SUMMARY:G2020/NUIG: Conference: Translating the Neighbourhood: Migration\, dialogue and spaces of translation in the 21st century
DESCRIPTION:Keynotes:\nProf. Loredana Polezzi (Cardiff) – Prof. Sherry Simon (Concordia) \nUrban spaces have always been places of translation (Simon 2012; Meylaerts and Gonne 2014; Cronin and Simon 2014)\, where encounters between languages and cultures have given birth to both conflict and exchange. In the last few decades\, increasingly diverse urban environments have emerged\, making coexistence between different communities a key contemporary issue. As a multi-disciplinary event\, this conference explores urban spaces (cities and towns) as areas of translation\, of dialogue and silence\, communication and interaction. \nThis conference is specifically preoccupied with translation in society and beyond the text: translation as the managing of difference\, a tool for inclusion or exclusion within the context of the contemporary urban space. As a multi-disciplinary\, multi-media event\, the conference intends to explore the different instances where people perform translation on the social stage in response to the many challenges and stimuli of 21st century globalization. Some of these translations are performed by professionals\, some by non-professionals; some are intended to impact policy or contribute to a public debate\, while others may last the short space of an oral exchange. \nThe conference “Translating the Neighbourhood: Migration\, dialogue and spaces of translation in the 21st century” takes place within the scope of the IRC and MSCA funded project “Language Integration and New Communities in Multicultural Societies”. We welcome papers that explore different instances of translation and dialogue\, including but not limited to: \n• translation and asylum;\n• translation and minorities;\n• translation in specific places (shops\, cafés\, streets\, markets);\n• translation and education in multilingual settings;\n• language biographies of newcomers;\n• translation and public performance (e.g. multicultural theatre);\n• translingual art in/about the city;\n• translation policy in urban spaces;\n• formal vs. informal translation and interpreting;\n• absent spaces of translation \nThe conference will take place in Galway – a bilingual city and the 2020 European Capital of Culture. During the first day\, speakers will present their research\, followed by keynote addresses by Prof. Loredana Polezzi (Cardiff University) and Prof. Sherry Simon (Concordia University). On the second day\, practitioners\, artists\, performers and activists who work in the field will collaboratively conduct workshops and demonstrations of translation in the neighbourhood. \nFor further information\, please contact the organisers Andrea Ciribuco and Anne O’Connor at: andrea.ciribuco@nuigalway.ie and anne.oconnor@nuigalway.ie

SUMMARY:Ireland\, Borders\, and Covid-19 - Covid-19 Response Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Update: Video and audio recordings of this session are now available. \n\nThis panel brings together perspectives from Sociology\, Political Science and Public Health to examine debates surrounding boundaries and pandemic-control in Ireland and their relationship to pandemic controls in Britain\, Europe and the wider world. It examines the extent\, and the limitations\, of an all-Ireland approach\, the significance of variation within the United Kingdom\, and the nature of borders within and around post-pandemic Ireland. \nAs the Covid-19 pandemic spread rapidly across the world in the early weeks and months of 2020\, new kinds of boundaries were established while existing borders took on a new significance: from the self-regulated two-metre boundary that now surrounds every individual\, to the local\, regional\, and inter-state boundaries that are being deployed to control the spread of the virus. \nTwo distinctively different kinds of boundary are of particular significance in the case of Ireland: the natural boundary of the sea and the island’s contested but porous land border. In common with other islands\, Ireland enjoys a natural ‘isolation’ that can be used to help control the spread of disease\, offering the possibility of following the path New Zealand has taken to create a zone that is almost free of the virus. Brexit had already pushed the Irish border to the heart of debate on the future UK-EU relationship as it became a line of new international significance. The experience of the coronavirus crisis will further complicate all analysis of the future of Ireland’s borders\, not least by underlining the fact that borders are not only lines of division but points of connection too. \nPanellists\n\nDr. Katy Hayward (Queen’s University Belfast)\nProf. Niall Ó Dochartaigh (NUI Galway)\nDr. Gabriel Scally (Bristol)\n\nChair: Prof Daniel Carey (NUI Galway) \nRegistration\nYou can register to join via Zoom at: https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_AVqWyP_SR-yYcrHSXXiANw. The session will also be broadcast live on our Facebook page at: https://www.facebook.com/mooreinstitute/live.
