What Now? 2016: On Future Identities

The symposium will consider how this contemporary political moment is different from the kinds of activism that arose around identity politics during the 1960s-1990s, and how new thinking might shape ideas around ‘performing citizenship’ or creating a new sense of commons in the future. Reflecting on the Vera List Center for Art and Politics’ focus theme of ‘Post-Democracy’, the final panel will also address what this could mean in relation to the formation of identity in relation to the nation state, multi-faceted citizenship, or conversely, the increasing condition of ‘statelessness’.
