Interdisciplinary Research Foundation is pleased to announce the Call for Papers for the upcoming Online International Conference ‘Time, Space and Mobility’. The conference is addressed to academics, researchers and professionals with a particular interest related to the conference topic. We invite proposals from various disciplines including philosophy, history, sociology, anthropology, culture studies, literature and architecture. The language of the conference is English.
The conference will explore space and time as fundamental categories of human experience and cognition and it will discuss various interpretations of these categories from interdisciplinary perspectives. The conference will also examine conceptions and perceptions of time and space in relation to memory, historical and social change, technological innovations, interactivity and cultural differentiation.
Papers are invited on topics related, but not limited, to:
• time and space boundaries
