5th annual CRS symposium: Race and Sovereignty

Event Information

Thursday – Saturday, March 31 – April 2, 2011Time: All day, Law Building, UCLA

The 5th Annual CRS Symposium will explore the relationship between race and sovereignty. Sovereignty, like race, has been invoked, understood, and deployed in contradictory ways. Historically, sovereignty has been an important vehicle through which hegemonic power has been enforced, for example, by articulating citizenship as a racial project rooted in the power to exclude.
