"Global Fractures, Cyber-Sovereignty, and Wild-Card Powers: Windows on the World’s Tomorrows"
Oak Room of the Indiana Memorial Union
5:00 - 6:30 p.m.

Carolyn Nordstrom follows the global connections and the fractures that shape the lives of people and polities in the most direct and profound – but largely invisible – ways. Considering “state” an epistemic habit, she re-defines power, identity, and materiality in the context of various wild cards and the unknown fault lines of tomorrow, such as extra-legality, cyber-sovereignty, hyper-place, and inversions of inequality.
