We are happy to announce the Call for Contribution for the 6th Meeting of the European Hiphop Studies Network! The meeting will focus on aspects of legitimization of hip hop studies as an interdisciplinary academic field through the relationship between the West and the rest, specifically, but not limited to, the former Eastern bloc.
- What is so unique about the position of hip hop studies beyond the West?
- How do we build the bridges between the East and the West?
- What is the role of institutionalization and legitimization when it comes to the status of European hip hop studies?
- What can “the rest” learn from the West (and vice versa)?
We invite papers, panel proposals, performances or other types of contributions from different backgrounds and perspectives. Academic disciplines include art, history, linguistics, sociolinguistics, musicology, sociology, political science, musicology, cultural studies, visual art, philosophy, pedagogy, performance studies (and others). The call applies to academics as well as to performers or teaching artists of different backgrounds.
