To celebrate this year’s STAIR awards around the International Studies Association annual conference in Nashville in March 2022, we are inviting our awardees to speak on our podcast.
Asees Puri and Pedro Dos Santos Maia (Graduate Institute, Geneva) have received our very first Best Graduate Paper award for their co-authored paper "Diagrams of Ruination: Beheadings, Prisons, and the Un/Making of Violent Remains", presented at the ISA conference in 2021. They talk about their moves from Deleuze through actor-network theory and to Ann Laura Stoler's postcolonial concept of "duress"; the challenges of engaging with violent visual material; and the joyful mess of co-authoring papers as PhD students.
Pedro Maia can be emailed at pedro.dos@graduateinstitute.ch and be joined on Twitter at @pdsmaia. Asees Puri's email address is asees.puri@graduateinstitute.ch and her Twitter handle is @AseesPuri.
Host: Vic Castro (University of Copenhagen)
Music: Keertana Ramachandran, veena version of "Māmavatu shrī Sarasvatī" composed by Mysore Vāsudēvācārya (1865-1961).
