Undisciplining Knowledge: Theories, Practices and Imaginaries
seminar series :: august - november 2011
The University of Cape Town's (UCT) Centre for African Studies (CAS)
welcomes you to a seminar series in honour of South African scholar and theorist Archie Mafeje.
We pay tribute to Professor Mafeje's work by examining how Africa has been produced through different disciplinary knowledge projects, institutional sites, visual regimes and contemporary discourses. Intended as a set of discussions and provocations, the seminars point to an overdue debate or critical inquiry on knowledge, the disciplines and the university as an institution, in the context of colonialism, apartheid and their aftermaths. We look at theory, practice and imaginaries as sites of production and reification as well as re-imagining and productive unmaking, or undisciplining of knowledge regimes.
