From the celebrated beautiful image of the traditional representative of classical dance to the extreme exaggeration of femininity, portrayed in the Bollywood item numbers – women in the Indian dance scenario exist together in time and space; however, that is all that they share. The category is not an all-encompassing one, but is instead made up of disparate positions in the public sphere.

Initiative by British Academy in partnership with the universities of Exeter, Oxford, Cardiff, Pune, Strasbourg, Bern, München, Vilnius, Hong Kong, Connecticut, and Harvard.

During this public lecture, Aizada Arystanbek will discuss the Russian Invasion of Ukraine from a Critical Feminist perspective by exploring the issues of Russian imperialism, connecting media bias of the war coverage with Eurocentric notions of modernity and civilization, and situating the conflict within a broader regional perspective that centers experiences of Central Asia.
What can anthropology learn from theatre? How does the process of making performance relate to the experience of conducting ethnography? And what does it mean when one becomes the other?
This is the eleventh event in a series of “Conversations in Anthropology” co-organized by the Institute of Asian and Transcultural Studies at Vilnius University and the Society for Anthropological Sciences-EuroAsia in partnership with the Lithuanian Anthropological Association. In this conversation Douglas Fry, David Henig and Glenn Petersen will discuss how the lessons of historical and ethnographic studies of war can provide insight into how to develop global systems of checks and balances that deter war and promote peace (with an emphasis on the Russian invasion of Ukraine).

First of all, I would like to thank for the opportunity to share the perspective of Ukrainian scholars towards the war against Russia. I have to admit that due to the circumstances, this essay will not be by any means scholarly or academic. It would rather reflect my values as an individual and as a Ukrainian. However, these values hugely overlap with the values of the academic community of Ukraine.
