SUMMARY:Comparative Empires: Feminist Meditations
DESCRIPTION:Histories of empire have been tethered over-determinedly to singular histories of nation-states\, temporalities and/or geopolitics. Rather than locate empire as a stable or temporal concept\, the colloquium attends to the imaginative possibilities offered by a turn to a more comparative relationship to empire within a south-south framework. To do so\, we turn to two clusters of critical attachments that are rarely configured through and against the language(s) of empire (1) How do we understand empire delinked from locality\, and locality delinked from geopolitical territory? (2) How do we attend to a politics of comparative empires that would be less about given political identities and geographies and more about vernacular epistemologies shaping\, social and human collectivities? To attend to these issues\, the colloquium foregrounds south-south engagement and brings together work on empire from South Asia\, African diaspora studies and aboriginal/indigenous histories. \n  \nVIDEO: \n \n  \n \nPHOTOS: \nIf you have trouble viewing above images\, you may view this album directly on Flickr. \n\n  \nProgram\n10:00 AM – Introductory Remarks\nAnjali Arondekar\, Feminist Studies\, UC Santa Cruz \n10:10 AM – “Silent Incantations “\nRonaldo Wilson\, Literature\, UC Santa Cruz \n10:30 AM – “A Minor History of Empire: Indenture\, Abolition\, and the Post-bellum Polity” \nMrinalini Sinha\, History\, University of Michigan \n12:00 PM – Lunch \n1:30 PM – “Engaging Geontopower\, Films by the Karrabing Film Collective”\nElizabeth Povinelli\, Anthropology\, Columbia University\nRespondent: Mayanthi Fernando\, Anthropology\, UC Santa Cruz \n3:00 PM – Tea Break \n3:30 PM – “An Ethereal Girl in an Imperial World: Inside U.S. Empire with Grace Halsell”\nRobin D.G.
