33rd Nordic Ethnology and Folklore Conference - CO-
"CO" – Co-productions, collaborations, contestations coming together in Copenhagen
CO is the English language prefix meaning with, together, joint, or jointly. It points in the direction of partners or assistants – as in co-authors or cohabitants, but can even indicate a relationship including a subordinate, as in a co-pilot or co-driver. The overall idea of the conference is to explore the analytical, methodological and theoretical potentials of the prefix CO.
Full participation are for invited and registered participants only. However, keynote lectures and opening are open (first come, first serve).
