The Genocide Prevention Program and The Program on History, Memory and Conflict have the great pleasure of inviting you a series of events titled: The Remembrance of Past Genocides.
The roundtable on “The Remembrance of Past Genocides: A Conversation on the Memories and Politics of Genocide” will feature three leading experts on the politics of genocide and commemoration, Tamra Pearson d’Estree, Charles Ingrao, and Thomas de Waal. The discussion will consider the cases of Native American genocide, Bosnian genocide, the Armenian genocide and others. Karina V. Korostelina will moderate the discussion.
These interdisciplinary events will bring together a varied audience of stakeholders from academics, practitioners, students, and members of the S-CAR community to examine and expose the legacy and politics of various cases and aspects of past genocides that are often overlooked in traditional discussions on the topic of genocide remembrance. Therefore, they will not only be an opportunity to initiate an innovative and interactive dialogue between participants surrounding the history and memory of various cases of genocide but they shall also provide a space in which to consider how the memory of genocide and mass atrocity impacts and shapes contemporary politics.
