National University in Canberra, Australia from 7-9 December 2011.

Honour Killing Across Culture and Time – Conference Registration Open

Australian National University

Canberra, Australia

7-9 December 2011

Honour-motivated violence is a trans-historical and cross-cultural 
phenomenon, yet it has recently become a metonym for Islamic and 
anti-modern cultures.

How can inter-disciplinary conversations unpack this association to 
produce innovative ways of thinking about and acting against violence 
justified through claims of honour?

This conference will explore honour killing across periods, places, 
political contexts, legal regimes and religions.It will bring together 
scholars, artists and activists. This event will be the ANU Gender 
Institute's Signature Event for 2011.
