OIS 2 (2013) – Inverted Worlds: Cultural Motion in the Arab Region

OIS 2

OIS 2 (2013) – Inverted Worlds: Cultural Motion in the Arab Region

The revolutionary momentum in the region has invigorated various forms of expressing protest, be it through songs, hip hop, graffiti and street murals, and new media, or by using humour and non-linearity in visual and narrative forms. Inverted Worlds: Cultural Motion in the Arab Region considers both regional and cross-cultural aspects of recent events, and relates back to dynamics at hand prior to the uprisings. The contributions in this volume are the results of a congress the Orient-Institut Beirut (OIB) organised in light of the above in Beirut in October 2012.
