Monash scholars visit for 鈥淚slands and Empire鈥 project

On 21-22 July, three scholars from Monash University visited the 神马福利影片 as part of their ongoing interdisciplinary collaboration, 鈥淚slands and Empires: Island Agency in Inter-Imperial Ordering.鈥 The project is supported by the Monash Warwick Alliance.

The project seeks to better understand diverse manifestations of empire and their effects on island populations. Recently, scholars have dedicated attention to the relationship between islands and empire in the Pacific and Indian Oceans, as well as the Caribbean Sea. Islands feature in accounts of strategic competition, and of how international law was hashed out among imperial interests. Several studies have pointed to the agency of island polities in these rivalries.
