Rede IPS Brasil

Temos o prazer de convidá-las/os para mais uma edição dos Diálogos Transversais, que visam criar um espaço para a discussão de artigos e trabalhos de pesquisadores associados à Rede e às instituições parceiras, no âmbito da Sociologia Internacional.

No dia 19/03, às 13h30 (Horário de Brasília, ETC-3), contaremos com a presença de Vinícius Santiago (UEPB), que discutirá seu trabalho, recém-publicado no International Feminist Journal of Politics, intitulado "Enfleshed Sovereignty: the Black woman's womb and the transatlantic politics of the flesh".
Resumo: Beginning with a memory from my childhood spent with my grandma, I reflect on the body and flesh from the perspective of a Black feminist critique on the phenomenology of the body. Following Hortense Spillers, my aim is to unveil what remains as a fundamental issue in the formation of the Atlantic world: the
flesh as a domain of existence from which Black individuals resist and exist. Just as Black women have historically been (un)gendered and racialized, motherhood has been a battlefield on which the (non-)human has been produced. I reflect on how the Black woman’s womb is fundamental for a transatlantic politics of the flesh and is targeted by (un)gendering and racializing technologies of power. The transatlantic politics of the flesh pushes us to rethink the Atlantic world from the standpoint of what I call “enfleshed sovereignty” as a domain out of which a radical and visceral humanity may emerge.
