This doctoral course examines the legacy of the Bandung Conference as a geopolitical movement, a historical moment, and a critical trope for analyzing contemporary global events and South-South relations.
In this three-day intensive, multidisciplinary program, participants will have the opportunity to explore the significance of the Bandung Conference, engage with critical debates that cluster around it, and examine how it provides a framework for studying decolonization.
The course will also focus on analyzing the interconnected and intersectional solidarities and movements within the Global South and the Global North. Furthermore, it will investigate the production of knowledge in, for, and about the Global South.
