Workshop: Archives and Museums Born in the Empires The BCDSS invites all interested to this Bilingual International Colloquium. Participants will discuss the multiple ways in which written, visual, audiovisual archives and, of course, art that emanate from the contexts of imperial, slave and colonial expansion, can not only be the object of postcolonial litigation, both academically and politically, but they are also, paradoxically, devices for the construction of new dialogues between academia, society and the State and its public policies in order to imagine actions built collectively with communities, public and private sectors, through the use of archives as exceptional primary sources for the study of African, African American, Latin American, Asian and African societies even European ones for the sake of their signification, appreciation and dissemination. https://www.dependency.uni-bonn.de/en/events/workshop-archives-and-museums-born-in-the-empires https://www.dependency.uni-bonn.de/@@site-logo/Logo BCDSS_web.png
