Across Global Easts, East Asia & Eastern Europe, victimhood nationalism has been a memory template to amplify nationalist conflicts, creating a vicious cycle of victimhood competition. Deeply thought-provoking, Lim’s book asks what happens when past trauma becomes a political instrument. Victimhood nationalism victimizes innocent victims differently again.This event is hosted by the Weatherhead East Asian Institute and cosponsored by the Center for Korean Research, the Harriman Institute, the Heyman Center, Columbia University Press, and the University Seminar on Cultural Memory. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/new-york/victimhood-nationalism-history-and-memory-in-a-global-age/100001982453964173 - **Event Categories**: Nonprofit, Workshops, Art, Contests, literary-art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: New York - **state**: NY - **country**: United States - **location**: Columbia University - **lat**: 40.807423 - **long**: -73.958946 - **full address**: Columbia University, The Heyman Center, Second Floor Common Room,, New York, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Victimhood Nationalism: History and Memory in a Global Age - **Image URL**: https://dyn-image.allevents.in/generate-image?v=4&title=Victimhood+Nationalism%3A+History+and+Memory+in+a+Global+Age&date=Thu%2C+26+Mar%2C+2026+at+06%3A00+pm&bg=4 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Victimhood Nationalism: History and Memory in a Global Age being held? - **A:** Victimhood Nationalism: History and Memory in a Global Age takes place on Thu, 26 Mar, 2026 at 06:00 pm to Thu, 26 Mar, 2026 at 07:30 pm at Columbia University, The Heyman Center, Second Floor Common Room,, New York, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Victimhood Nationalism: History and Memory in a Global Age? - **A:** Victimhood Nationalism: History and Memory in a Global Age is organized by Weatherhead East Asian Institute. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Victimhood Nationalism: History and Memory in a Global Age", "image": "https://dyn-image.allevents.in/generate-image?v=4&title=Victimhood+Nationalism%3A+History+and+Memory+in+a+Global+Age&date=Thu%2C+26+Mar%2C+2026+at+06%3A00+pm&bg=4", "startDate": "2026-03-26", "endDate": "2026-03-26", "url": "https://allevents.in/new-york/victimhood-nationalism-history-and-memory-in-a-global-age/100001982453964173", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Columbia University", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "The Heyman Center, Second Floor Common Room,", "postalCode": "10027", "addressLocality": "New York", "addressRegion": "NY", "addressCountry": "US" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "40.807423", "longitude": "-73.958946" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Dr. Lim examines how nations turn collective suffering into powerful nationalist narratives that continue to shape the world today.", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-07", "availabilityEnds": "2026-03-26", "validFrom": "2026-04-07", "lowPrice": "0.00", "highPrice": "0.00", "price": "0.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/new-york/victimhood-nationalism-history-and-memory-in-a-global-age/100001982453964173" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-07", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-07", "url": "https://allevents.in/new-york/victimhood-nationalism-history-and-memory-in-a-global-age/100001982453964173", "price": 0, "name": "General Admission" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Weatherhead East Asian Institute", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/weatherhead-east-asian-institute/19170656" } ] } ] ```
