This conference examines language use in Pakistan. With an eye towards native linguistic diversity that has challenged colonial-nationalist notions of monolingualism, the 13th Annual Conference on Pakistan seeks to disentangle the relationships between national, regional, and local languages. Historically, studies on languages in Pakistan have highlighted the statewide recognition of Urdu, contesting regionalism established by Punjabi, pre-British Raj Persian courtly and literary works, and, recently, the social status of English in the globalized world. Significantly less attention has been drawn to Pakistan's linguistic pluralism. Drawing upon the groundwork initially established by Tariq Rahman, this conference will serve as a gateway to enrich and complicate the relationships between languages and the ligatures of the state, social movements, literature, devotion, and performance. Using multidisciplinary, multitemporal frameworks to elucidate these relationships, we seek to generate a lively discussion unpacking the language hegemonies associated with Pakistan and their current places within the multilingual spaces that its citizens inhabit. While engaging primarily with Pakistan, we aim to open dialogues that celebrate linguistic diversity across South Asia and its diasporas, particularly as the marks of globalization reveal the everlasting relevance of language recognition and support.

*Made possible with the generous support of the Title VI grant from the U.S. Department of Education. Cosponsored by the Department of History of Art, the U-M Residential College, Arab and Muslim American Studies, the Department of History, the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures, the Institute for Research on Women and Gender, and the American Institute of Pakistan Studies.*

Concerned Asian Scholars, 55 Years Later: A Symposium (May 10, 2024 9:00am) https://events.umich.edu/event/120338 120338-21844589@events.umich.edu Event Begins: Friday, May 10, 2024 9:00am
Location: Weiser Hall
Organized By: Center for South Asian Studies

The Committee of Concerned Asian Scholars (CCAS) was founded in 1968 in the wake of the US aggression in Vietnam. Fifty-five years later, what lessons might be drawn from CCAS' efforts to practice anti-imperialist research? Join us for a full day of intergenerational conversations among the founding and early members of CCAS, editors of critical Asian studies journals, and younger scholars working on Asia. We will discuss the place of politically committed scholarship in the academy and the role of the public intellectual in our society, all in order to ask: What does it mean to be a scholar concerned about Asia in the US today?
