The course is based on critical readings of theoretical texts from cultural studies and adjacent fields. We will discuss how these approaches may (or may not) help to study “epistemologies” and the especially political or ideological factors they bear. Can they help to describe intrinsic qualities and specific, often hardly questioned demarcations or boundaries of these attempts to explain the world? We will reflect on the genuine heterogeneity of knowledge constellations and their historical indices rather than discredit politics and ideology from the outset as external, after-the-fact elements of knowledge.
