Deterritorializing Deleuze, June 18-22 (workshop), June 25-27 (conference)

NOTE: The deadline for submission of abstracts for the conference is March 31. The early submission, early notification deadline was February 1. We continue to accept abstracts for the conference. The workshop is now fully booked and applicants are now being put on a waiting list in the order that they are received..

The Fifth International Deleuze Studies Conference, “Deterritorializing Deleuze,” is being organized in coordination with

Southeastern Louisiana University, Department of History and Political Science
Tulane University Department of Philosophy

Although we wait to hear from several invited speakers, currently confirmed speakers include (among others):

Brent Adkins
Jeffrey Bell
Ronald Bogue
Levi Bryant
Ian Buchanan
Claire Colebrook
Gary Genosko
Eugene Holland
Joe Hughes
Eleanor Kaufman
Gregg Lambert
Mary Beth Mader
Catarina Pombo Nabais
Paul Patton
Patricia Pisters
John Protevi
Anne Sauvagnargues
Daniel Smith
Charles Stivale
James Williams

Individual abstracts as well as panel proposals are welcomed at this point and until the final submission deadline, which is March 31, 2012. Notification of acceptance will be emailed by April 15. We realize that some people, in order to assure funding, would like to receive word of their proposal's acceptance earlier than April 15; therefore, for all proposals submitted before February 1, notification of acceptance will be emailed by March 1. We will also have a mixture of plenary panels and quasi-plenary panels (with only three concurrent panels) on themes appropriate to this year’s theme, Deterritorializing Deleuze. There will thus be, for example, panels on Deleuze and architecture, Deleuze and literature, Deleuze and music, Deleuze and the philosophical tradition, etc. We especially welcome submissions that push Deleuze’s (and Guattari’s) thought in these directions and along others that are not listed.

The conference registration fee is $275, which includes refreshments throughout the day and a casual lunch each day. The conference fee form is now available at the conference registration page. Deadline for registration fees will be June 1, though fees will be discounted for those who pay on or before May 1.

 

Summer Workshop

Prior to the conference we will have the 6th Annual Deleuze Camp. Spaces are limited so it is recommended that those interested submit their application and registration fee ($225.00) to the Conference organizer by February 1. Applications should include a brief statement of one’s research interests in Deleuze. Selection is made on a first-come first-serve basis. There is also the possibility for presenting a brief 15-minute summary of one’s research work during the workshop. If you are interested in doing so, please make sure to state your desire to do so and provide some detail of what you will be discussing. Applicants will be notified by March 1 whether they will be allotted one of the open-mic slots.
