Working Presentation Title: "On Not Knowing in Advance"

Session #613

Feminism in academia is at risk—as activism, as complicit in hierarchy, as an academic field, as postfeminism. The ostensible failure of feminism in the current political climate, however, is subject to debate. This session explores the “low theory” of resistance and transformation.
