Stream #3 - Deconstructing Neutrality: Commoning Hope Beyond Necro-Diplomacy

In his keynote lecture, Pascal Gielen seeks to unveil the deep and often painful chasms that culture and art can create, but can also create bridges during times of war and in the sometimes uncomfortable silences of peace when blood is shed elsewhere. He endeavors to grasp how cultural expression and intellectual debate take shape amidst the echoes of war zones and within the quiet, seemingly safe bastions of the former West.
