[Reader-list] Sarai - Lives of Information, Feb 21-22 - Invitation

[The Sarai Programme]

Dear all,

Over the past decade, information culture and technologies of
identification have become part of popular discourse, with regimes across
the world rolling out large modernisation projects aimed at populations and
existing structures of governance. A growing body of scholars have turned
their attention to the study of information culture and its history.
Information infrastructure offers a material site to connect different
bodies of scholarship across the disciplines.

The Sarai Programme is organising the *Lives of Information* workshop to
gather an inter­‐disciplinary group of researchers to discuss information
practices, cultures, infrastructures, and histories with a specific focus
on post-colonial contexts.

The workshop will be held at the Centre for the Study of Developing
Societies (#29 Rajpur Road, Civil Lines, Delhi 110054) on February 21-22,
2014.

The workshop programme can be found here: <
