This workshop’s main goal is to consider how we can write histories of internationalism that acknowledge the instrumental roles played by postcolonial, grassroots, marginalised, or simply unconventional actors, organisations and places. Does the meaning of internationalism itself change depending on where, when and how we look for it and which voices in the archives we listen to?
The workshop is part of the AHRC-funded project ‘Rethinking Internationalism: Histories and Pluralities’, which is jointly led by Jessica Reinisch (Birkbeck), Ria Kapoor (QMUL), Daniel Laqua (Northumbria) and Margot Tudor (City St George’s). ‘Rethinking Internationalism’ seeks to build a community of scholars beyond (sub-)disciplinary silos and across different career stages who can collectively decentre histories of internationalism dominated by Anglo-American liberal internationalism.
