10th International Conference on the Historical Links between Spain and the Americas

TRANSATLANTIC TRANSFORMATIONS: HISTORIES, DEMOCRACIES, AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE

New York, April 30  - May 2, 2025
The advent and consolidation of new technologies and social movements, added to the challenges created by climate change and population displacement, have put the concept of Democracy to the test glocally. That is to say that local socio-cultural phenomena are now articulated to global trends and changes in the globalized market for cultural capital (Social Media), the market economy, and transnational politics. As a byproduct of modernity, Modern Democracies grew alongside scientific narratives and social science methods aimed at allowing a merit-based system of social mobility regulated by the market and innovation. However, the recently established global attention economy and the crisis of the paradigm of verifiable truth pose existential threats to the different versions of Democracy or democratic systems around the world. The International Conference on "Historical Links between Spain and the Americas" explores the rich historical interaction between Spain and the Americas and how these ties have influenced the contemporary challenges in this transatlantic region. Through a wide range of approaches in the humanities, social sciences, and emerging topics such as climate change, immigration, and ecocriticism, the conference will seek to analyze current dynamics and their impact on the future of Democracy in the West.
Areas of Interest:
1. Humanities and Social Sciences:
2. Climate Change
3. Immigration and population displacement:
4. The Future of Democracy in the West
5. The conference welcomes special non-geographically restricted proposals and panels on: STEM and Artificial intelligence.
