A special symposium organized by resident CCA postdoctoral fellows Rachel Miller and Jasmine Samara. Open to the public. Lunch served beforehand; reception to follow. Contact The "Citizenship and Classification" symposium brings together scholars from a range of disciplines to consider the role of classification procedures and ideologies in the construction of citizenship categories over the last two hundred years. Speakers will consider the practices and assumptions that have defined citizenship across diverse geographic and historical contexts, from the regulation of identity documents to suffrage and incarceration. What frameworks undergird the category of "the citizen," and how does this category interact with other classificatory projects? How can a comparative approach shed light on the possibilities and limitations of citizenship? Participants: Cassius Adair (Virginia Humanities) J. Kēhaulani Kauanui (Wesleyan University) Benedito Machava (Princeton University) Yuko Miki (Fordham University) Emmanuelle Saada (Columbia University) Jimmy Sweet (Rutgers University) Neni Panourgiá (Columbia University) |
