Space is limited, so register in advance - https://tinyurl.com/yamb44lo Teaching nationalism to college students has never been more relevant and necessary, yet in a context of emergency remote teaching there has been little time to consider how to approach teaching nationalism in uncertain times. ... This round table discussion contextualizes the role of nationalism in world events and features experienced teachers of nationalism who examine the kinds of issues teachers need to be ready to engage. The panel will highlight strategies to approach sensitive subjects and ways that online and offline assignments can stimulate students’ awareness of nationalism in the world around them. Participants: Peter Rutland, Julie George, Ellie Knott, and David Stroup. Moderator - Paul Goode

02.01.2022 New Article I #UDI recommends the new piece by Agnieszka Pikulicka-Wilczewska on the events in #kyrgyzstan. "It was meant to be a free and fair parliamentary election that could have changed Kyrgyzstan’s political landscape. But the four main parties which made it to parliament represented the old generation of politicians. To many, the result was proved electoral fraud. Protests which began after the Central Election Commission announced the results, however, led to the bigg...est turmoil in 10 years and left the country in chaos." #democracy #protests2020 #kyrgyzstan http://ukrainedemocracy.org/
