  • Technologies, Artificial Intelligence, and Authorship in Discourse

    2024-06-13

    With the technological advancements afforded by artificial intelligence (AI), which develop in ways that both predict and generate outcome, questions such as capturing and maintaining users' attention and authorial production are at the forefront. This encompasses renewed discussions on reception, audience formation, and discourse circulation, as well as on originality, copyright, Creative Commons,  and the origins of creative works, among other topics that highlight the relationships of interaction and interlocution. Like all technologies, AI is the product of historically specific political and aesthetic practices that address particular demands while also generating new ones based on their innovative capacities. We invite  researchers to contribute to this special issue by submitting case studies, reports of creative experiences, and terminological or epistemological reflections that examine the intricate relationship between creation and tools. Submissions should consider the current landscape of AI, characterized by such developments as self-learning machines, opaque algorithms, and Large Language Models.

  • The Soviet and the Post-Soviet in Dialogue with (Post-/De-)Colonial Studies

    2023-07-20

    We invite researchers to submit articles that explore encounters, possible dialogues and
    cross-fertilization between (post-/de-)colonial studies and the intellectual and cultural
    history of the Soviet and post-Soviet world.
    We particularly encourage reflection on key ideas such as Orientalism, imperialism,
    universalism, identity, minority, race and gender, addressing them from various
    disciplinary perspectives, among which history, philosophy, literary theory, discourse
    and media studies.
