Network Inter-Disciplinary.Net will hold the 6th Global Conference in Prague, Czech Republic, on 11-13 March 2011, seeking to explore the new developments and changes of the idea of pluralism and their implications for social and political processes of inclusion and citizenship in contemporary societies. The project will also assess the larger context of major world transformations, such as new forms of migration and the massive movements of people across the globe, as well as the impact of the multiple dynamics of globalisation on rootedness and membership (including their tensions and conflicts) and on a general sense of social acceptance and recognition.

Looking to encourage innovative trans-disciplinary dialogues from all disciplines, professions and vocations which struggle to understand what it means for people, the world over, to be citizens in rapidly changing national, social and political landscapes, papers, workshops, presentations and pre-formed panels will discuss the following themes: Challenging Old Concepts of Citizen and Alien; Nations, Fluid Boundaries and Citizenship; Institutions, Organizations and Social Movements; Persons, Personhood and the Inter-Personal; Media and Artistic Representations; Transnational Political Interlacing of Contemporary Life; New Concepts, New Forms of Inclusion.
