Historical Acknowledgement and Global Democracy: Online Conference

The Center for Research of Conflicts and Their Resolution at the TAU Faculty of Social Sciences is cordially inviting everyone interested in understanding conflict dynamics to their online conference exploring the nexus of democracy and acknowledgment. 

This conference aims to shed light on whether and how historical acknowledgment, perhaps also material remedies, have the potential to change countries' relationships, whether such a turn toward historical conflict resolution is wishful thinking, and what challenges the Liberal International Order will face if the relationship between the “West and the Rest” further deteriorates.

Date: January 16, 2025

Time: 4–7.45 pm IST

• Panel 1: Universal Values or Double Standards? Western Democracy Promotion and Colonial Accountability
  4:15–5:45 pm

• Panel 2: Beyond Reparations: The Impact of Symbolic Remedies on Global Atonement
  6–7:30 pm

• Final Remarks 
  7:30 pm – 7:45 pm

The conference brings together distinguished social sciences, humanities, law, and social psychology scholars and is open to international students.
