RE: Conference on Occupation and Planning

Although this call for papers is broad in scope, there is an obvious and
important place for Haiti on two counts --first the French colonial
occupation which laid out important, enduring city plans in every port
city. Those endure and shape life to this day. The second is the effects of
the US Occupation 1915-1934, the 100th anniversary of which is relevant to
the conference and which even more deeply than the French layouts affected
all aspects of life in Haiti and continues to do so to this hour.  I
strongly urge scholars on this list to propose presentations.    LeGrace

Two announcements recently posted on H-Environment may be of interest to
readers:

From the call for the 3rd Summer Institute at Cornell University (May
11-15, 2015), on the topic, Occupation: Violence and the Long-term Control
of Land and People
<https://networks.h-net.org/node/19397/discussions/55700/cfp-third-annual-summer-institute-cornell-university>
:

The theme of the Third Annual Summer Institute at Cornell University is
military occupation and its civilian society relatives.

*****

The goal of the Institute is to understand emergent meanings of occupation
and recognize its paradigmatic potential for land and resource
commandeering in episodes of war and peace. Participants will ponder these
questions: How does military occupation insinuate itself into civilian
governance after war episodes pass? How do models of military occupation
inform (or not) non-military efforts to assert control over people and
landscapes? How are subaltern occupations by the occupied similar to or
divergent from military occupation? Other likely questions: How is military
occupation changing in light of the changing nature of war? Does occupation
ever improve conditions in subjugated zones (transformative occupation),
an assumption informing todays U.N. Peacekeepers and other humanitarian
interveners? How do corporations occupy landscapes (patents, debt
obligations, take-overs, accumulation by dispossession, land/sea grabs)?
How is occupation different from enclosure, annexation, and colonial
dominion?

The application deadline is January 15. More at H-Environment
