Dr Roberto Kulpa R.Kulpa@napier.ac.uk
Lecturer
This invited presentation reflected on the contemporary queer studies and the geo-temporal ‘unsettlement’ of Central and Eastern Europe in the occidental (and occidentalist) imaginary.
Dr Kulpa pointed to the uncanny possibilities for queer studies emerging from the Central-Eastern European position of ‘inbetweenness’ the Occident and the Orient. He reflected on the role and place of The Enlightenment and the continuation of ‘coloniality of knowledge’ (Quijano) in LGBTIQ+ activism, pondering structural limitations of this dominant paradigmatic frameworks.
The invitation was part of the international seminar: "Working transnationally beyond comparative hierarchies. Exploring relationalities, solidarities and changing conditions in transnational research and pedagogies", Lund University, Sweden.
