Margherita von Brentano Center for Gender Studies, Freie Univ. Berlin and Univ. of Helsinki: Sessions in Feminist Theory, Winter Term 2022/23 (Web)

Time: 06.02.2024, 4-6 pm
Venue: virtual space – via Berlin and Helsinki

The talk gives an account of both a research path and teaching experience at the university. Beginning with the two pivotal concepts of reproduction and care, which mark different spaces and times of feminist elaboration – reproduction as a feminist critique of the Marxist framework of the 1970s; care as an ethical-political proposal of U.S. provenance between the 1980s and 1990s – the general concept of eco-trans-feminism will be articulated and the necessary spillovers on the relationships between disciplines and knowledges will also be examined.

Federica Giardini is Professa at the Dipartimento di Filosofia, Comunicazione e Spettacolo at the Roma Tre Univ. (Web)
