Description:
The conference explores how the "politics of landscape" have changed. It asks how events like war, emerging nation-states, globalization, digitization, and climate changes have altered "landscape" as an object of inquiry and considers whether a political apprehension of the aestheticization of land encourages us to think differently about the histories that landscape congeals, conceals, or reveals.
Persons with disabilities who need an accommodation in order to participate in this event should contact the event sponsor for assistance. For student events, please contact ORCSA at (773) 702-8787.
