Anotace

This course introduces students to critical studies of race and racism, including white innocence and bio- and necropolitics and their significance also in Central Europe. How are racialised distinctions being made, and wilfully ignored? Is race socially constructed and how? What innovative methods to study race and racism have been proposed, in particular in the absence of archives that include testimonies of marginalised people? How can racialised legacies become the ground for racial utopias and future imaginings?
