LIVESTOCK IN THE LUSOPHONE WORLD \u2013 HISTORICAL AND ANTHROPOLOGICAL PERSPECTIVES, 19TH-21ST CENTURIES<\/strong><\/div>\n
\n

Online Workshop, 2-3 October 2023<\/p>\n

Call for papers for an online workshop<\/p>\n

Deadline: January 31, 2023<\/del><\/p>\n

Because of the key social, economic and symbolic roles livestock have historically played in the lives of populations across the world and continue to play today, human\u2013livestock relations and livestock production systems have become established subjects of inquiry in the humanities and the social sciences, and increasingly rely on insights from different disciplinary fields, including the natural sciences. The connection between livestock and imperialism has particularly drawn the interest of scholars with different backgrounds and perspectives, focusing on topics such as changing livestock practices in societies divided along racial lines, the challenges of specific disease environments or the ecological transformations wrought by the expansion of industrial livestock production. The \u201canimal turn\u201d in the social sciences and the humanities has recently called on scholars to move away from anthropocentric views, focusing rather on human animal \u2013 non-human animal relations and on multispecies perspectives. Furthermore, perspectives centred on different types of livestock have complexified analytical scales, stressing the interconnectedness of local, regional, national, transnational and trans-imperial dimensions.<\/p>\n

Acknowledging the different empirical contributions and theoretical discussions that this theme has garnered over the past decades, the goal of this workshop is to bring together insights from areas such as environmental history, anthropology, global history, social history, agrarian studies, the history of health, animal studies and development studies to investigate the evolving role of livestock in different areas of the Lusophone world.<\/p>\n

This timeframe and broad geographical focus could thus encompass case studies focusing for instance on the expansion of cattle ranching in post-independence Brazil and its relation with deforestation; on the struggles of pastoralists against the colonial state in 1960s southern Angola; on the changing role of buffaloes in colonial and post-colonial East Timor; or on the relation between food security and women\u2019s poultry production in 21st century Mozambique.<\/p>\n

We propose to create a space to debate aspects related to livestock in areas in South America, Africa and Asia that were once under Portuguese colonial rule, but also to discuss the evolving relations between these areas. Presentations may focus on a narrower or broader time period between the 19th and 21st centuries and engage with analytical approaches from different fields, or with inter or transdisciplinary perspectives.<\/p>\n

We welcome submissions focused on the Lusophone world that include, but are not limited to, the following sub-themes and topics:<\/p>\n
