Geeta Patel: "A Colonial History of Pensions: The East India Company and One Genesis for the Welfare State"
The colloquium “Reversing the Gaze” is an interdisciplinary forum to reflect on methodological, conceptual and theoretical issues related to knowledge production in Area Studies and comparative social sciences.
In this semester, the colloquium will focus on the ways in which academic and non-academic interpretations of the concept of ‘the state’ vary in different contexts. Drawing from case studies of the research project “Reversing the Gaze” as well as guest talks, the sessions will shed light on research endeavors involving the travel and translation of concepts across different regions, disciplines and research foci.
The colloquium takes place online via Zoom. If you are interested in participating, please register via email to: rtg@clutterunibas.ch.
