The successes of the past seven rounds of the International Conference on Multicultural Discourses held in China, Brazil, the Netherlands, and Romania, respectively, have consolidated the position of Cultural Discourse Studies in the social sciences. 

Mankind is witnessing yet again the centennial moment of global transformation and the world is ridden with grave challenges and great opportunities. 

To answer to these uncertain winds of change, scholars from diverse fields such as communication, media, language, literature, culture, history, international relations, etc. are invited to offer their insights into topics of, but not restricted to:

• Discourses of globalization, cultural equality, interconnection;

• Discourses of security, conflict, war, peace;

• Discourses of protectionism, (in)tangible borders, immigration, racism;

• Discourses of development, cooperation, common prosperity;

• Discourses of digital, multi-modal, cinematic representations;

• Discourses of nuclear armament, climate change, poverty;
