About |
The CALA 2021 theme, “Sign and a New Society”, describes a culmination of 300 years of East-West global communication. Throughouty, the symbolisms of Asian ‘text’ have been significantly emphasized, contested, (re)interpreted, and distorted, while employed for both political and Anthropological purpose. Asian text has become a highly representational, and legitimizing device, and its potency cannot be underestimated. Never has it shown more significance than in the current era, where its intensified usage, and its qualities in Asian identities, seek description. |
Call for Papers |
The CALA 2021 thus calls for renewed interpretations of Asian texts, and asks that we seek new perspectives of these complex texts, in their global contexts. These interpretations increase in significance as; return migration to Asia is now a salient factor in transnational flows; online texts and their textual modes now compete ever more enthusiastically to effect disjunctures in previously Western dominated technologies; perspectives of life and social interaction now increasingly draw from Asia, producing spaces for revised textual semiotics; the intersubjectivities of political, sociocultural, and religious practices motivate dialogue, thus shifting ethnic demarcations, and sociopolitical interventions. Ultimately, Eastern demographics, and their social dynamics, continue to uniquely inform and complexify Asian texts, in both local and in global contexts. |
