We are beginning a new online reading and discussion group for AHSS postgraduate students who are interested in postcolonial studies. The group will meet monthly for 1 hour sessions, during which we will review key texts in the field and will discuss recent publications associated with postcolonial theory and cultural production. We welcome all postgraduate researchers, faculty, and staff.
For the first meeting, which will be held on Monday 4th October at 1-2pm we will examine Achille Mbembe’s “Necropolitics.” (attached; full citation Mbembe, Achille. “Necropolitics,” Public Culture, vol.15, no.1, Winter 2003, pp.11-40).
For registration and for further details about the reading group, please contact Sandrine.Ndahiro at Sandrine.Ndahiro@ul.ie .
Please feel free to relay the message to anyone who you think might be interested in the reading group.
