How do ideas about ’the nation’ take place locally? How are imaginaries of ’a people’ represented and challenged in urban memory and forgetting? With what effects on community formation, polarisation, and everyday urban life?
Concluding the three-year CMES project Beyond Sacred/Secular Cities: Exploring the Politics of Memory, Space, and Religion, this symposium assembles scholars of multiple disciplines to critically explore how notions of ‘the city’ configure and construct nationalist imaginaries when orchestrated in urban space.
The symposium will be held 12 June in Lund, Sweden.
