One of the standard maxims of counter-terrorism is that the terrorist's greatest fear is not to be defeated but rather to be ignored. Indeed, terror has always been a communicative tool, and modern terrorism has developed in relation to dual advances in technologies of violence and communication. Nevertheless, the terrorist's quest for attention and visibility is always balanced with a necessary operational concern for invisibility. Clandestine planning activities are interspersed with dramatic and conspicuous outbursts of violence before the terrorist disappears once again into shadows of the underworld.

From the Frankfurt School to contemporary cultural studies, the social ramifications of Disney movies and theme parks, and their cultural penumbra, have long provided rich terrain for critical scholarly analysis. This panel explores the discursive, literary, filmic, and historical dimensions of the Disney phenomenon in both the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Papers that draw upon the rich canon of scholarship on Disney and engage with its cultural effects through critical theory, spatial or historical analysis, feminist methodologies, or close reading strategies are particularly encouraged. This session is also interested in papers that specifically focus on this year's theme of sight, visuality, and ways of seeing.
