        Subject: [DHd2025] Call for Papers "Under Construction", March 3-7, 2025

Dear colleagues,

I am very pleased to send out the Call for Papers for the DHd2025 "Under
Construction" in Bielefeld, taking place from March 3-7, 2025, today!

Anyone looking at our world at the moment is looking at a world in visible
upheaval. The experience of war in Europe, the pandemic and urgent efforts to
adapt to real global warming are clearly crisis-ridden, but stand alongside
fundamentally productive global transformations such as datafication, the
disruption of gender roles and the questioning of general centre-periphery
models. The feeling of "being under construction" is widespread: Society and
culture are being remodelled. This means uncertainty, which is not only a
threat, but also offers room for innovation. With our conference motto, we would
like to invite you to combine the expertise of the humanities, cultural studies
and data sciences in order to address the productive uncertainty of "being under
construction".

Possible topics for submissions are:
- Methodological and technical perspectives for the future
- The role of data librarians
- Artificial intelligence and the humanities
- Digital humanities in public discourse
- Citizen science and digital humanities
- Studies on reception and user data
- Findings from the past years of DH in German-speaking countries: review of
trends, successes and failures
- Standardisation efforts such as standardised vocabularies, ontologies, markup
languages, etc.
- Data practices, such as questions of digitisation, datafication, databases,
metadata, etc.
- Data and methodological criticism
Beyond these focus areas, submissions on all topics from the DH as well as
presentation and discussion of project results are welcome.

Formalities:
The following can be submitted:
- Presentations (submission of at least 1500, maximum 2000 words)
- Presentations in the Doctoral Consortium (submission of at least 500, maximum
750 words)
- Panels (minimum three, maximum six participants, one submission of at least
1200, maximum 1500 words)
- Posters (submission of at least 500, maximum 750 words)
- Pre-symposia, half-day or full-day workshops (submission of at least 1200,
maximum 1500 words)

The deadline for submissions is 24 July 2024 (23:59, CEST). Please note: As in
previous years, this deadline will not be extended.

The detailed CfP can be found in the attachment to this mail.
