Meeting Description:

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

The motto of the 58th ICA: “New challenges, New spaces” is intended 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. To
mention just a few examples, the issues of cognitive capitalism, the
proliferation of digital devices and the dominance of the infosphere;
increasing migratory movements; global financial instability, the
deterioration of democracy and human rights; the spread of violence in
all its forms; new trends in the field of arts and humanities; The
threats posed by climate change and the spread of infectious or other
diseases are topics that, together with the other fields of knowledge
traditionally present in our Congresses, will allow us to analyze,
from a multidisciplinary and pluralistic perspective, a wide range of
topics, phenomena and processes typical of social sciences, humanities
and related disciplines. The central theme of the 58th ICA is intended
as a common denominator in order to provide the necessary space to
accommodate all the thematic axes that are proposed in this First
Circular. 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.

The Organizing Committee of the 58th ICA would like to take this
opportunity to express its immense gratitude to the Permanent
Committee and the General Assembly of the 57th ICA, held in Foz de
Iguazu, Brazil, for having trusted Serbia and granting the city of
Novi Sad the privilege of hosting the International Congress of
Americanists. Organizing an event of this magnitude is a great honor
for us and, of course, a challenge that we will meet with great
enthusiasm and firm commitment. We are convinced that we will be able
to continue the organizational quality, innovation and impact achieved
in the Congresses that have preceded us.

The headquarters of the 58th ICA will be the University of Novi Sad
(UNS), located on the banks of the Danube River in a central area of
the city. The University campus is an architecturally compact area
that allows for easy and quick internal transportation, less than a
kilometer from the historical center of the city where most of the
hotel, gastronomic and cultural offerings of Novi Sad are located. The
Nikola Tesla international airport in Belgrade is less than an hour
away on the highway that connects the two most important cities in the
country. The airports of Timisoara, Budapest and Vienna are also not
too far away.

It is noteworthy that the University of Novi Sad and the co-organizing
faculties of the Congress – the Faculty of Philosophy and its
Ibero-American Center CIBAM, the Faculty of Technical Sciences, the
Faculty of Sciences and the Faculty of Technology –have the necessary
infrastructure that fully meets the requirements for this type of
events.
