[acc-cca-l] CHILD AND TEEN CONSUMPTION CONFERENCE (Deadline tomorrow: 30 January 2024)

[Children and Teen Consumption 2024]

[△EXTERNAL]


Hello,

Apologies for cross-posting. Please share with your networks.


The 2024 edition of the Child and Teen Consumption (CTC) Conference will be held in Toronto (Canada) and hosted by York University, October 16-18, 2024.


The theme of the 11th Child and Teen Consumption Conference is Playing with Borders. The borders and boundaries of young people’s cultural worlds are messy and in flux, especially in the spaces of consumer culture, digital culture and media culture. From the borders between the analog and the digital, the authentic and the branded, the global and the local, play and labour to, food and fun, young people contest, resist, negotiate, push and play with the boundaries in the between. We invite research and approaches that interrogate the concepts and definition of children’s and teen's “play”, and how young people themselves “play” in mediated and digitized spaces.

This theme is dedicated to the critical study of issues relevant to child and teen consumption, with methods and perspectives drawn from across the humanities and qualitative social sciences. We welcome applications from any discipline, department, or field. We are especially eager to receive applications that approach such questions from critical perspectives that centre marginalized selves: queer, trans, feminist, crip, antiracist, abolitionist, decolonial, Indigenous, diasporic, transnational, and so on.

  *
