Afterlives of Revolution: Everyday Counterhistories in Southern Oman

Join us for an engaging book talk with Dr. Alice Wilson, Associate Professor of Anthropology at the University of Sussex, as she discusses her latest work, Afterlives of Revolution: Everyday Counterhistories in Southern Oman. In this groundbreaking study, Dr. Wilson explores how revolutionary values and networks persist even after official suppression, focusing on the Dhufar Revolution in Oman. She delves into the “social afterlives” of these movements, examining how former militants utilize kinship and daily interactions to maintain egalitarian ideals and commemorate their revolutionary pasts in unofficial ways. This event offers a unique opportunity to gain insights into the enduring impact of revolutionary movements and the ways in which their legacies continue to shape societies. Dr. Alice Wilson is Associate Professor in Anthropology at the University of Sussex.
