Where do you belong?
In the media space, that is!
The Ateneo de Manila Communication Department presents:
Boundaries and Belongings
January 17, 2008
10am-3pm
Escaler Hall
This one-day conference aims to bring together scholars and students from anthropology, sociology, and media and cultural studies to explore the centrality of the media in the social, cultural, and ethical aspects of transnational life. Featuring plenary lectures from Dr. Mirca Madianou (Sociology, University of Cambridge) and Prof. Daniel Miller (Anthropology, University College London) and paper presentations from Ateneo Comm scholars, Boundaries & Belongings promises to open up a space to discuss how the increased mobility of peoples in a globalizing world raise significant new questions relating to:
* Identity: Negotiating self and other in spaces of difference
* Citizenship: Political engagement of diasporic communities
* Media and Communications: Centrality of media and communications in processes of social inclusion and exclusion
Admission is FREE!
Cocktails will be served.
Students and scholars from all departments are invited!
