摘要

在这篇 "历史地理逍遥游 "的评论中,我讲述了我参加 2023 年 8 月在苏塞克斯大学由艾伦-莱斯特(Alan Lester)教授主持的暑期班的经历,该暑期班的主题是 "如何在文化战争中谈论英国殖民主义"。讲习班鼓励那些希望更多地了解大英帝国及其遗产的非学术界人士参加,以帮助他们就当代有关种族、奴隶制、殖民主义和国家认同的争论进行谈判。我讲述了莱斯特主持的两天讲座和辩论,以及为期一天的伦敦徒步游,在那里我们讨论了有争议的雕像,以及政府英联邦、外交和发展办公室大楼更有争议的内部装饰。这些富有启发性的接触展现了历史地理学的积极性和参与性。

How to talk about British colonialism in the middle of a culture war

In this ‘Historical Geography at Large’ review I recount my participation in an August 2023 summer school led by Professor Alan Lester at the University of Sussex, entitled ‘How to talk about British colonialism in the middle of a culture war’. The workshop encouraged the participation of non-academics who desired greater knowledge of the British empire and its legacies, to help them negotiate contemporary debates over race, slavery, colonialism, and national identity. I recount the two days of lectures and debate led by Lester, as well as a day-long walking tour of London, where we discussed contentious statues and the even more contentious interior of the government's Commonwealth, Foreign and Development Office building. These generative encounters present an activist and participatory form of historical geography at large.
