrently, there has been a meaningful increase in international diplomatic coordination around health, especially in response to global threats (such as HIV/AIDS, SARS, Ebola, Zika virus congenital syndrome, and, more recently, the COVID-19). This can be seen in the way that cardinal international multilateral institutions – from the United Nations General Assembly, the World Bank, and the World Health Organization (WHO) – have converged on seeking to tackle many more global health issues also influenced by significant political and institutional dysfunctions.

The maxim "pathogens do not recognize borders" also requires a critical view of international cooperation in the field of health, delving into changes of States' foreign policies in the field of health, the power dynamics in international organizations, and the inter-relations among health, trade, migrations, and human rights. These topics showcase how the study of global health is increasingly providing new outlooks on some of the core assumptions and debates within IR discipline. In this regard, power asymmetries in the international sphere can offer explanations about why the spotlights are on certain diseases and not others as well as the role of transnational companies in the global epidemics of noncommunicable diseases, planetary health, security studies, HIV/AIDS politics, access to essential drugs, neglected diseases, and gender issues within the global health agenda.

The dimension reached by Covid-19 indicates that the field of global health is at a turning point, more visible than ever. The experts' predictions that a pandemic of devastating effects would occur were confirmed. All attention was turned to WHO, which has become the subject of domestic politics in some of its member states. Although the organization has experienced constant crises in recent decades, it is now being attacked with unprecedented intensity. New leaderships, alliances and agendas are likely to rival existing organizations. Investments in global health programs and the security agenda are likely to increase. To understand the impact of the pandemic on international relations, we must remember that the field of global health is broader and more complex than the Covid-19.

Therefore, this issue aims to raise awareness of global health debates and the reconfiguration of preexisting ideological, geopolitical, and methodological queries in the international realm. Hence, promising methodological and epistemological paths can be explored.

This special issue seeks further contributions on the following topics:

1. corporate influence, philanthrocapitalism, and global health governance;

2. planetary health, sustainability, and its dynamics on global politics;

3. changes in the concepts, approaches, and practices within global health diplomacy;

4. sexual, reproductive, maternal health, mental health and rights in conflict and post-conflict areas;

5. health, aid, crisis, and development;

6. global health security: recurring and emerging issues;

7. law, norms, and human rights in global health;

8. the politics of the health policy process: from global to local.

Deisy Ventura (Full Professor of Ethics at the School of Public Health of the University of São Paulo and president of the Brazilian Association of International Relations) and Danielle Rached (Professor at the Law School of the Getúlio Vargas Foundation, Rio de Janeiro) will edit the volume. All submissions should be original and unpublished, must be written in English, including an abstract which does not exceed 60 words (and 4-6 keywords in English), and follow the Chicago System. They must be in the range of 8,000 words (including title, abstract, bibliographic references, and keywords). RBPI general author’s guidelines can be found here.

Recebo, via lista da Latin American Studies Association (LASA), o seguinte Call for Papers, para um livro coordenado por meu amigo brasilianista Joseph Marques: 

Call for Papers
The Political Economy of Brazilian Cities: 
Strategies In Search of Economic Growth

A group of researchers interested in different aspects of Brazilian cities is currently discussing the feasibility of an edited volume under the abovementioned working title. Our objective is to present the latest research on several of the most important challenges currently faced by Brazilian cities (i.e. sustainability, innovation, social services, mobility, security, creative industries, circular economy, climate and environmental issues, etc.) and how specific cities are dealing with such challenges. We welcome chapters (in English) on specific issues affecting many Brazilian cities in general as well as chapters with case studies of specific cities. We hope to include between 8 – 12 case studies/cities. 
Please confirm your interest in participating in this project and specify specific issue and/or city of research interest. 
Obrigado!
Joseph Marques

RBPI: special issue on International Development Cooperation: call for papers

08-Aug-2019

Dear Dr. Paulo Roberto de Almeida

The International Development Cooperation field is in a state of disarray. Since its emergence, after World War II, it acquired a dual structure encompassing two positions: developed and developing countries, donors and recipients, north, and south. Two clubs reflected these positions: DAC/OECD and G-77, respectively. Two sets of practices also identified the field: Official Development Assistance (ODA), and Technical or Economic Cooperation among Developing Countries (TCDC and ECDC), later known as South-South Cooperation (SSC). Both practices, ODA and SSC, distinguished development cooperation from other economic flows such as trade or foreign investment.

Despite many changes about the very understanding of what development meant, development agents have adapted to relevant systemic changes. The field emerged within a bi-polar system and remained relatively unchanged for almost six decades. It survived the systemic transformation that took place after the end of the Cold War and kept relatively steady during the unipolar moment of the 1990s. While its agents played an essential role in establishing superpowers’ zones of influence, they also gave a significant contribution to the market-oriented reforms that happened later.

Nevertheless, after the 2000s emerging powers and the financial crisis had a significant impact upon the field’s foundations. Indeed, the current systemic change towards multipolarity is producing germane effects upon the ground. The growing engagement of BRICS, MIST and Arabic countries in development cooperation evidences the systemic change, generating a mirror effect on traditional donors’ stances, clubbing, and practices. The transformation of the field includes:

(i) changes in the concepts and practices of both ODA and SSC;

(ii) oscillations on the positions agents play in the field (donor, recipient, provider, partner or donor/recipient);

(iii) variations in grouping, coalitions, and initiatives (DAC/OECD, UNDCF, GPEDC, G77+China, G20, plus BRICS or IBSA);

(iv) shifts towards other economic flows, such as trade and investment, described as blended finance;

(v) a growing centrality of triangular cooperation;

All these trends point towards a structural transformation of the International Development Cooperation field. It is against this backdrop that the Revista Brasileira de Política Internacional - RBPI (http://www.scielo.br/rbpi) calls academic researchers and practitioners to submit contributions to this special issue. The issue aims at analyzing and assessing the current transformations in International Development Cooperation practices, governance and goals. We welcome contributions addressing how systemic changes are impacting on international development cooperation as well as those addressing the topics described above.

Paulo Esteves (Associate Professor of International Relations at the Institute of International Relations / PUC-Rio) and Geovana Zoccal (Humboldt Research Fellow at the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development) will edit the volume. All submissions should be original and unpublished, must be written in English, including an abstract which does not exceed 60 words (and 4-6 keywords in English), and follow the Chicago System. They must be in the range of 8.000 words (including title, abstract, bibliographic references, and keywords). RBPI general authors guidelines can be found at http://www.scielo.br/revistas/rbpi/iinstruc.htm. Submissions must be done at https://mc04.manuscriptcentral.com/rbpi-scielo.

Articles can be submitted September 1st, 2019 and January 31th, 2020.

RBPI is published exclusively online at Scielo (http://www.scielo.br/rbpi), following the continuous publication model. This model gives faster publication for authors and also faster access for readers because the articles are published online at the very moment their editorial production is finished. The first segment will be likely released in January 2020.

International Conference for the Study of Chinese Immigration to Brazil: Local Contexts and Global Perspectives
巴西华人移民研究国际研讨会特征和全球视角
August 22-23, 2018, São Paulo, Brazil

Ever since Chinese immigration to Brazil began to emerge as a field of study in 1970, it has attracted the interest of Chinese, Brazilian, and American scholars from various disciplines, as well as students, journalists, diplomats, and independent writers. These scholars and authors have contributed to the field with books, research papers, reports, and memoirs. Most of these works, however, were isolated efforts with few or no exchanges among those who dedicated themselves to the study of Chinese immigration to Brazil.
This first International Conference for the Study of Chinese Immigration to Brazil, to be held at the University of São Paulo on August 22-23, 2018, intends to promote and advance the study of Chinese immigration in a global perspective while aiming at constructing a platform to promote international exchanges in this promising interdisciplinary field of studies. We welcome panel proposals and individual papers from scholars, journalists, undergraduate and graduate students, independent writers, etc. The conference language will be ENGLISH, but Chinese, Spanish, and Portuguese language proposals will also be accepted. Possible themes include, but are not limited to the following:
1.  Chinese migration in a global perspective.
2.  Chinese immigration to Brazil: history and beyond.
3.  Diasporic Associations, Transnational Business Networks and Cultural Identity.
4.  Chinese Language Teaching, Chinese media in Brazil.
5.  Local integration, social mobility and political visibility.
6.  Chinese immigration to Brazil and its impact on Local Economy and Culture.

7.  Topics related to Chinese immigration in Latin America.
上世纪70年代以来, 巴西华人移民研究进入一个崭新的阶段。很多华人学者、巴西问题研究人员、大学教师、硕博士、记者、外交官以及独立作者已经出版或发表了一些有关华侨华人移民的书籍、论文、专题报道和回忆录,但大多数著作都是在几乎没有和同行交流的基础上单独完成的。鉴于此,巴西圣保罗大学东方语言系中文专业决定于今年8月22-23日在圣保罗召开第一届巴西华人移民国际研讨会,一是为了推进全球视野下的巴西华人移民研究,二是尝试为这个大有前途的跨学科研究领域建立一个国际交流的平台。我们真诚欢迎来自世界各地的学者、记者、作者和其他研究人士参加本次会议,交流巴西华人研究的成果和经验。会议工作语言为英语,但是我们接受中文,西班牙语和葡萄牙语的文稿。
本次会议的议题包含 (但是并不局限于) 以下几个方面:
1.全球视野下的华人移民
2. 巴西的华人移民历史与反思
3. 巴西华人社团跨国商业网络,文化认同
4巴西的中文教学,中文媒体
5华人融入当地社会流动,政治参与
6华人移民巴西对当地经济与文化的影响
7拉美华人移民有关的议题
