  The People’s Conference: The Transnational Legacies of 1919

  À l’occasion du centenaire de la Conférence de paix de Paris et du Traité de Versailles, le département d’histoire du Collège militaire royal du Canada organise une conférence qui portera sur leur impact sur les mouvements et les institutions internationaux et transnationaux. Jusqu’à présent, les travaux qui ont porté sur la Conférence de paix s’y sont surtout intéressés dans la perspective de la seconde guerre mondiale et de l’incapacité du Traité de Versailles et de la Société des Nations à empêcher un deuxième conflit mondial. Plus récemment, les chercheurs ont tourné leur attention vers l’apparition d’institutions et d’organisations internationales et transnationales créées après 1919.

  Resistance: Indigenous and Postcolonial Perspectives

  In Decolonizing Education (2013), Marie Battiste critiques the valorization of Eurocentric knowledge systems through the minimization of Indigenous knowledge, peoples, and histories, arguing that “part of the ultimate struggle is a regeneration of new relationships among and between knowledge systems”. Achille Mbembe argues in “Decolonizing Knowledge and the Question of the Archive” (2016) that decolonizing knowledge “mostly means developing a perspective which can allow us to see ourselves clearly, but always in relationship to ourselves and to other selves in the universe, non-humans included”. Remaining cognizant of the many competing definitions of the term “postcolonial” and of valid suspicions of institutionalized theory, we envision dialogue between these perspectives as facilitating the exploration of relationships between critical theories, cultural products, pedagogical strategies, social practices, and communities that are motivated by comparable aims of resistance.
