Sednaya Prison: Possible Fieldwork

Veranstaltungsdaten

Diese Veranstaltung ist Teil der internationalen Vortragsreihe "Syrien am Scheideweg", eine Kooperation zwischen den Fachgebieten Arabistik und Politik des CNMS der Philipps-Universität Marburg, dem Forschungsprogramm Europa im Nahen Osten -Der Nahe Osten in Europa (EUME) am Forum Transregionale Studien/Berlin und dem Merian Institute for Advanced Studies in the Maghreb (MECAM) in Tunis, Tunisia.

The fall of the Assad regime might not only mark a political collapse for Assad and Assadism in Syria, but would also unravel long-standing barriers that have shaped how researchers engage with the country's complex legacy. This legacy includes research sites that were once inaccessible, often built on deeply intertwined theoretical and methodological foundations. One such site is the Syrian political prison system. In this talk, I reflect on how visiting Sednaya prison can reshape our epistemological approaches to fieldwork and perception of researched fields, drawing on research I conducted on Sijniyya—prison songs secretly performed in Sednaya between 1987 and 1996.
