2012: Feminisms in Transnational Perspective

Pri Interuniverzitetskom centru u Dubrovniku 21.-25. svibnja 2012. Centar je u suradnji s Institutom za etnologiju i folklor iz Zagreba, po šesti puta uspješno organizirao poslijediplomski seminar ‘Feminisms in Transnational Perspective’.Ovogodišnji seminar je održan pod naslovom: Womens’ heritage: Untitled. Cilj nam je bio iz feminističkog kritičkog ugla istražiti dokumentiranje, promišljanje i utjecaj ženskih života, povijesti i izričaja. Potaknute smo ženskim nasljeđem koje se suprotstavlja patrijarhatu, diskriminaciji, deprivaciji i historizaciji. Žensko se nasljeđe patronizira, ne istražuje, ne autorizira i ne pohranjuje unutar muzeja ili akademskih institucija. Želja nam je bila potaknuti diskusiju o zamkama transnacionalnih institucija za zaštitu nematerijalne baštine, a koje se često kreću unutar okvira patrijarhalne opresije i stereotipiziranih rodnih uloga, ali i rekonceptualizirati načine očuvanja emancipatorskih praksi.

Sudionice seminara, njih 28, iz različitih zemalja, propitivale su pristupe arhiviranju, pokazale su kako feministička politika pamćenja i arhiviranja objedinjuje istraživački rad i zagovaranje te omogućuje stvaranje novog simboličkog kapitala za žene. Na seminaru je bilo govora o teorijskim i metodološkim nedoumicama koje se javljaju iz koncepata kao što su: žensko/lejzbijsko/queer nematerijalno nasljeđe, migracijsko nasljeđe ili nedoumice vezane uz digitalni arhiv.

Programom su tematski paneli bili raspoređeni na:

a) istraživanje novih oblika feminističke politike pamćenja i arhivskih uvida

b) prevođenje ženskog/lejzbijskog/queer pamćenja u narative, kulturne ekspresije i vizualno pismo

c) povratak feminističkog intelektualnog nasljeđa: arheologija dubrovačkih feminističkih kongresa iz 1980-tih

d) feministička kritika koncepta nematerijalnog nasljeđa

e) feminističko/žensko nasljeđe i digitalna tehnologija.

Teško je izdvojiti imena sudionica koje su prezentirale zanimljive i kritičke uvide u temu, no ističemo ipak neke: Sabine Grenz (Njemačka), Nadia Setti (francuska), Jasna Koteska (Makedonija), Natka Badurina (Italija), Svetlana Slapšak (Slovenija), Biljana Kašić i Sandra Prlenda (Hrvatska), Els Flour (Belgija), Tuula Juvonen (Finska), Renata Jambrešić Kirin (Hrvatska), Marina Blagaić (Hrvatska), Naila Ceribašić (Hrvatska), Sergia Adamo (Italija), Pavla Frydlova (Češka), itd.

I u 2012. godini Centar za ženske studije seminar je organizirao s partnerskim institucijama iz nekoliko zemalja, a ko-direktorice su ove godine bile: Rada Borić, izvršna direktorica Centra za ženske studije Zagreb, Renata Jambrešić Kirin, Institut za etnologiju i folkloristiku, Zagreb, Natka Badurina, Faculty of Modern Langugaes, University of Udine, Italy, Jaana Vuori, School of Social Sciences and Humanities, Gender Studies, University of Tampere, Finland Jasmina Lukić, Department of Gender Studies, CEU Budapest, Hungary, , Durre S. Ahmed, Center for the Study of Gender and Culture, Lahore, Pakistan.

Najavljujemo da će se slijedeće godine seminar baviti temom kritike proizvodnje znanja.

(Course description)

Feminist and women’s studies collectives are generally the only ones who systematically care about women’s historical, cultural and artistic achievements; they are thoughtful carriers of the ‘treasure’ of women’s social and political activities. Processes of globalization and geopolitical transformation that have intensified urban change, migrations, and inequality but also provoked digital revolutions and new global networks, movements and collaborations, have shed a new light on women’s legacy of emancipatory struggles and on compliancy with dominant patriarchy. The idea of this course is to use a feminist angle and manifold critical ‘eye’ in order to explore ways of documenting, reflecting and (re)visioning women’s lives, histories and modes of self-expression inspired by the “untitled” women’s heritage that opposes patriarchy, discrimination, deprivation and historicisation. Such coordinated activities will contribute to the social capital and wealth of women that positively impact on their lives.

Feminist scholars and activists are in many ways accountable to their foremothers and contemporaries when engaging in theoretical re-conceptualization or archivist re-construction of women’s history and memory. On one level, they have to discuss the traps of UNESCO (and some other transnational institutional) measures for protecting intangible heritage along the lines of patriarchal oppression and conservation of stereotyped gender roles. On another level, we are looking for local possibilities for safeguarding, reassessing and nurturing feminine spiritual practices, gestures and agencies that support women’s empowerment and emancipatory remembrance. We are also searching for women’s experiences of being in-between historical time/space in order to decode the meanings of both historical ruptures and silenced limbo where women walk through and across matter.

In transitional societies it is particularly the artefacts and values ofwomen’s (pre)socialist heritage that remain scattered, mostly patronized or censored, undated and unauthorized, on the margins and out of sight of national research projects, museums and academic institution. Looking from this corner of the world, we believe that the feminist politics of memory and archiving lies in combining research and advocacy, in finding a new way of imagining women’s villages and cities full of creative, proud, disobedient and rebellious women. The aim of this course is to deal with some theoretical approaches and methodological dilemmas arising from the concepts such as women’s/lesbian/queer intangible heritage, travelling heritage, digital archive, and counter-archive. The main points of discussion will be as follows:

a) claiming feminist intellectual heritage: archaeology of Dubrovnik feminist congresses in the 1980s

b) exploring new forms of feminist politics of memory and archival inquiry

c) translating women’s/lesbian/queer memory into narratives, cultural expressions, visual literacy

c) mapping women’s/lesbian/queer circles, itineraries and desires

d) creating a feminist critique of the concept of intangible heritage

f) feminist/women’s heritage and digital technology

e) claiming the future in response to feminist heritage

The Brazilian philosopher calls for “the end to the world – as we know it” through the operations of “fractal thinking”, which is “immanent, scalar, plenteous, and undetermined” in revendicating material, cosmic, elemental ‘ancestral claims’. The seminar of “Feminisms in a Transnational Perspective” finds inspiration in da Silva’s experiments with imagining otherwise, focusing on the question of new experiences of thinking and praxis ‘at the root’; ‘radicality’ is the chosen term to mean the inventive investigation attending to the complex constellations of feminist existence, decolonizing its own origins and processes of development in order to move toward necessary instances of female social and global justice. The theme calls for a radical theoretical and practical reorientation that aims at undoing and dissolving the notions of ‘separability’, ‘determinacy’ and ‘sequentiality’ that have been and are still active and operative in the colonial and racist constitution of the modern and contemporary world, to favour the ethical force of ‘deep implicancy’ among human and non-human living creatures. It is an attempt at re/de/composing the roots of our common and collective life, to be able “to express, enact, and embody the plurality of otherwise possibilities that are both radically ‘out’ of this world and radically immanent and ‘here’”, while providing momentary resolutions at each instance according to an intention mediated by the given context. The radicalities of which we would like to discuss, elaborate and experience in our togetherness, might imply: the origin of transnational feminisms; the tracing of feminist genealogies different from the modernist enlightenment ones; the critique of universalism; the critical engagement in postcolonial and decolonial theories and praxes; the intergenerational dialogue; the reconfiguration of power in social struggle; the investigation of the techne of writing, literature and art; the radicalization of aesthetics; the repositioning of language otherwise; the discussion of what might open instance of justice for indigenous, migrant, LGBT, non-white populations; the emergence of praxis of survival, resistance, and invention; the experimentation with translation, transposition and transformation of entangled forces; the feminist ongoing practices of care. Eligibility: IUC courses are conducted at the postgraduate level. All interested postgraduate students (in MA or PhD programs) may apply to participate, although the course targets young scholars and postgraduate students with a defined interest in women’s/gender studies, transnational studies, philosophy, sociology, literary and cultural studies, postcolonialism, anthropology, or related discipline. The course will be limited to 15 students (25 participants in total) in order to provide sufficient space for discussion, seminar work and student presentations. The course directors will keep open the possibility of online participation in case the epidemiological situation does not allow travel and gatherings in person. However, the organizers do hope that all participants will be able to gather in person in Dubrovnik. Participants must seek funding from their own institutions for the costs of travel, lodging and meals. Limited financial support is available for participants from parts of Eastern Europe and some non-European countries (please see http://www.iuc.hr/iuc-support.php).
