Call for Papers: Annual Lithuanian Political Science Conference “Vision of Resilience: Governance and Politics in the Context of Uncertainty”, Submission Deadline- 19 October
The Annual Lithuanian Political Science Conference “Vision of Resilience: Governance and Politics in the Context of Uncertainty”, which will take place on 4-5 December, 2025, at the Institute of International Relations and Political Science, Vilnius University, invites for a broader analysis of resilience – ranging from its hard (military, economic, strategic) to soft (informational, cultural, psychological) forms, and from conventional to unconventional security threats as well as responses to them. The conference aims to foster interdisciplinary dialogue on what it means to be resilient in nowadays global, European, and Lithuanian political context.
We invite to submit presentation and panel proposals that address, but are not limited to, the following resilience-related questions:
- How can national and international governance systems ensure resilience to crises?
- What is the role of economic policy choices in strengthening resilience?
- How are theories and practices of international relations changing in the context of resilience?
- How does resilience manifest itself in social structures, civic engagement, culture, and media?
- What role does resilience play in contemporary security and defense strategies?
- What is the role of informational resilience in combating disinformation and propaganda?
- How can we philosophically, normatively, and practically define democratic resilience?
Proposals of presentations and panels should be submitted by 19 October via this form.
Information regarding the selection of presentations and panels for the conference programme will be announced by 3 November. Proposals may be submitted in Lithuanian and English; however, remote participation in the conference will not be possible.
