  • 2017 Preliminary Program
    Preliminary Program 60th Annual Meeting Institutions: Creativity and Resilience in Africa November 16 – 18, 2017 Chicago, IL Program Committee Chairs: Marissa Moorman, Indiana University Bloomington Susanna Wing, Haverford College Local Arrangements Committee Chairs: Mark DeLancey, DePaul University Amy Settergren, Northwestern University 1 Program Theme The theme of this year’s Annual Meeting is “Institutions: Creativity and Resilience in Africa.” The theme statement reads as follows: Institutions are sites of dynamism, contestation, and continuity. They structure daily life. As the organizations or associations that foster or constrain society, economy, culture, and politics - or as the practices and customs that contour them - institutions bind and render, build and destroy. The 2017 annual meeting of the African Studies Association marks the 60th anniversary of the ASA. The association is responsible, in part, for institutionalizing the study of Africa in the United States, advocating for informed policy, and building dialogue and exchange with Africa- based scholars and institutions. The 60th anniversary offers a moment for critical reflection on what and who we are as an institution. From its founding, the ASA has sought to promote understanding of Africa through social scientific and humanistic inquiry on the continent and in the United States. The theme “Institutions: Creativity and Resilience in Africa” invites participants in the 2017 annual meeting to consider how various institutions have been constructed, how they function, and how they relate to Africa and African Studies. The concept of institutions is far-reaching and comprises the patterns and organizations that have become embedded within societies. Institutions are universities, donors, non-profit organizations, state and legal structures, as well as cultural norms, music and book festivals, religious associations, languages, rituals, interactions and exchange.
