The overarching theme of the conference will be United in Diversity, echoing the official motto of the European Union. Questions to be addressed will include: how is diversity represented, contested, and reframed within European popular culture? And how is European integration reflected in the production of popular culture, past and present? In addition to this theme, EUPOP 2025 will explore European popular culture in all its various forms. This includes, but is by no means limited to, the following topics: European Film (past and present), Television, Music, Costume and Performance, Celebrity, The Body, Fashion, New Media, Popular Literature and Graphic Novels, Queer Studies, Sport, Curation, Digital Culture, the idea of European identity and its relation to popular culture. A special emphasis, this year, will be on topics such as popular culture borders, politics, forms of propaganda and influencing, and methodological framings within cross-disciplinary thinking.
