Symposium: Feminism, Queer and Neoliberalism - Critique, Complicity and Complexity

June 14th, 2018, 10.00 - 18.00, Oculus Building - room OC0.04

This symposium brought together academics, activists and artists from a range of disciplines to discuss the relationship between feminism, queer and neoliberalism. We considered how feminism and queer have resisted neoliberalism, and how feminism and queer have been complicit with it, but we also wanted to go beyond that conventional binary framing and engage with the many complexities of that dynamic relationship.

Audio recordings and slides for some of the papers presented in the symposium are available below.

 

PANEL 1: Feminism in and against Neoliberalism in International Development and Social Movements

 

PANEL 2: On Sale Now! Neoliberalism and the Commodification of Feminism

 

PANEL 3: Resisting the Neoliberal Present, Imagining Different (Feminist and Queer) Futures: Academia, Art and Activism
