Organized by the Society for the Study of Emotion, Affect and Space, the Third International and Interdisciplinary Conference on Emotional Geographies will be held at the University of South Australia in Adelaide April 6-8, 2010. Hosted by the Hawke Research Centre and the Bob Hawke Ministerial Centre.
Invited Speakers include:
- Professor Sara Ahmed (Goldsmiths College, University of London)
- Professor Pal Ahluwalia (University of South Australia)
- Professor Michael Dutton (Griffith University & Goldsmiths College)
One special theme of the conference is Consuming & Producing Affective Spaces of Taste. Focusing on the relations of production and consumption we want to examine how spaces of tastes are being refigured within the cultural economics of transglobalisation. We are especially interested in specific studies of the changing geographies of food, tourism, and other material commodities, as well as more general theoretical investigations of the connections between production, consumption, emotions and space.
