The American Studies Association is inviting proposals for their 2013 annual meeting: "Beyond the Logic of Debt, Toward an Ethics of Collective Dissent" being held November 21st-24th, 2013 in Washington D.C. They are calling for discussions of "debt" in its many historical, contemporary, and allegorical dimensions, and invite everyone to offer insights on not only the dominant logic of debt, but also the alternative practices of collective dissent that disrupt and deregulate its coercive power. Submission deadline is January 26, 2013.
