We invite papers from all disciplines of Caribbean Studies across the arts, humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences, on topics relating to the Hispanic, Francophone, Dutch and Anglophone Caribbean and their diasporas.<\/p>\n<p>This year, SCS is celebrating its 50th anniversary. To celebrate this milestone, we are delighted that the conference will be hosted by the Yesu Persaud Centre for Caribbean Studies (YPCCS) at the University of Warwick. YPCCS was established in 1984 as one of the first research centres in the UK dedicated to the Caribbean. Since its foundation, YPCCS has hosted the annual \u2018Walter Rodney Memorial Lecture\u2019 and, since 2022, the \u2018Ameena Gafoor Lecture Series\u2019. This year, we are excited to announce that the Ameena Gafoor lecture will take place as part of the SCS conference.<\/p>\n<p>See more here: <a href=\"https:\/\/community-languages.org.uk\/scs\/call-for-papers-50th-annual-conference-of-the-society-for-caribbean-studies\/\">https:\/\/community-languages.org.uk\/scs\/call-for-papers-50th-annual-conference-of-the-society-for-caribbean-studies\/<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Call for Papers: 50th Annual Conference for the Society for Caribbean Studies 2027 CALL FOR PAPERS 50th Annual Conference of<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/community-languages.org.uk\/scs\/50th-annual-society-for-caribbean-studies-conference-cfp\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">50th Annual Society for Caribbean Studies Conference CFP<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2923","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-conference"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/community-languages.org.uk\/scs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2923","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/community-languages.org.uk\/scs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/community-languages.org.uk\/scs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/community-languages.org.uk\/scs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/community-languages.org.uk\/scs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2923"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/community-languages.org.uk\/scs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2923\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2924,"href":"https:\/\/community-languages.org.uk\/scs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2923\/revisions\/2924"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/community-languages.org.uk\/scs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2923"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/community-languages.org.uk\/scs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2923"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/community-languages.org.uk\/scs\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2923"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
