Un-settled Histories, Certain Remembrances, Uncertain Futures: Power of/
over the Past
The panel raises a number of questions pertaining to unsettled pasts, when
the present might be fearful, and the future uncertain. The
focus is on three main themes: a. how radical transformations reshape how
the past is remembered, especially when lives and livelihoods have been
unsettled by more powerful actors; b) the interplay between the private
and public constructions of the past; c) the importance of power
structures and the political context in understanding how
memories/histories are produced and received.
The panel is seeking two more faculty members as presenters and/or
discussant.
Deadline February 10, 2014
