Anotace

‘The word “research” is probably one of the dirtiest words in the indigenous world’s vocabulary’ (Smith 2012). This course examines some of the feminist and decolonial critique of extractivist knowledge practices and possible alternatives.

Introducing key theoretical debate and engaging case studies, including works by M.A. students at the faculty, we are investigating how feminist and decolonial principles can be put into practice. Is knowledge from below better knowledge? How should we speak for or about others? Can feminist research be objective? How do we account for researcher positionality and what do we make of silences, refusal, and betrayals in research?
