58th International Congress of Americanists - 150 years of the ICA

First Call for Proposals

The Organizing Committee of the 58th International Congress of Americanists (ICA) warmly welcomes the world academic community and extends a most cordial invitation for the participation in the 58th ICA edition to be held at the University of Novi Sad (Serbia) from 30 June to 4 July 2025.

We must point out that, in addition to maintaining periodic continuity to the International Congresses of Americanists, it has been a great honor to receive the privilege of celebrating the 150th anniversary of the ICA in the Balkans.

The motto of the 58th ICA: “New challenges, New spaces” is meant as a prompt to reflect on contemporary reality on a global scale and to develop viable theoretical and practical proposals to face the disturbing current challenges in all areas of our social existence. The central theme of the 58th ICA is intended as a common denominator in order to provide the necessary space to house all the thematic axes that are proposed in this First Call. For us, it is of vital importance that on this occasion we can add a Balkan perspective to Americanism thus enriching the great variety of hermeneutical perspectives around the topics that will be discussed at the Congress.

We attach the First Call for Proposals and we thank you for disseminating the Call. All the details and information of interest can be found on the Congress website:
