ISA Panels of Resistance Studies
Stellan Vinthagen February 21st, 2009
The Resistance Studies Network held two panels at the International Studies Association Conference at New York. Panel 1 was on Resistance and Social Movements. Panel 2 was on Every day Resistance. Both led to really productive discussions. The first one had only few attending in the audience since it was already at 8 AM, but the second one filled the (small) room we were assigned. Both panels were recorded and the tapes will appear here later on.
It was an important step in the development of Resistance Studies to have these panels and for some of the network members to meet.
In addition the network made important links with researchers on nonviolent resistance at the International Center on Nonviolent Conflict. They had a panel on nonviolent interventions and nonviolent revolutions.
More on the substance of the panels later.
