ASEEES Online Conference - PANEL VI. The Future of SEEES Expertise: How Can We Anticipate Tomorrow’s Differences?

DECOLONIZATION IN FOCUS

The Russian war in Ukraine has had innumerable impacts, from personal to political, local, national, and global. One of the many sea changes wrought by the war has been the reckoning within East European & Eurasian Studies over the outsized role Russia has played and continues to play in the field and what could and should be done about it. The invited panelists in this series will consider the relationships of power that have long dominated the region, how they have impacted the field of study, and what, if anything, could and should be done about it. The series will have six virtual panels featuring speakers from various disciplines and institutions. Panelists and participants will be encouraged to consider why decolonizing East European & Eurasian studies matters, how to implement concrete change in teaching, and how to conceive of the future of expertise within the field.
