Description
The panel aspires to expand the existing debate on the role of arts, theatre and aesthetics in IR. Recognising that ‘art matters, ethnically and politically, affectively and intellectually’ (Danchev 2011:4; Bleiker 2009; 2017; 2019), this panel examines the intimate, ‘messy’, embodied, affective and gendered/racialised/classed politics of arts, theatre and film in war-sense-making.
The panel includes four research papers (see abstract below), a chair (Dr Nilanjana Premaratna/Newcastle University) and a discussant (Dr Emma Dolan/University of Limerick).
