  Conference: Politics of Public Space in Korea


    Friday, November 11, 2011 2:00 PM until Saturday, November 12, 2011
    7:00 PM

>From individuals tagging graffiti to mass candlelight vigils, from 
popular remembrances of the Korean War to ritual observances at 
monuments, the so-called ‘public space’ has been fertile ground for 
Koreans to present their visions of the past, present, and future.

This conference provides an opportunity to reassess and reconfigure 
existing frameworks regarding public action (by individuals and groups) 
by inviting papers that advance our understanding of the role of public 
space in Korean society and culture.

This conference is made possible with funding from the Academy of Korean 
Studies, as well as the generous support of the James Joo-Jin Kim Korean 
Studies Program and the Center for East Asian Studies at U. of 
Pennsylvania.  The organizers are Nicholas Harkness (Harvard U.) and 
Saeyoung Park (U. of Pennsylvania).
