  Questioning knowledge and practices - Feminist approaches and gender studies

  Dans la lignée des recherches féministes qui questionnent les théories et les pratiques universitaires mais aussi militantes, ce colloque vise à mettre en lumière des travaux récents qui contribuent aux études de genre au Maghreb et en Occident. Ces travaux interrogent les normes universitaires et cherchent à créer d’autres méthodologies et pédagogies et à mobiliser d’autres corpus. Ils réfléchissent à la création de nouveaux outils qui ne soient pas « ceux du maître » (Lorde, 1979) et qui demeurent proches des luttes sociales dont ils sont issus.

  Difference, diversity, diffraction: confronting hegemonies and dispossessions

  10th European Feminist Research Conference

  The overall theme of the conference is “Difference, Diversity, Diffraction: Confronting Hegemonies and Dispossessions”, which refers to a topic central to Gender Studies: the social construction of difference and inequality on the one hand, and the recognition of marginalised experiences and subject positions on the other. In the face of growing right-wing populist movements, anti-feminist and anti-queer backlash, forced migration, austerity and climate change, these concerns take on renewed relevance. The subtitle “Confronting Hegemonies and Dispossessions” is a call to reflect on, challenge and defy the hierarchies, subjugations and deprivations that are linked to structural differentiations and to find affirmative ways of dealing with difference , diversity and diffraction. The conference is committed to promoting a feminist anti-racist accessible space for all genders.
