Dear all, We are pleased to announce the 'Knowledge Formations and Colonial Encounters in the Arctic’ Workshop on 9-10 January at the Scott Polar Research Institute, Cambridge. Please find the programme, abstracts and further details about registration on our website: https://www.arcticcultures.org/category/news-and-events/. Please do come along if you can and do send on the details on to any colleagues that you think might be interested. Attendance is free but prior registration is required please. This workshop is part of a series of research events organised as part of the ERC Arctic Cultures project. It brings together team members, leading international experts and interested scholars into dialogue around the themes of the project. The focus for this workshop specifically is to examine the co-production of Arctic knowledge formations through encounters between indigenous inhabitants and non-indigenous actors. Presentations will draw upon empirical research and theorisation to investigate spatial formations of the Arctic and the role of Northern actors and institutions. Speakers include: Johanne Bruun, Kirsten Hastrup, Nanna Kaalund, Jonathan King, Peter Kulchyski, Peter Martin, Alex Partridge, Pitseolak Pfeifer, Richard Powell, Søren Rud, Pamela Stern, Jaanika Vider and John Woitkowitz. Thanks very much, Richard, Nanna and Peter -- Dr. Richard Powell ERC Consolidator Grant, ARCTIC CULT, 2017-22 @ArcticCult www.arcticcultures.org Scott Polar Research Institute University of Cambridge Lensfield Road Cambridge CB2 1ER [log in to unmask] +44 (0)1223 336551 http://www.spri.cam.ac.uk/people/powell/ ######################################################################## To unsubscribe from the MERSENNE list, click the following link: https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?SUBED1=MERSENNE&A=1
