by Don E. Walicek
GRAZ, Austria. More than 125 students, scholars, writers, and others with interests in human rights convened here from 4 to 7 June for “Camps, Belonging, and Abolition Democracy,” the third instalment of a biannual conference series examining the social, legal, and cultural dynamics of detention, displacement, and confinement around the world, as well as the perspectives, critical, humanistic, and hopeful, that emerge both from those spaces and from the creative work and scholarship that focuses on them.
