The conference aims at analyzing configurations of gendered power
relations from the early modern era to the present from an
interdisciplinary perspective. The focus will be on these relations’
transformations and how they have been renegotiated and revisioned
regarding the interwoven analytical levels of medialization, normative
frames, and social practices. Correlations between transformation and
change will be examined as well as formations of traditions and the
development of historicizing narratives employed to legitimize
gendered relations of power, including the justification of state
power through naturalizing gender discourses.

Russia, Eastern Europe, and Central Asia have often been conceptualized as a single geopolitical unit due to the significance of the Soviet Union and its eventual disintegration. However, the twenty-first century has challenged essentializing conceptions of the region thanks to breakthroughs in technology and medicine, new regional conflicts, and globalization. Transformations in daily life, prompted by climate change and disaster, paradigm shifts in thought, and sweeping political revolution have molded individuals, nations, cultures, languages, and disciplines, and provoked intense social construction and reconstruction. For our 19th annual conference, GOSECA invites presentations exploring the themes of reconstruction and deconstruction, whether political, economic, linguistic, social, cultural, artistic, or any other kind.
