Anotace

Poslední úprava: Dagmar Lorenz - Meyer, M.A., Ph.D. (15.01.2022)

This graduate course introduces students to feminist theories of knowledge and the ways in which they propose that researchers situate and account for their research apparatuses, including relations of power and the role of the body and emotions. How does our positionality and research subjects take shape within the processes of research, and how to account for this? What might it mean to decolonize research methodologies and theories of knowledge? How can methods be inventive, artful, and sensitive to the subjugated, inaccessible, and withdrawn? The course discusses established and contemporary feminist texts and case studies that address these enduring questions of power, reflexivity and responsible knowing in practice. Students are encouraged to examine their own research encounters in this light.
