Description:
Critical, feminist, antiracist, queer, and decolonial approaches to geopolitics have challenged traditional representations of geopolitics focused on the nation-state as the primary actor within a global order. In the context of geopolitics which precipitates economic, political, and climate breakdown, these radical approaches focus on new ways of advancing embodied, emotional, and affective geopolitical structures.
Extending discussions that developed during the 2022 Feminist Geography Conference in Boulder, CO, these sessions aim to bring together emerging work centered on feminist, queer, decolonial, and/or antiracist approaches to geopolitics. We seek to bring together scholars whose work is rooted in these theoretical approaches to continue the decades-long project of challenging the mainstreaming of masculinist, white supremacist, and heteronormative geopolitical discourse to provide new pathways for embodied and global belonging, dignity, and justice.
