Crossroads
Crossroads 2020 in Lisbon, Portugal
The Association for Cultural Studies is delighted to announce that the next ACS Crossroads in Cultural Studies conference will be held in Lisbon, Portugal, from July 28 to 31, 2020, hosted by the School of Arts and Humanities of the University of Lisbon. The 13th Crossroads in Cultural Studies conference is co-organised by the Association for Cultural Studies (ACS) and the University of English Centre for English Studies (ULICES/CEAUL).
The Crossroads in Cultural Studies Conference has played an important role in fostering the global exchange of Cultural Studies scholarship. It has become a major international conference where scholars from all five continents gather regularly to share their research, critical views, and scholarly insights. Organized by ACS, the Crossroads conference is held every other year in different parts of the world. Previous conferences have taken place in Birmingham (UK), Urbana-Champaign (USA), Istanbul (Turkey), Kingston (Jamaica), Hong Kong (China), Paris (France), Tampere (Finland), Sydney (Australia) and Shanghai (China).
The 13th Crossroads in Cultural Studies conference will bring scholars together in Lisbon to engage with the past, present and future of cultural studies scholarship, as well as a vibrant cultural backdrop for the scholarly programme.

CALL FOR PAPERS, Abstract submission and panel proposals deadline 30 November 2019
We hope that the Lisbon 2020 Crossroads will bring Cultural Studies scholars into inter- and cross-disciplinary and institutional dialogues through conference presentations, film screenings, exhibits, book launches and roundtables. Building also on existing research at CEAUL/ULICES within the scope of Cultural Studies, this event will contribute to the development of opportunities for networking and future research collaborations. Our goal is to provide a platform to promote the exchange of knowledge, research outputs and experiences, and encourage the creation of further links among scholars and practitioners.
While the research of the invited keynotes and plenary speakers mostly gravitates around the issues of labour and precarities, decolonizing knowledge and the refugee “crisis” in the Mediterranean, the conference is open to all topics relevant to Cultural Studies.
