Call for Papers
First NARS Workshop for Doctoral Researchers
5 February 2027, Finnish Literature Society, Helsinki
Are you writing a doctoral thesis that is related to questions of nationalism and nationhood? If yes, please consider presenting your work in the first NARS Workshop for Doctoral Researchers. The workshop is organized by the Research Council of Finland Centre of Excellence in Nationalism Research in the Humanities (NARS), which was launched at the beginning of 2026 and operates at the Finnish Literature Society, Tampere University, the University of Helsinki and the Åbo Akademi University. For more information on NARS and its research themes, please visit NARS web site.
The NARS researchers will provide comments for each paper, and the event will be a good chance to get to know other doctoral researchers in the field. The one-day workshop will be held in English at the premises of the Finnish Literature Society (Hallituskatu 1, Helsinki). The event will start at 10 am and the program will be announced closer to the date. There is no participation fee, but the participants are expected to cover their own travel costs and meals.
Please send an abstract of max. 500 words through this link by 6 December 2026.
The abstract should include your research topic, main research questions, key sources, methodology and theoretical premises. Please describe clearly how your work relates to nationalism research. Proposals from all disciplines are warmly welcome, but the commentators’ main expertise will be in the humanities.
The decisions of accepted proposals will be made before Christmas. Researchers presenting their work will be asked to send a short paper of max. six pages by 20 January 2027. The papers will be circulated among all the participants.
