Here we are on the final day of the EASA 2022 Conference in Belfast and online! Some more exciting panels closing up the wonderful set:
P034 Thinking through generations
Convenors: Rozafa Berisha (University of Manchester) and Alexandra Ciocanel (University of York). Discussant: Karen Sykes (University of Manchester)
While some scholars consider ‘generation’ as productive for the study of social organisation and transformation, its critics view it as a homogenising category lacking specificity. Is generation still a fruitful lens to examine social change and reproduction in late capitalism?

P052 Mediating Mourning: grief and justice beyond redemption
Convenors: Timothy Cooper (University of Cambridge) and Vindhya Buthpitiya (University of St Andrews)
If political order is a form of organizing death, what does mourning bring about in the social world? Bringing together the study of mourning with the study of mediation, we explore what role empathy, condolement, and arbitration play in the material, visual, digital, and sonic cultures of loss.

P136 Performative and transgenerational remembrance: Towards transformation and hope?
Convenors: Birgit Bräuchler (University of Copenhagen) and Sina Emde (Leipzig University)
How people remember a violent past determines how they envision the future. Focusing on transgenerational and performative memory work of young people, we investigate the transformative potential of memory and factors facilitating/hindering a creative engagement with the past towards peace
