Responsibility 5th Global Conference

Responsibility
5th Global Conference


Call for Submissions 2016

Thursday 17th March – Saturday 19th March 2016
Budapest, Hungary

As evidenced by the outrage at banking institutions and the governments that failed to hold them accountable for the Global Financial Crisis, calls for Muslim leaders to take more responsibility for condemning Islamic extremists and the perennial accusations that young people lack the personal responsibility of previous generations, the concept of responsibility features prominently in a diverse range of social, political and cultural discussions. While issues of responsibility are seldom far from the public eye, the ways in which they are framed often send mixed messages about expected behaviour. On one hand, we are often told that the ability to recognise the consequences of our actions and take responsibility for them is not only a measure of maturity, it is a marker of good character. On the other hand, certain legal protections, cultural cues that encourage individuals to blame others for their circumstances and the public’s willingness to look the other way when famous and powerful people misbehave provide opportunities – and even incentives – for avoiding responsibility.

It is precisely because responsibility is invoked in different ways, in different contexts and in the service of different viewpoints that the concept has acquired a richness of meaning that is complex and, at times, contradictory. We may use phrases like ‘taking responsibility’ and ‘holding someone responsible’, but what does responsibility really mean? What are the necessary conditions for responsibility? Where does responsibility begin and end? Is there ever virtue in irresponsibility or in sidestepping questions of responsibility altogether? How do perceptions of responsibility colour the way we behave in our personal relationships, our occupations and as citizens in communities? Can concepts of responsibility be applied meaningfully to non-human entities such as governments, corporations or organisations? How can discussions of responsibility lead to substantive, positive changes aimed at personal development and social justice?

The Global Project on Responsibility provides a platform for exploring these questions from an interdisciplinary perspective. As the project’s inaugural event, the Global Conference on Responsibility serves as a broad survey of the meaning and implications of responsibility. Building on the discussions of the first conference, the project will offer conferences, workshops and seminars that enable participants to drill down into the dynamics of responsibility as it plays out on an individual, collective and institutional level. The strand of programming that highlights personal responsibility will focus on how responsibility informs the ways in which individuals live their lives and interact with each other. In recognition that institutions play a critical role in shaping the social, political and cultural landscape we occupy, a separate strand will explore what is at stake when the concept of responsibility is applied to non-human entities with their own structures, rules and objectives. The third and final strand of programming examines collective responsibility as a middle ground between the individual and organised institutions whose agency and obligations are legally recognised. This strand considers the implications of holding members of a group (usually defined on the basis of factors like race, gender, sexuality, ethnicity, nationality or profession) accountable for the actions of other members as well as current and historical actions carried out in the group’s name.

The project organisers welcome proposals for presentations, workshops, performances, installations, readings and panels that explore the concept of responsibility in ways that include, but are not limited to:
