Museum studies, memory studies, dissensus, political subjectivity, and cultural policy
Eric W. Ross is a PhD candidate in Cultural Studies at George Mason University. He holds a B.A. in English from Carthage College and an M.A. in American Studies from the University of South Florida.
His dissertation, titled "Remembering Democracy", looks at the ways that several newly opened Activist history and culture museums in the United States and Canada navigate the spaces between history/memory and past/present to open up new possibilities for politics.
He is currently a residential fellow with the Center for Humanities Research at George Mason University.
