Call for Papers "Citizenship in a Globalized World: Perspectives from the Immigrant Democracies" Interdisciplinary Conference University of New South Wales Sydney, NSW (Australia) 14-15 July 2010 __________________________________________________ A conference on "Citizenship in a Globalized World: Perspectives from the Immigrant Democracies", will be held at the University of New South Wales in Sydney on 14-15 July 2010, sponsored by the Harvard University Committee on Australian Studies, the Australian Government Department of Immigration and Citizenship, and University of New South Wales. Organizers: Geoffrey Brahm Levey and Ayelet Shachar In many ways, re-emerging and conflicting dynamics of globalization and protectionism are sharpening a tension at the very core of liberal democracies, namely, between the commitment to universal liberal and democratic values, on the one hand, and the commitment to a particular national culture and political community, on the other. These complex developments raise a number of pressing questions, which may be grouped into three clusters: 1) Citizenship and Justice across Borders 2) Rethinking the Relationships between Sending and Receiving Countries 3) The Politics of Immigration For more information, contact Geoffrey Brahm Levey: [email protected] __________________________________________________ InterPhil List Administration: http://interphil.polylog.org Intercultural Philosophy Calendar: http://cal.polylog.org __________________________________________________
