Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Contents: Based on Judith Butler's text "What is Critique?" we will ask what critical scientific practice can mean in the context of gender studies today and how current her approach remains.

Methods: (Text) discussions, collective reading, group work.

Goals: from the curriculum
The students have basic knowledge about developments in the history of science, the thematic range and current debates in gender studies. They know central texts and approaches of different currents and positions within women's, feminist and gender studies. They have an interdisciplinary understanding of the classification of "gender" in science and society. Different power relations such as sexism, heteronormativity, racism, rejectionism and colonialism are understood as interacting with each other. Students are able to reflexively implement these approaches using current trans- and interdisciplinary debates and interventions. They have the skills to deal critically with scientific literature and to prepare and write up central questions for their own scientific work. Insights into current debates and interventions as well as the linking of research and practice, activism and artistic approaches are important here.
