What is queer dance ? Given the multiple, contested, and historically contingent meanings of the word “queer,” the term seems useful for opening an inquiry about dance, just as dance’s emphasis on embodiment has much to contribute to queer studies.

What can attention to space and geography bring to our understandings of
the political and embodied nexus of race and sexuality ? How can
consideration of racialized sexualities and sexualized racializations
reconfigure the fields of geographies of sexualities and queer geographies ?
This session invites interventions and reflections on the geographies of
race, desire, queer bodies, and politics.

What is so radical about not having sex ? To answer this question, this collection of essays explores the feminist and queer politics of asexuality. Asexuality is predominantly understood as an orientation describing people who do not experience sexual attraction. In this multidisciplinary volume, the authors expand this definition of asexuality to account for the complexities of gender, race, disability, and medical discourse.

This collection will consider how religious identity interplays with other forms and contexts of identity, specifically those related to sexual identity (Stein, 2001 ; Yip, 2005 ; Taylor, 2009). It asks how these intersections are formed, negotiated and resisted across time and places : ‘contradictions’ are both privately and publically inhabited in the context of legislative change and increasing, but often competing, socio-legal recognition.

20 years since the reclamation of the word ?queer ? by the LGBTQ
community this conference would like to take a closer look at broad
themes of queer sexualities through time and space, non-normative
sexual constructions and queer sexual identities from a diverse range
of perspectives by scholars working in various academic disciplines.

The aim of the conference is to create a space for scholarly discussion of studies informed by queer theory, which analyze the normative order of gender and sexuality as well as problematize traditional theories of sexuality. However, we understand queer theory not as LGBT studies, but as critical analysis of the implications of power, knowledge, and politics through which “Others” are constructed and naturalized.
Depuis longtemps, le sexe est perçu comme l’un des grands tabous des pays islamiques. Pourtant, la sexualité est évoquée dans de nombreuses productions culturelles du monde arabe. A partir de l’étude des discours oraux et écrits d’écrivain.e.s, il s’agit ici de rendre compte de la place des sexualités, des genres, des identités trans et queer au sein de la littérature marocaine.
