2do CONCURSO INTERNATIONAL CARTOON CONTEST-SINALOA 2013

1. PARTICIPATION

The Contest is open to all cartoonists from all over the world and beyond.

2. THEME: Migration

The concept of emigration has existed since the first hominids learned to walk. To move around, for social

reasons or just for surviving, has always foot-printed the route of our species. Since our remote African origin

until today, humans have explored the whole planet forming a wide range of settlements, apparently different,

but with the same necessities. Nowadays, for some countries of the so called first world, immigration is

contemplated almost like a plague: solid metal walls have been built to protect their borders and tough strict

control systems are used in their customs. However, migration can´t be stopped and human beings, the direct

descendents of hominids that knew no frontiers, will continue to move around the world.

3. THE PRIZES

1st Prize: $2000 US dollars.

2nd Prize: $1500 US dollars.

3rd Prize: $1000 US dollars.

Winners will be notified by e-mail after 21

NEW DEADLINE: 15 OCTOBER 2013 / KATILIM SÜRESÝ 15 EKÝM 2013 TARÝHÝNE UZATILDI!

Deðerli Katýlýmcýlar!

Ön Seçici Kurul olarak yarýþmamýzýn süresini 15 Ekim 2013’e kadar uzatma kararý aldýk. Bunun nedeni, gelen güzel iþlere raðmen „Vatandaþlýk" konusunun anlaþýldýðý konusundaki kuþkularýmýzdýr. Konumuz „Göç, Göçmen, Sýnýr Ötesi, Uyum, Deðiþim vs." deðildir. Diliniz, dininiz, ýrkýnýz ne olursa olsun bir sivil ülke sýnýrlarý içinde yaþýyorsanýz ve baþka ülkelerden gelmiþ olsanýz bile o ülkenin „birincil" vatandaþlarýyla ayný haklara ve statüye sahip olmalýsýnýz. Þanslýysanýz, iþ bulmuþsanýz ve vergi veriyorsanýz kültür þokuna takýlmadan farklý yaþam tarzlarýna da saygýlýysanýz o zaman „vatandaþ" olarak adaletten ve eþitlikten söz edilebilinir.
Yarýþmamýza, vatandaþlýk kavramýný esas alan, vatandaþlýðý tüm boyutlarýyla irdeleyen, içinde vatandaþ olarak varolduðumuz, refah toplumu veya sivil toplumu bireylerini „vatandaþ" olarak ele alan çizgilerinizi bekliyoruz. Ýktidarý seçme anlamýna da gelen vatandaþlýðý artýlarýyla eksileriyle masaya yatýran çizgileriniz için 20 gününüz daha var.

Dear valuable cartoonists,

Our Preliminary jury decided to postpone the deadline to 15th October. The reason is as follow: even though we have received beautiful works, we have doubts about the subject "citizenship" which is not covered in most of the cartoons as it should be, The theme of our contest is "Citizenship," it is not "immigrants, immigration, traveling to other borders, integration, segregation, etc; i.e, whatever language, religion, race you have, as long as you decided to live in a civilized society, even if you move there from other places, you can have same rights and statues together with "original" citizens. In addition if you were lucky to find a work, begun giving tax, learned respect to different lifestyle without having so big cultural- shocks, you can have benefits of being citizen and can share same legal and juridicial rights as citizen.
Our contest is looking for cartoons also based on citizenship with differences. Citizens elect the politicians, and even if they seem sometimes to ignore some groups sometimes, they work for you. On one side of the coin you can have "welfare" and may have to use benefits of being in a civil-society, but on the other side sometimes welfare can be "warfare" for some people and you can observe that the same government you vote have different treatments to some groups in the society. So, we are looking forward to see your works on "citizenship" in a broad sense. Remember again our contest is on "Citizenship," not on "immigrants, immigration, traveling to other borders, integration, segregation, etc.
Thank you for your support, understanding and your help to focus on citizenship-theme.
