For the first time in East-Central Europe, the European Society for Periodical Research (ESPRit) convenes its 2022 (10th<\/sup>) international conference in Budapest, Hungary, to focus on the following theme:\u00a0Periodicals beyond Hierarchies: Challenging Geopolitical and Social \u201cCentres\u201d and \u201cPeripheries\u201d through the Press.<\/p>\n

At the same time, other journals provided means to maintain cultural and political hegemony of \u201ccentral\u201d social classes or global powers.<\/p>\n

We invite scholars to reflect on the ways periodicals represented, created, maintained, or challenged, even deconstructed the notions of \u201ccentre\u201d and \u201cperiphery\u201d as related to the status of their community, audience, editorial board or geographical areas.<\/p>\n

We are particularly interested in encounters, and negotiations between geopolitical or social \u201ccentres\u201d and \u201cperipheries\u201d taking place in periodicals. The conference should focus on matters, including but not limited to, such as:<\/p>\n
