Overview of the lectures at the School of Feminism: 14 May 2016

On Saturday, 14 May the lectures of the Module 1 (Introduction to feminisms: history, terms, theory) at this year’s Žarana Papić School of Feminism took place. Selma Kešetović, MA in gender studies and a writer, talked about the diversity and disputes within the feminist theory and practice.

Selma dedicated the lecture to understanding and critical review of the key dissent points of the various waves of feminism, on different social phenomena, respectively on the key subject matters of the feminist thought and action, like sexuality/body (pornography, prostitution, violence, child birth, abortion), power, equality/diversity, oppression/patriarchy, care, femininity/masculinity, reproduction etc.

On Tuesday, 17 May the lectures start at 5:30 P.M. In the scope of the Module 1 Sandra Zlotrg will talk about the feminist linguistics, and in the scope of the Module 2 Adnan Kadribašić will talk about the institutionalization of gender equality: gender mainstreaming, gender-responsive budgets, as well as about the, so called, positive measures and quotas.

The realisation of the Žarana Papić School of Feminism is being financially supported by the Swedish Government via the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida).
