Performances in the (Re)production of Nations
The 21st Annual ASEN Conference - Forging the Nation: Rituals and
Performances in the (Re)production of Nations
April 5-7, 2011, London School of Economics
The Association for the Study of Ethnicity and Nationalism (ASEN) is
holding its 21st Annual Conference, entitled "Forging the Nation", from
the 5th â€" 7th of April 2011 at the London School of Economics and
Political Science.
The fundamental purpose of this conference is to address the role of
performances and rituals in the production and reproduction of national
identity. This is an important issue for the study of nations and
nationalism, however, it remains under-theorised. It is therefore the
intention of the conference to gain a deeper understanding of this issue
by moving beyond written texts.
