Get PDFQueere Intersektionalität: Begegnungen mit
Transnationalität
Der Beitrag nimmt eine konzeptionelle Erkundung
des queeren Potenzials vor, das aus einem
Dialog zwischen Intersektionalitätsansätzen
in der Geschlechterforschung, der Queer
Theory mit ihrem Konzept des Queerings und
der transnationalen Migrationsforschung hervorgeht.
So bietet eine queere Intersektionalitätsperspektive
Raum für Denkansätze, die
sich über Normativitäten in intersektionalen
wie auch transnationalen Forschungsagenden
hinwegsetzen. Das Queering richtet sich
dabei nicht ausschließlich auf Intersektionalitätstheorien
und deren Forschungsgegenstand,
sondern ebenso auf deren Status als
Forschungsparadigma, das seine eigenen normativen
Modi der Wissensproduktion hervorgebracht
hat. Verschiedene kritische Interventionen
werden hier auf eine Weise
mit(durch)einander gelesen, dass sie in einer
queer-intersektionalen Lesart dazu beitragen
können, heteronormative Annahmen in der
Migrationsforschung zu hinterfragen und die
Verknüpfung von Intersektionalität mit als
„anders” markierten Körpern aufzulösen.This article is a conceptual exploration of the queering potential that emerges from a productive dialogue between the litera tures on intersectionality in gender theory, on the notion of queering in queer theory, and on transnationalism in migration studies. It argues that the queering of intersectionali ty provides ways of thinking beyond the nor mativities residing in both intersectional and transnational research agendas. Queering thus not only engages intersectional theory and its subject matter, but equally its status as a research paradigm that has given rise to its own normative modes of knowledge pro duction. Taking its cue from a range of relat ed critical interventions, this article proposes that, read through one another as a queer in tersectional lens, they have the potential to mitigate against heteronormative assump tions underlying transnational research as well as the tethering of intersectionality to particularly marked bodies

No full textDisentangling Participation in ‘Local Organic‘ Food Activism in London. On the Intersecting Dynamics of Whiteness, Coloniality and Methodologies that Constitute Ecological Identities
No full textThe way we grow and consume food has become a key arena where concepts of nature, sustainability and identity are being negotiated. But who is the “we” in this discourse? The London-based local organic food network Organiclea that seeks to facilitate a reconnection with nature through food growing provides the empirical platform for exploring this question and its related territories of participation in such food spaces and understandings of race, nature and culture. Building on the work of US food justice theorists who have introduced framings of whiteness and coloniality in relation to the exclusiveness of local organic food practice, this paper asks what it means to engage in such food activism in light of intersectionality that informs any identity and therefore stance towards food and nature. By reviewing and embedding these conceptualisations within a UK context with the help of inductive interviews and intersectionality as an empirical paradigm, a deeper understanding of racialised (ecological) identity formation behind ecological identities and the role of scientific methodologies in upholding subordinated diaspora subjectivities can be brought forth. This study therefore provides important subtle layers to gender studies’ signature framework of intersectionality and the disproportionate participation on the part of diaspora subjects in the design and operation of local organic food practice
