Famine Studies Conference- The Politics of Famine

Activity: Academic conferences and events (excluding conference publications)Other academic event (organisation, presentation, attendance)

Description

Famines, past and present, are caused and shaped by politics. They are deeply entangled with issues of (in)equality, marginalization, patterns of violence and other power dynamics, as well as being contexts in which agency, activism and everyday resistance become visible. We are eager for conference submissions to explore a range of topics from how famine is and has been remembered, narrated, normalized, and contested within communities that have experienced it, to how it shapes or is forgotten in national and international discourses.
