*Relocating Subalternity*

The symposium *Relocating Subalternity* aims to explore both limits and
potentialities of the classical notion of subalternity. How does
subalternity relate to agency and subjectivity? What are the possible
intersections between subalternity and other forms and experiences of
subjectivation? Can the subaltern become an agent of struggles? What are
the political implications of the increasing interest on marginality and
subalternity in academia and art?

The conference will be a space for political and theoretical confrontation
among different conceptual and normative positions that emerged in
feminist, postcolonial and queer theory. Speakers will be Nikita Dhawan
(Goethe-University Frankfurt), Elsa Dorlin (Panthéon-Sorbonne University),
Dhruv Jain (Jan van Eyck Academie), Jasbir Puar (Rutgers University), Srila
Roy (University of Nottingham), Asha Varadharajan (Queen's University),
Jamila Mascat and Sara de Jong (both JvE Academie). The conference is
organised by the Jan van Eyck Academie.

Friday 6 and Saturday 7 April 2012
Jan van Eyck Academie, Maastricht, NL
Participation is free, please register at coordinator.events at janvaneyck.nl.
