Subject Fields: 

Nationalism History / Studies, Ethnic History / Studies, Sociology, Political History / Studies

The Association for the Study of Ethnicity and Nationalism (ASEN) will host its first ever summer school from 5th to 12th June at the University of Zadar in Croatia, on the topic of 'Nations and Nationalism in the Contemporary World'.

Nationalist ideologies and nationalist movements have shaped the modern world. With the collapse of imperial structures, the nation-state has established itself as the only legitimate form of territorial rule and nationalism as the principal mode of political legitimacy. Furthermore, a variety of nationalist ideas and practices have become normalised and embedded in everyday life – from education, mass media and public sphere to sporting events, cuisine and tourism. However, this organisational and ideological omnipotence of nationalism largely remains invisible to most people with nationalism gaining traction only when it becomes aggressive and excessive. For example, until recently many analysts were adamant that globalisation has diminished the influence of nation-states and that there is no room for nationalism in an ever-globalising cosmopolitan world. Nevertheless, the last few years have shattered these interpretations as aggressive nationalist idioms have become prevalent throughout the globe: from the rise of economic protectionist policies, elections of right-wing populist leaders and parties, the upsurge of anti-globalist rhetoric and the proliferation of nativist and anti-immigrant movements.

The main aim of this summer school in Zadar, Croatia is to explore and analyse the social dynamics of nation-states and nationalisms through time and space. More specifically the ambition is to provide answers to the following questions: Why has nationalism proved to be such a potent, protean and durable force in the modern age? Why has the nation-state established itself as the central organising mode of social and political life in the last two hundred years? What role globalisation plays in generating populist and nativist backlashes? Do contemporary populist and nativist movements differ from their 19th and 20th century counterparts? The course will also analyse the origins, historical transformations and inherent malleability of nationalist ideologies. We encourage the participation of students and scholars in the social sciences, law and humanities and other fields and disciplines studying social phenomena such as divisions, cleavages, conflicts, borders, ethnicity and diversity.

This summer school will be organised as a rigorous academic interdisciplinary programme structured around lectures, workshops and conference-oriented presentations of scholarly research. Summer school participants will engage in active discussions on the theoretical, methodological and practical issues of research in nationalism studies. Graduate and postgraduate students’ presentations are also welcome. In addition, the course offers personal inter-cultural experiences of international students and faculty from other contexts in the beautiful setting of an ancient city of Zadar.

Confirmed speakers include Marco Antonsich, Loughborough University (UK), Saša Božić, University of Zadar (Croatia), Miguel Centeno, Princeton University (USA), Lea David, University College Dublin (Ireland), Jon Fox, Bristol University (UK), Jonathan Hearn, Edinburgh University (UK), Deborah Kaple, Princeton University (USA), Simona Kuti, Institute for Migration and Ethnic Studies, Zagreb, (Croatia), Gezim Krasniqi, Edinburgh University (UK), Siniša Malešević, University College, Dublin (Ireland), Michael Skey, Loughborough University (UK), and Srdjan Vučetić, University of Ottawa (Canada).

About Oral History Summer School: 

Oral History Summer School was established in Hudson, New York, in 2012, as an immersive training program to help students from varied fields––writers, social workers, radio producers, artists, teachers, human rights workers––make use of oral history as an ethical interview practice in their lives and work. 

ONLINE Summer School "Music as Heritage: an Interdisciplinary Approach in Theory and Practice" (June 28 to July 7, 2021)

 

Following the great success of the previous two editions of the Music as Heritage course (face-to-face in 2019 and online in 2020), in 2021 our main goal is unchanged: to provide insight into the methodology and approaches of modern musicology as an integral part of heritage studies. We use music as a tool for analyzing and describing social changes, the interaction of state policies, culture, cultural heritage, and audiences. The course builds on a highly interdisciplinary academic approach to modern musicology, thus, it is open to other fields of study.

This summer the course will place its focus on Béla Bartók, one of the most influential composers of the 20th century and one of the forefathers of ethnomusicology today.

The course relies greatly on both CEU lecturers, Bard College and SOAS faculty members, and leading scholars in the field such as Jonathan Stock from University College Cork as well as Martin Stokes from King’s College London.

Exploring heritage management

A major goal of the course is to explore various aspects of musical heritage management. The course will place emphasis on audience development through focused, yet socially conscious cultural policies, and will present a contemporary and viable approach to these issues. We will further examine the essential role of music in social engagement and public outreach.

Building on the feedback of previous courses, this course provides an in-depth focus on practical aspects of musical heritage management. This way, participants may benefit from understanding industry trends and events through a data-driven approach and through social analysis.

Online course 

Last year, we successfully adapted our project to an Online Summer Course with an innovative, immersive curriculum, and online teaching methods. If health regulations still will not allow in-person meetings, participants and lecturers will meet online again. The academic program, duration and time of the course will remain unchanged. The traditional lecture format will be replaced by shorter sessions, including multimedia presentations, pre-recorded material, and structured, smaller group discussions. The field trip will be substituted by digital field research, an exciting and innovative research methodology that is a must-know for ethnomusicologists of the information era. All this will be implemented on an easy-to-handle, integrated, multifunctional e-learning platform.

Application deadline: March 22, 2021

Shaking the Family Tree: Oral History, Family History and Insider Interviews

Dates: Jan 11 - 14

Location: Drop Forge & Tool, Hudson New York

Instructors: Suzanne Snider

Tuition: $575 ($500 for friends/family members who apply together)

Application + More information, here

 

For many of us, family is the obvious—and sometimes most complicated—place to start our work as oral historians. In this workshop, participants will learn how to use oral history to document and preserve their family stories. We’ll discuss common challenges: convincing your family to participate, delving into sensitive subjects and secrets, and working with interviewees who may suffer from memory loss. We’ll also discuss the potential for oral history to repair and transform relationships. Optional evening activities include a mini family-themed movie fest and an evening of embarrassing family stories, of course!

This workshop is a good fit for novices or advanced oral historians embarking on a family history project, broadly defined—or for those exploring the nuances of “insider” interviews. Also welcome: those working on projects about constructed families or constellations of people intimately related.

Maurice Halbwachs Summer Institute 2016: Crime, Dis/Order, Narration 30.08.-03.09.2016 – Lichtenberg-Kolleg

Georg-August-Universität Göttingen           mhsi
Maurice Halbwachs Summer Institute                                                
Crime, Dis/Order, Narration
With Jean and John L. Comaroff and Daniel Stein
30.08.-03.09.2016 – Lichtenberg-Kolleg
Maurice Halbwachs Summer Institute 2016:
Criminality, it seems, has become a global preoccupation in the early twenty-first century, a preoccupation strikingly disproportionate, in most places and for most people, to the threat posed by lawlessness – among other risks – to the conduct of everyday life. Law-making, law-breaking, and law-enforcement are ever more critical registers in which societies construct, contest, and confront truths about themselves. As a result of a tectonic shift in the relations among capital, the state, and governance, the meanings attached to crime, and the nature of policing, have undergone significant change. There has also been a muddying of the lines between legality and illegality, corruption and conventional business, and crime-and-policing, which exist nowadays in ever greater, hyphenated complicity. This is captured in a political economy of representation that focuses increasingly on a new noir in literature and cinema. ‘Crime Dis/order, and Narration,’ in short, will offer a novel excursion into the Contemporary Order of Things.
At this year’s Maurice Halbwachs Summer Institute anthropologists and social theorists, John L. Comaroff and Jean Comaroff (both Harvard University) will draw from their forthcoming study Thinking through Crime, and Policing to analyze the interplay of knowledge, sovereignty and citizenship, of civility, class and race, and of the law and social order in the contemporary world, taking as their primary examples South Africa and the USA. American Studies and media scholar Daniel Stein (University of Siegen) will complement and historically deepen their late modern assessment with his work on 19^th century American crime fiction and its agency in a rapidly modernizing and territorially expanding society.
Applications:
The Maurice Halbwachs Summer Institute is open to doctoral students and postdocs in the Humanities and Social Sciences from Germany as well as abroad. An interest in interdisciplinary work is expected to create an atmosphere of productive intellectual exchange. Applicants with research topics resonating with the theme will profit most from participation.
For applicants from outside Göttingen with well documented need, it may be possible to offer financial support.
English and German are the languages of discussion at this year’s Summer Institute.The main lectures will be given in English; in the working groups with the invited seniors and the four organizers language will be handled as fits the composition of groups.
Tuition:           100 €
The Summer Institute is supported by third-party funding. The program includes a reader, a welcome and a farewell dinner, lunches, as well as a thematically dovetailing excursion in the environs for all participants.
The following application materials are to be submitted electronically:

• Application letter detailing the reasons for desiring to participate
• 1-page exposé of the applicant’s doctoral or postdoctoral project
• Curriculum Vitae

Address: mhsi@gwdg.de
Deadline: April 15, 2016
Decisions will be mailed out in the middle of May.
Inquiries may be directed at Annekathrin Krieger mhsi@gwdg.de or Prof. Dr. Regina Bendix rbendix@gwdg.de or Prof. Dr. Rebekka Habermas rhaberm@gwdg.de.
The Maurice Halbwachs Summer Institute was initiated by Prof. Dr. Regina Bendix, Prof. Dr. Hartmut Bleumer, Prof. Dr. Rebekka Habermas and Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Knöbl.

RAL HISTORY SUMMER SCHOOL WORKSHOP (JUNE 23-28), Oral History and Music: Collecting and Composing (Prison Music, Repatriation, Composition, Collection, Radio Ballads, and More)

O

Oral History Summer School presents:

Collecting and Composing: An Oral History & Music Workshop

June 23 – 28, 2015

Hudson, New York

Instructors: Ben Harbert, Jeffrey Lependorf, Jeremy Thal, Lauren Elizabeth Kelly, LJ Amsterdam, Sheri Bauer-Mayorga, Suzanne Snider

Fee: $650 ($600 for LISTSERV members)

APPLY

This unique six-day hands-on workshop draws connections between song, speech, and memory. Days will be divided between talks, screenings, listening sessions, and field recording. Throughout, guest artists will join us as we pursue the motives and methods of song collectors, past and present-day.

Ben Harbert––musician, musicologist, and filmmaker––will discuss his work at Angola prison and other Louisiana penitentiaries, after screening his feature-length film Follow Me Down (filmed in three Louisiana prisons). LJ Amsterdam will share her experience repatriating Laura Boulton’s 1946 recordings of Iñupiat songs and narratives from Columbia University’s Department of Music to the Native Village of Barrow, Alaska, in 2011 and 2013.

Sheri Bauer-Mayorga and Jeffrey Lependorf will join forces to lead us in an evening sing––chants, echo songs, call & answer, rounds, and a Shaped-Note demonstration and practice––before we start our fieldwork, collecting songs and sounds in the Hudson area. Collection work will be supported by recording tutorials in the classroom and in the field.

Recordings by several artists, including those of Glenn Gould, the Fiery Furnaces, and Alvin Lucier, will serve as inspiration when we shift our focus from collection to composition, considering the possibilities of making music from oral history.

Jeremy Thal, co-founder/co-director of Found Sound Nation, will address FSN’s hybrid work. FSN projects have included documenting youth music movements in Indonesia, remixing a mediation lesson in India, and amplifying the work of youth activists in New Orleans.

This workshop may be of special interest to musicians, folklorists, filmmakers, artists, radio documentarians, youth educators, oral historians of all stripes—novice or experienced––and the generally curious. All are welcome. No experience necessary.

On June 25, Ben Harbert will be present for a screening of his film Follow Me Down, followed by a Q&A with the filmmaker.

Call for applications: Folklore Fellows' Summer School 2015: Doing Folkloristics in the Digital Age

FOLKLORE FELLOWS' SUMMER SCHOOL 2015: DOING FOLKLORISTICS IN THE DIGITAL AGE, UNIVERSITY OF TURKU, FINLAND, 11-18 JUNE, 2015
The call for applications for the next Folklore Fellows' Summer School to be held at Turku University’s research station on the island of Seili, 11–18 June 2015 is now open. The theme of the international summer school, the ninth to be organised in Finland, is investigation of the Internet and digital culture from a folkloristics perspective. The keynote speakers include Anneli Baran, Trevor J. Blank, Lauri Harvilahti, Robert Glenn Howard, Timothy Lloyd, Lynne S. McNeill, and Jaakko Suominen. 
Over the last couple of decades the Internet has become a central part of our everyday activity and social reality. We carry out work, we seek out information and we spend our free time either alone or communally by turning to the Internet. The Internet has powerfully moulded the ways a ! sense of belonging to a community and identity formation take place in modern society. It has given rise to partially or wholly virtual subcultures which have formed around various focuses of interest, whose members may be located absolutely anywhere. Family historians, fans, neo-pagans or health-seekers dwelling in different parts of the world can meet activists campaigning for or against various matters on the net, both social agents and chance participants. The everyday communication of these groups and the folklore they produce are influenced by local cultural traditions and models of communication, but are moulded too by the conditions of the digital contexts and technical approaches. They move naturally between digital and real worlds. Through social media, users of the Internet have changed from information seekers and users to producers of information and participants in it, and the boundary between amateur and professional activity has grown indistinct. The interaction betwe! en production and the public is a central concern of folkloristics, and the Internet has made this more discernible than hitherto. Digital folkloristics makes widespread use of materials gained from the media or otherwise generally known, and also borrows materials from commercially produced culture. Typical too is the characteristic merging of the products of commerce, popular culture and the media with folklore.
What form are the objects of folkloristic research and the questions it poses adopting in a digital age? How have cultural and social changes affected folkloristic methodology, and especially the questions that folklore seeks to pose? What are the objects of folkloristic research like in the context of the Internet, where social and professional boundaries are weak? What identities are built up on the Internet? What facilities does folkloristics have recourse to, when everyday communication has shifted from the oral to the digital? How does folklore arising digi! tally fit in with our earlier conceptions of cultural tradition and its protection? What means are archives and other storage centres for memorabilia to use to carry out their recording and cataloguing work on the Internet?
The programme of the summer school consists of five themes: Online communities and creativity; Authorship and popular culture; New heritage and curation; The Internet as a field for folkloristics; and Digital archives, interoperability and common practices. Each theme will occupy one day, with two plenum lectures and participants’ introductions and discussions.
The summer school is targeted primarily to doctoral students, but postdocs and other researchers are also welcome to attend. The participant quota for the summer school is 20; there will be 10 tutors in all. The language of the summer school is English. The school is open for applications from June 2 to September 30, 2014. All applications are to be sent online using the form publis! hed on the calls' website. Participants will be selected on the basis of their application, and applicants will be informed of their acceptance by 30 November 2014.
The participation fee is 500 euros, which covers tuition, accommodation and full board for the period of the school, as well as journeys between Turku city and the Seili research station. Unfortunately Folklore Fellows cannot subsidize fees, and therefore encourages applicants to seek out other sources of funding and will provide letters of recommendation for those accepted to the summer school.
