Prof. Dr. Somdeep Sen (Roskilde University, Denmark):
Race, International Relations and the Politics of Israel-Palestine
There is a growing acknowledgement of the racialised makings and workings of the contemporary global order. But how does this history and legacy shape our conception of the politics of Israel-Palestine? This lecture will navigate questions of race and racism in international relations and manner in which they shape discourse, policy, and practice as it relates to war and peace in the 'Holy Land'

He's also a Research Associate at the Centre for Asian Studies in Africa at the University of Pretoria.
