Summer school "China Risen" / École d'été «La Chine éveillée»

The Center for International Research and Studies (CÉRIUM) at Univer
sité de Montréal will be offering, from July 5th to July 10th, for
the fifth consecutive year, an intensive seminar on China in
collaboration with the Anthropology Department.

A dozen experts will present an overview of the rapidly-changing
Chinese reality through the lens of everyday life (environmental
crisis, economic growth, wealth gap, legal dynamics) and from a
political angle, twenty years after Tiananmen, two years after the
Olympic Games and in the year of the Shanghai Universal Expo). You
will find more information about the school at this address:

We would like ask your help in order to get students, NGO members,
civil servants, diplomats, journalists, business people and citizens
to know more about this opportunity. We would be grateful if you
could spread the information among your contacts.

Please note that the course is given entirely in English. There is
also a separate French version of the course.

CFP for Curatorial Dreams: Critics Imagine Exhibitions

Call for Papers

Curatorial Dreams: Critics Imagine Exhibitions

Shelley Ruth Butler & Erica Lehrer, eds.

The academic field of museum studies and the practical sphere of
museology are both in a period of intense growth and ferment, yet
there are unexamined and unresolved tensions between the domains of
theoretical reflection and professional practice. Museum criticism is
rarely constructive; the impulse is to find fault with exhibitions,
most often around questions of representation and politics. Thus, a
foundational body of critical museology associates exhibitions with
the politics of exclusion, containment and self-regulation (eg.
Bennett 1995, Duncan 1991, Karp and Lavine, eds. 1991). But these
critiques often threaten and alienate practitioners, who must
negotiate practical and political constraints even as they themselves
attempt to stretch towards new vistas in their exhibitionary practice
(eg. Macdonald 2006, McCarthy 2007). Further, critical and
pessimistic accounts of exhibitionary politics are at odds with the
sense of optimism expressed by many museum educators and museum
mission statements regarding the potential of museums to contribute to
an inclusive and enriching public sphere (Butler 1999).

Curatorial Dreams explores and innovatively bridges these tensions
between theory and practice. In a unique challenge, we ask critics to
respond conceptually, concretely and imaginatively to their own
critiques, inviting them to step into curators' shoes with empathy and
imagination. Specifically, contributors will envision new exhibitions
and interventions inspired by their own critical approaches to
exhibitions in museums and related heritage and public culture sites.

Contributors to this volume will be asked to:

1) Review their critical work on museums and public representations;

2) Outline an imaginary exhibition that responds to these critiques;

3) Use the exercise to reflect on the value of curatorial dreaming for
both critics and practitioners.

Authors will be asked to title their imaginary exhibitions and
interventions, to have specific sites in mind for their work, and to
have examples of artifacts, texts, performances, or other media.
Authors need not walk readers/visitors through an entire exhibition,
but they must be able to evoke key moments of engagement. In some
cases, authors may imagine a process of exhibition development with
key stakeholders and participants. Contributors will be expected to
make their curatorial goals – typically hidden from the public –
explicit. In this volume, would-be curators will evaluate their
exhibitionary strategies and hoped for outcomes.

Some critics may propose fanciful exhibitions, while others may offer
more realistic, politically astute plans. But Curatorial Dreams
demands that attention be paid to the exhibition/intervention site as
well as the impact of the curators' subject-position in relation to
their proposal. Sites that might be used include establishment
museums, art galleries, community museums and centers, as well as
heritage walks, parks, cafes, transportation systems, advertisement
spaces, or other more 'vernacular' sites. Since much critical
museology is directed at metropolitan, national, and "destination"
museums, a portion of this volume will address these types of sites.
Another portion will include innovative interventions in heritage
sites and vernacular landscapes. We plan to include perspectives from
a variety of scholars who may not have previously envisioned
themselves as curators, from disciplines such as history,
anthropology, sociology, geography, social work, law, art history,
philosophy, cultural studies, and others.

Questions that this volume seeks to engage include:

1. How can critiques of culture and representation be transformed into
exhibitions and public interventions, both within and outside of
museums?

2. What kinds of social issues are exhibitions well positioned to
address? How do curators' social and cultural identities influence the
politics and possibilities of exhibitions.

3. What new curatorial strategies might better encourage and enable
audience engagement with specific sites and key social and political
issues? How can curators navigate social and political constraints
within and beyond their institutions?

4. How does the 'curatorial imagination' differ from academic
criticism, and how might having scholars experiment with curatorship
potentially transform criticism?

5. Can bridging the curator/critic divide help destabilize the
widespread institutional divide in museums between curators and
educators?

Interested contributors should send a proposal (250-500 words) as well
as a bio and CV to the editors: Shelley.butler@mcgill.ca and
elehrer@alcor.concordia.ca

Deadline for proposal submission: June 15, 2010 (early submissions
are encouraged)
Notification of inclusion: mid-July, 2010
Submission due (first draft): November 15. 2010

YCISS Afternoon Seminar Series: Canadian counter piracy and counter terrorism naval operations in East Africa and the Indian Ocean; Cdr Steve Waddell; Wednesday, 26 May 2010 2-3:30pm, Room 626, YRT

YCISS Afternoon Seminar Series:

OP SAIPH: Canadian counter piracy and counter terrorism naval operations
in East Africa and the Indian Ocean

with Cdr Steve Waddell
(Commander HMCS Fredericton)

Since 1991, Canada has deployed ships almost three dozen times to the
neighbourhood of the Indian Ocean and the Arabian Sea to carry out
counter-terrorism and counter-piracy operations. HMCS Fredericton has
spent the last six months ?on-station? with NATO?s multinational maritime
force off the east coast of Africa under Operation SAIPH, where HMCS
Fredericton?s captain (Commander Steven Waddell) and crew prevented and
deterred piracy and terrorism to improve the region?s security and provide
a safer maritime environment.

Commander (Cdr) Steven Waddell will discuss Canada?s leading role in
maritime security as part of its continuing commitment to international
security. Cdr Waddell?s presentation will provide audiences with a rare
opportunity to interact with the ship?s captain, hear his first-hand
accounts and view operational images from this fascinating deployment.

Raised in Temagami, Northern Ontario, Cdr Waddell joined the Canadian Navy
in 1990 as a Maritime Surface and Sub-Surface Officer. Cdr Waddell has
served in several theatres of operation, including the Arabian Gulf and
South West Asia, as well as representing Canada at the Joint Services
Command and Staff College in the United Kingdom, where he earned his
Master?s Degree in Defence Studies through King?s College London. Cdr
Waddell assumed his current position in command of HMCS Fredericton in
January 2009.

The YCISS Afternoon Seminar Series: Palestinian Insecurity: Integration and Emancipation Logics: Dr Joni Aasi Thursday 27 May, 2 - 3.30pm, Room 519

The YCISS Afternoon Seminar Series:
Palestinian Insecurity: Integration and Emancipation Logics

Dr Joni Aasi

In this seminar, Dr Aasi will discuss the new perspectives raised by the
immigration of certain concepts dominant in the security studies of the
post Cold War to Palestine. In other words, what is the epistemic
position of Palestine in these studies? Dr Aasi will argue that the
broader concept of security adopted by critical security studies in the
post-Cold War draws our attention to economic and ecological dimensions of
the Palestinian insecurity, but that as an issue of human insecurity,
Palestinian insecurity is also essentially characterized by the ?fear of
violent death? in the traditional sense.

The seminar will further consider the points of convergence of several
theoretical currents under the umbrella of critical security studies,
including utopian realism. Utopian thinking associates the thinkable and
the possible and reflects a desire of transformation simultaneously of the
reality and of the self. The utopian (critical) approach is useful to
raise question about the reality and its knowledge; about the ?structural
bias? of the discourse on security in general and on security sector
reform in particular (external legitimacy\internal legitimacy); and about
the risk of ?reification? (the risk that an emancipator discourse become a
new structure of domination).

Dr Joni Aasi is a visiting scholar at the York Centre for International
and Security Studies (YCISS) as from April ? September 2010. Dr Aasi is
an Assistant Professor at Bir Zeit University. Since September 2008, Dr
Aasi has been the Dean of Scientific Research at the Palestinian Academy
of Security Sciences, Jericho where he is involved in training Palestinian
military and civilian officials on issues of security sector reform, as
well as theories of security and international law. Dr Aasi is also the
author of several texts and papers in these areas.
