AFPP is an international, cross-disciplinary conference on social movements, protest and cognate topics. It has drawn participants from over 60 countries, whether based in departments of sociology, politics, cultural studies, psychology, economics, history, geography or elsewhere. Discussions are marked by a long-established spirit of collegial and comradely participation, making for a friendly meeting ground between academia and activism.
We invite offers of papers relevant to the broad conference theme, which might address such matters as:
contemporary or historical movements and protests from any global region
theories of social movements, labour movements and revolution
utopias, experiments in alternative living and everyday politics
ideologies, imaginaries and strategies of collective action
opposition to discrimination and confrontations with capitalism, patriarchy or coloniality
