Contested Ethics, Contesting Institutions: Dialogue on Interdisciplinary Research Practice

Time: March 23, 2018, noon - 1:30 p.m.

Location: Peter Graham Scholarly Commons, Room 114 Bird Library

Susan Schweik (University of California, Berkeley)
Zosha Stuckey (Towson University)
Liat Ben Moshe (University of Toledo)
Cynthia Wu (SUNY Buffalo)

Drawing from Schweik’s work with the International Disability Rights Research Network, an international committee tasked to develop a research ethics protocol for scholarship supporting the goals of the UN Convention on the Rights of Disabled Persons, panelists explore how the principles articulated in this protocol might relate (or not) to historical, humanities, and arts-based research. Panelists will also explore the politics of the archive and research ethics in the context of institutions and carceral contexts.

Computer Assisted Real-Time Translation (CART) will be provided at this public lecture.


This event is part of the Jeannette K. Watson Distinguished Visiting Professorship in the Humanities series with its theme for 2018: Bodies of Evidence: Documenting/Representing Injustice, Confinement and Incarceration.
