"No (Disciplinary) Limits": A Workshop for the 'Pasts in the Present' Project
The ‘Pasts in the Present’ project revolves around two fundamental questions: what is the cultural and social impact of former eras in the 21st century, and how does this interact with academic discourses? These questions have become increasingly important in the 21st century as ideologies of nation, often connected to racism and intolerance, have weaponised ideas about the past for contemporary political ends--and implicated academic disciplines in doing so.
