Cultural Heritage Diplomacy: How Nations use Historic Sites for Political Ends - November 25
événement/event
le français suit
2015-2016 series on HERITAGE AND SOCIAL JUSTICE
Why exactly is ISIS destroying the cultural past of Iraq and Syria, and why
is finding a resolution so difficult? How does the funding of maritime
archaeology off the coast of Sri Lanka and Kenya connect with the disputes
now brewing in the South China Sea? And why is Japan investing hundreds of
millions of dollars in heritage conservation projects around the world? In
what ways are such examples linked? Are we seeing the emergence of a new
arena of international relations, one that uses the past in new and
unfamiliar ways?

Friends of the UW-Madison Libraries: Grants to Scholars
Friends of the UW-Madison Libraries: Grants to Scholars
Grants to Scholars is the Friends program which helps to fund visiting
scholars with particular research needs in the University of
Wisconsin-Madison Libraries. The Friends award a handful of grants to
scholars annually, each of which is generally for one month's
duration, for research in the humanities, sciences, and related fields
appropriate to the libraries' collection strengths. Awards are made up
to $2,000 for recipients from North America, and $3,000 for those from
elsewhere in the world. The purpose is to foster the high-level use of
the University of Wisconsin–Madison Libraries' rich holdings, and to
make them better known and more accessible to a wider circle of
scholars. The annual application deadline is February 1 of any year.
Generally, applicants must have a Ph.D. or be able to demonstrate a
record of solid intellectual accomplishment. Scholars and graduate
students who have completed all requirements except the dissertation
are also eligible. Applicants' proposals should state the specific
areas and collections to be used in our libraries and provide
information as to why these collections will be of unique benefit to
their research. The grants to scholars are designed primarily to help
provide access to UW-Madison library resources for people who live
beyond commuting distance. Preference is given to younger researchers
who are within 10 years of completing their Ph.D. or terminal degree,
and to scholars who reside outside a 150 mile radius of Madison. The
grantee is expected to be in residence during the term of the award,
which may be taken up at any time during the year.

Please contact our office with any questions, we can be reached at

Call for Applications “On Energy”, Research Residency Program, Banff Research in Culture, May 30-June 24, 2016
Call for Applications "On Energy", Research Residency Program, Banff
Research in Culture, May 30-June 24, 2016
"On Energy" invites participants in the fields of visual art,
architecture, design, literature, humanities, social sciences, and
physical sciences to consider energy; its conceptual, corporal, and
cultural development since its thermodynamic invention, and the sort
of materialism that can emerge when energy is redefined in a
postindustrial capitalist society. This residency asks artists and
researchers to collectively address energy's historical figures and
futures, its visual and social economy, and its capacity to disfigure,
since energy is not a thing, but rather a representation of the force
embedded in matter and the relations between materials.
Banff Research in Culture (BRiC) is a research residency program
designed for scholars engaged in advanced theoretical research on
themes and topics in culture. BRiC is designed to offer researchers
with similar interests from different disciplinary and professional
backgrounds an opportunity to exchange opinions and ideas.
Participants are encouraged to develop new research, artistic,
editorial, and authorial projects, both individually and in connection
with others.
During the residency, participants will attend lectures, seminars, and
workshops offered by visiting faculty. The residency will help to
develop new approaches toward the study and analysis of culture, as
well as creating lasting networks of scholars who might use this
opportunity as the basis for future collaborative work. This program
is open to current PhD researchers and post-doctoral researchers
(faculty up to tenure) beginning their careers.
Application Deadline: December 16, 2015
Applications information can be found at:

CASCA/SANA 2016: Panel CFP - Solidarity with who?: On the Challenges of Studying Up
Solidarity with who?: On the Challenges of Studying Up
Session to be submitted for the CASCA/SANA meetings at Dalhousie
University, May 11 - 15, 2016
Anthropologists often position themselves in solidarity with marginal
groups, frequently represented by our research participants. Yet, for
several decades, anthropologists have also focused on studying
powerful institutions, including sites of scientific and technological
practice, government bureaucracies, and legal and policing systems.
Through this practice of "studying-up," anthropologists unpack the
meanings and practices of those operating within and through often
opaque institutional systems, providing a means of understanding and
often critiquing operations of power (Nader 1989). Yet, conducting
ethnographies of powerful actors and institutions can put us at odds
with the interests, goals, and politics of our research participants.
This panel invites papers that explore the complexities of enacting
solidarities while "studying-up," including discussions of productive
and problematic solidarities in the field and beyond, different means
and forms of solidarity, analyses of critical versus collaborative
approaches to ethnography, and considerations of relationships other
than solidarity in fieldwork.
Please send inquiries and abstracts to Samantha Breslin
(sdbreslin@mun.ca) by January 8, 2016.
