Dutch Ground Zero Mosque
UPDATED: 27-08-2010
This can be a very short entry. There isn’t going to be a Dutch mosque at Ground Zero. Or another mosque for that matter. In fact, it is not even about a mosque. So done, next topic. But there is more to it, of course.

Here’s the overview with the links you need.
Autumn School AISSR – Secular sounds, Islamic sounds: Politics of listening in secular-liberal nation-states
This Amsterdam University Autumn School wants to think through the conundrums posed not only by the visible but also by the sonic presence of Muslims in the West. It aims at understanding the issues at stake of the sensing, and more particular listening body, in connection to secular-liberal governance by post-Christian nation-states. We want to tackle several questions: What does the emerging and quickly evolving Islamic soundscape and their interlinked listening practices in the West tell us about new (ethical) Muslim subjectivities? How does this relate to the ways in which sonic experiences affect the body? What kind of transformation occurs when these new practices leave the protected space of the counter-public sphere? How can these Islamic sound practices be submitted to governmental regimes? To what extent are sound policies implemented in order to securize the Western (European) secular (post-Christian) hegemonic project? The three days summer school, followed by a one-day workshop, will take place from 27-30 October
