UCLA Young Research Library Presentation Room 11345
UCLA Trans-Pacific WorkshopFriday June 5 & Saturday June 6
Hosted by Professor Katsuya Hirano, UCLA
The 2nd Annual UCLA Trans-Pacific Workshop will center on the theme of “occupation”(領有) and “misappropriation”(横領). Last year’s conference, entitled “The Future and a New Horizon of Knowledge”, led us to consider the ways in which nationalism and neo-liberalism since 9.11 and 3.11 have reconstituted everyday life in their own images by hollowing out our memory, futurity, creativity, hope, dignity, and human rights. With this in mind, we hope to continue the debate by focusing on the key words “occupation”and “misappropriation", while including a diversity of other contemporary and historical issues.
