EVENT DETAILS

Nations in the Street: A Pop-Up Panel on the Recent Demonstrations around the World

The Forum for the Academy and the Public Pop-Up events are meant to enable
interdisciplinary conversations among scholars, experts, and the public about urgent
and pressing contemporary issues. After the first Pop-Up of this academic year in
September that focused on the crisis in Hong Kong, this one looks at protests that have
broken out around the world in other seemingly disparate places. What exactly is going
on in Chile, Haiti, Lebanon, and other countries? Are these merely local outbursts or do
they say something more about the state of governance worldwide?
