Our Political Imagination Laboratories aim to explore and interrogate the shifting political imagination of contemporary social movements. Inspired by both visual and ethnographic fieldwork about activism, each Political Imagination Laboratory brings together anthropologists, filmmakers and activists in a small, collegial gathering to a mix of film screenings, roundtable discussions and work-in-progress expositions. All past Political Imagination Laboratories took place at University of Perugia, Italy, and have been organised by the team of the ‘Peasant Activism Project’, in cooperation with the network ‘Anthropology and Social Movements’ of the European Association of Social Movements (EASA) and ‘Controsguardi – International Festival of Anthropological Cinema’.
