SUMMARY:Espaces de différences: Conflits et cohabitation / Spaces of Diffe
 rence: Conflicts and Cohabitation
DESCRIPTION:Since its creation in 2013\, the transatlantic International Re
 search Training Group (IRTG) Diversity: Mediating Difference in Transcultu
 ral Spaces has pursued an innovative framework of analysis to explore geog
 raphic and symbolic spaces of diversity - and it will continue to do so on
  Sept. 13 and 14\, 2014 during an international conference on 'Espaces de 
 différences: Conflits et cohabitation / Spaces of Difference: Conflicts a
 nd Cohabitation'.   By arguing that there is a plurality of competing spat
 ial frameworks at any given time and by recognizing the constructed nature
  of space as well as the simultaneity and fluidity of various spatial fram
 eworks\, the IRTG Diversity's research attempts to be as inclusive as poss
 ible\, and to explore the mediation of difference in forms of politically 
 defined territories on the local\, the national\, and the regional level. 
  Our actor-based approach in conjunction with the focus on specific geogra
 phic and symbolic spaces offers an innovative research heuristic for the a
 nalysis of co-existing and rival claims about the cultural meaning\, const
 ruction\, and appropriation of space by the multiplicity of actors living 
 in these spaces and shaping them by their modes of interaction.   The IRTG
  Diversity's 2014 conference brings together renowned scholars from Europe
  and North America and the IRTG Diversity's PhD candidates in order to exa
 mine the potentially conflict-ridden dynamic processes that shape localiti
 es of diversity and/or transcultural spaces. The conference's four sub-sec
 tions will deal with:  1) Diversity - Entangled Histories of a Contested C
 oncept 2) Border Crossings and Transcultural Spaces 3) Becoming and Belong
 ing 4) Dynamics of Confrontation and Cohabitationhttp://conference.irtg-di
