Intersectionality and Area Studies: Interdisciplinary Perspectives

• Vortrag

Jennifer Ramme (Berlin)

Intersectionality and Social Movement Memory: Methodological Approaches and Problems Using the Example of Feminist and LGBTQ Movements in Poland

The mini series invites conversation on the junctures of ‘intersectionality’ and ‘area studies.’ Juxtaposing an interdisciplinary sequence of case studies, the series is interested in investigating which potentially different manifestations and definitions of intersectionality emerge in different spatial and communal contexts. As a whole, the series wishes to prepare the grounds for a discussion, comparison, and transconnection of the past and present development, experience, and negotiation of exclusive, oppressive, or violent structures that target identities based on their gender, sexuality, or ability in Europe and the Americas. Ultimately, it hopes to serve as a starting point for a further and continued engagement with ‘intersectionality and area studies’ which will help deepen our critical understanding of the construction and impact of space on identity, opportunity, and processes of in/equality.

This series is organised by Natali Stegmann, Professor of East and Central European History at UR and Birgit Hebel-Bauridl, Managing Director of the Regensburg European American Forum (REAF) at UR, bothcoordinators of the ScienceCampus Research Module Towards Multi-Polar and Multi-Scalar Area Studies. The series also features a talk organised by Dagmar Schmelzer of the Institute for Romance Studies (UR).
