"Saving Africa": a 3-part Reflection. Humanitarianism in Historical Context: from White Man’s Burden to Kony2012.
This discussion will examine Western humanitarian impulses and actions from the 19th century to the present. To what extent, then and now, have they been shaped by economic and security priorities? By religious and ethical movements? How have these forces co-opted one another or clashed, and what have been some of the results? How have African states, community groups and individuals adapted and reacted to Western humanitarian ideologies and programs? How significant a role has globalization – accelerated movements of people, visual and other media – played? What has changed?Discussant: Dr. Nina Berman, Comparative Studies For more information contact cas@osu.edu or (614) 292-8169.
