Workshop series: After the Postcolonial Turn: Global Perspectives - "Empire in Latin America"

On the premise that post-colonialism (the theory and scholarly practice) and post-coloniality (the historical condition) have both reached a new stage, this series of informal workshop-discussions will compare the specificities of colonial histories across the globe in order to identify commonalities and differences toward the goal of a new conceptualization of those all-too-well-worn words: colonialism and empire.

Greg Grandin, History, New York University

Discussant: Elizabeth A. Povinelli, Anthropology & Gender Studies, Columbia University

Upcoming in the Workshop Series:
Empire in Southeast Asia - April 11, 2013, 4:00PM-6:00PM, IAB 918
