Anticolonial Solidarity: Political Theory and Global History in Dialogue (Limited Access)
Political Theory and Global History in Dialogue” commences an interdisciplinary dialogue on the central question—what is anticolonial solidarity? It is important to pose this question now, when appeals to “solidarity” proliferate among politicians and public health officials seeking to legitimate otherwise unpopular mobility restrictions. Their picture of solidarity in elite frameworks of nationalist-communitarianism or liberal-internationalism, however, contrasts sharply with ways of seeing solidarity typical of transnational anticolonial movements. Engaged citizens and activists continue to contest local injustices rooted in global structures of European colonialism and the legacies of informal imperialism: from the so-called Mediterranean “refugee crisis” to state-corporate invasion of indigenous territory at Standing Rock or Unist’o’ten. From this perspective, the rhetorical performance of a “crisis of solidarity” occludes the vibrant history and present of more radical, transformative practices of anticolonial solidarity. We thus propose to approach our question by thinking about both solidarity and anticolonialism together, as well as reflecting on the importance of histories of freedom, oppression, and resistance in the formation of contemporary solidarities.
The Effects of Global Populism: Assessing Impact on the International Order (Registration Mandatory)
This online workshop will bring together a group of twenty International Relations (IR) scholars who share a common interest in research on the international dimension of contemporary populism. During two days, participants will offer critical insights on the implications of the rise of populist leaders in global politics. Organized in four roundtables, participants will discuss the best approaches to study the effects of populism on foreign policy and diplomacy, international cooperation and regional integration, international security and human rights, and international economy and trade. The workshop aims to contribute to the growing debate, both within and outside the SCRIPTS Cluster, about the potential impact of populist phenomena on the international order established after World War II and consolidated in the post-Cold War era.
