Africa and the World

africaworld@georgetown.edu

Africa’s place in global society is conceptualized in distinctive and equally valuable ways across disciplines. Yet these perspectives are so rarely placed into conversation with one another with the goal of enriching scholars and policymakers understanding of the continent’s history, society, and pressing challenges. The Africa and the World Seminar Group at Georgetown University aims to bridge this gap by fostering a sense of community amongst young scholars who share an interest in exploring Africa’s historical and contemporary scholarship on local, regional, and global scales. We aim to attract specialists from an array of disciplines including, but not limited to, history, economics, business, linguistics, political science, anthropology, religion/theology, and area studies in order to share different perspectives and ongoing research in a collegial and constructive environment on campus. We are particularly interested in work that explores interconnectedness of Africans on the continent and beyond, investigates the history of its peoples and societies from innovative perspectives, or that analyzes how Africa has been both influenced and helped shape regional and global economic, political, and social processes. We also welcome members with specialized, or broader, interests in questions relating to African economic development, people and culture, politics and government, environment and society, and conflict and peacebuilding.

The workshop will convene regularly throughout the academic year and take a variety of forms. Members will be encouraged to submit papers for discussion and to present on topics of their choosing. In other sessions, a distinguished speaker will be invited to address the group. As a part of the effort to build a sense of community amongst Africanist scholars at Georgetown, the seminar conveners will encourage participants to recount recent fieldwork experience, share best practices for conducting various types of quantitative and qualitative research, and ask students to submit grant proposals for comment and feedback. Although participants will largely determine the direction and content of each individual seminar, a central graduate student committee does take charge of all administrative and planning duties. This is not intended so as to privilege certain perspectives, but to ensure that the workshop continues to provide a diverse and inclusive platform of a variety of views and ideas across disciplines. Please contact either Dylan Proctor (dap129@georgetown.edu) or Matthew La Lime (mcl236@georgetown.edu) for information regarding future meeting times, membership, or if you wish to present/participate. We look forward to working with all members of the Georgetown African studies community to create an intellectual space that allows for the free exchange of Africanist research and ideas across fields of study.

The Graduate Spanish and Portuguese Student Organization (GSPSO) is an organization open to all graduate students in the Department of Spanish and Portuguese, Georgetown University. It was founded in 2000 with the aim of creating a forum for discussion of issues of common interest among graduate students.

The GSPSO holds periodic meetings in which important matters are undertaken concerning students’ funding and responsibilities as well as changes to the graduate guidelines and academic progress requirements. Both the Department’s Chair and the Directors of Graduate Studies have expressed their desire to give graduate students an active role in the Department and to improve communication with them. In order to facilitate this interaction, periodic meetings with the students’ representatives have been established as well as informational meetings for all graduate students. Members of the executive board are responsible for such tasks as communicating with the department and university administrations, as necessary, for representing the department at Graduate School Government assemblies, for facilitating the adjustment period of first-year students, organizing social and academic tasks that engage students from both concentration programs, and for regular communication with the student-members. Student-members are given the right and privilege to vote in group elections, to bring concerns to their executive board members, and to participate in planning academic events and workshops.

Our intention is to make the graduate students’ experience (both academic and social) in this department as fruitful as possible, while allowing students to bring their own energies and ideas to bear in the GSPSO.
