Call for Papers
"Belonging"
May 22-23, 2025
Taube Department of Jewish Studies at the University of Wrocław (room 115) and online
Submission Deadline: March 3, 2025

The Students' Association “Sznirele Perele” operating within the Department of Jewish Studies at the University of Wrocław is pleased to announce its upcoming student and PhD candidate conference under the title "Belonging." We invite submissions that engage with the complex concept of belonging in various disciplines, historical periods, and geographic contexts.
The notion of "belonging" is relevant to numerous themes, including identity, community, and cultural homogeneity or diversity. We are particularly interested in multifaceted and complex phenomena related to belonging. Geographical and identitarian belonging both shape one’s perception of the world, and these two spheres don’t always map onto one another.
While the conference is hosted by the Department of Jewish Studies, we also welcome papers exploring non-Jewish perspectives on the topic of Jewish belonging as well as Jewish perspectives on the topic of non-Jewish belonging. We invite young scholars not only from Jewish Studies, but also from other disciplines, e.g., history, sociology, literature, anthropology, cultural studies and international relations.

"Wrocław probably doesn’t come to mind right away when you think of Jewish heritage sites in Poland.[...]
This fall, the Department is opening its doors to international students who don’t know Polish thanks to its International MA Program in Eastern European Jewish Studies, taught entirely in English. The Program’s three-semester curriculum is dedicated to the in-depth exploration of three main themes of East European Jewish life."

"Does your Jewish day school expect students to understand Yiddish terms? When learning about Jewish practices, which customs and traditions are discussed? What does “Jewish food” look like at your school?

These are some of the questions that JIMENA: Jews Indigenous to the Middle East and North Africa poses to Jewish day schools as the first stage — a self-assessment — in its Sephardi & Mizrahi Education Toolkit, a new guide released on Thursday offering “content, resources, and strategies” to better teach Sephardi and Mizrahi culture and history and to make students of all backgrounds feel more welcomed and included."

Working on #Haredi material often means encounters like the one I had earlier this week. After performing #Yiddish Bais Yaakov songs from interwar Poland as part of a conference on Bais Yaakov, I was approached by a member of the community who had been at the performance. She told me that our choir was cultural appropriation. When I reminded her that, as we had said in our introduction, all of us had attended BY schools, she said "but you left it, so it's cultural appropriation."

It's really wild that I'm presenting a paper on this topic on Monday. Wish I could go tell 12th grade me how 35-year-old me would use her high school materials and experiences.
