Conference on Judith Butler and Political Theory

Filed under: Uncategorized

I received the following announcement today from Samuel Chambers via the Post-Structuralism and Radical Politics Group of the PSA:

A Politics of Contingency: Critical Assessments of the Political Theory of Judith Butler

The Department of Politics and International Relations at Swansea University is pleased to announce a one day international conference on the political theory of Judith Butler. The conference will be held at Swansea University on 12 May. The conference will bring together political theorists in a forum designed to engage with the political thought of Butler, a thinker famous for her contributions to feminism and queer theory but whose contributions to thinking the political have been less well-explored. Speakers will include Dr. Moya Lloyd, Professor Diana Coole, Professor Terrell Carver, Dr. Lisa Disch, and Dr. Samuel A. Chambers.

You can access and/or download the flyer for the conference through this link.

The conference is free and all are welcome.
