CALL FOR PAPERS

GLOBAL DISASTERS AND WORLD SOCIETY:
THE ECOLOGICAL DIMENSION OF MODERN WORLD- SYSTEM CRISIS
>From March 25 to March 27 2024
The conference will bring together scholars, activists, politicians, and
government officials to share ideas and analyses of the current crises from
a world- historical perspective and to make
plans for survival and mitigation of increasingly frequent and severe
global and local natural and anthropogenic disasters, and to lay the tracks
for a more just, democratic, and collectively rational world society.

This will be a fully hybrid conference with both local face- to- face and
remote participants who will be able to present, discuss and view other
speakers and local and remote audiences as well. The face- to- face part of
the colloquium will take place at the Federal University of Santa Catarina
in Florianopolis. Remote access for speakers and audience from South
America, Africa, Europe, North America, South
and East Asia and Oceania will be provided through Zoom Platform. The
conference will be primarily in English but translation captioning will be
available as well. The reach of hybrid conferences can be extended, and
global participation can be enhanced by organizing local hubs in
which participants come together to present their own papers, and to tune
in to, and interact with, the live conference being held in Florianópolis.
The conference organizers are encouraging researchers to investigate the
evolution of the modern world- system, and plans for moving toward a less
unequal and more cooperative global society.  I
ssues that may be addressed at the conference include, but are
not limited to, the following:
• National and Transnational Social Movements for Climate Action
• The Causes and Consequences of Natural and Human- Caused Disasters
• Similarities and Differences between the vulnerabilities and capabilities
of Core, Semiperipheral
and Peripheral national societies and states
• Ecosocialist planning for a resilient, just and sustainable world society.
