- Cultural Politics: Interdisciplinary Perspectives
- This is open to the public.
- This seminar functions as a forum for lectures and intellectual exchanges on cultural politics across disciplines and national or historical boundaries. The main focus of the seminar is on European cultural politics in the era of globalization. Synchronic as well as diachronic explorations of current debates on the tensions between hegemonizing and marginal, local, or minor cultural discourses are presented and commented upon by policy makers and scholars in a variety of fields including: critical theory, philosophy, anthropology, political science, history, and law. The seminar is co-chaired by Panagiotis Roilos, professor of comparative literature and of Greek studies, and Dimitrios Yatromanolakis, associate professor in the Department of Classics at The Johns Hopkins University.
