Call for Papers: Dossier Culture and Politics in Brazil: a decade under
review (2011-2020)

Posted on 2020-05-28


*Brasiliana: Journal for Brazilian Studies* is pleased to announce this
call for papers for a dossier to be published in August 2021 on the
relationship between culture and politics in Brazil over the past decade
(2011-2020). The period between 2011 and 2020 was marked by a number of
milestone political events, such as Dilma Rousseff’s two-term
administration – including the June 2013 protests and the 2016 presidential
impeachment –, Michel Temer’s transitional administration, and the election
of Jair Bolsonaro. Adopting an interdisciplinary approach, this special
issue intends to critically examine the way that relationships between
culture and politics have been articulated in Brazil in connection with
major national and/or global events over the past decade. The editors
welcome submissions analysing such relationships within the
interdisciplinary field of Brazilian studies, which is the focus of this
academic journal. Topics of particular interest for this dossier are:


* Responses to the 2016 impeachment

* Street protests and mobilisations across the decade

* Culture, foreign policy, and diplomacy

* Cultural wars, censorship, and polarisation in the arts

* Dictatorship and Democracy: post-memorial narratives and negations

* The question of citizenship to specific social groups such as
Afro-Brazilians, women, indigenous peoples, disabled persons, and the LGBT
community

* Culture, Politics, and Human Rights

* Democracy and artistic representation

* Conservatism, militarism, and the extreme right

* The politics of culture


We accept publications in Portuguese, English, and Spanish. Authors must
adhere to the guidelines and submit texts online by the 30th April 2021.
Submission link: https://tidsskrift.dk/bras/about/submissions This issue
will mark the 10th anniversary of King’s Brazil Institute, and will have as
guest editors Mário Augusto Medeiros da Silva (Unicamp), Daniela Vieira dos
Santos (Universidade Estadual de Londrina), Sandra Assunção (Université
Paris Nanterre), alongside the editor-in-chief Felipe Botelho Correa
(King’s College London).


We look forward to reading your submissions.


Best Regards,


Editors of *Brasiliana: Journal for Brazilian Studies*
