OPEN SEMINAR

The seminar is reserved for students of the prof. Jordan

WORKSHOP AND FINAL TEST

The seminar, which falls within the scope of the teaching activities of the Jean Monnet Chair “CIAK-EU!”, explores post-colonial relations between Europe and Africa. The intent is to invite us to look at European history from the perspective of the histoires croisées that the various European countries and their overseas dominions have woven starting from the highly unequal intercultural relations of the colonial situation. In this sense, we will analyze the ways in which a reading of the long-term consequences of colonial history and decolonization emerges in television series.

The case study analyzed will be that of the questions opened by the Rwandan genocide: the historical responsibilities of the colonial experience and post-colonial ties of dependence, the transnational construction of competing narratives and memories on the genocide, acts of symbolic reparation towards the victims, the theme of justice and reconciliation.
