The Center for Advanced Latin American Studies (CALAS) is opening the call for applications to participate in the international conference “Horizontality: Knowledge and Education to Overcome Inequalities and Polarization,” to be held at the National University of San Martín, Buenos Aires, from March 17 to 19, 2026.
This Platform for Dialogue, organized by CALAS in association with the Indian Branch of the Max Weber Foundation (MWF Delhi), seeks to understand work processes and capital-labor relations embedded in informational regimes. In this way, we highlight the dimensions of knowledge in the study of labor, focusing specifically on the knowledges and practices of workers and laboring populations, as opposed to the knowledge about labor generated by capital and the State.
Esta Plataforma para el Diálogo se centra en la producción cultural, artística y textual en zonas fronterizas, desafiando los discursos nacionales monolingües, blancos y urbanos. Frente al endurecimiento de políticas migratorias y la criminalización de la migración, lo que se busca en este evento es visibilizar las demandas de comunidades migrantes y fronterizas mediante un enfoque interdisciplinario, promoviendo el diálogo transnacional sobre lenguas híbridas, como el portuñol, guarañol, mapudungu, kichwa, spanglish, entre otras.
