It would be really great if I could get some input from you about the recent scholarship on subalternity and feminism. Thanks a ton. ~Amrita -----Original Message----- From: owner-postcolonial-AT-lists.village.Virginia.EDU [mailto:owner-postcolonial-AT-lists.village.Virginia.EDU] On Behalf Of radhika gajjala Sent: Friday, October 03, 2003 6:59 PM To: postcolonial-AT-lists.village.Virginia.EDU Subject: reminder - Postcolonial Feminists meet Internet Studies * All who register will get a chance to engage and participate and workshop their ideas and research contexts - discussions are intended to be helpful to participants in clarifying the connection between Postcolonial Theory and Internet Studies. * [What counts and Postcolonial Studies - What counts as Internet Studies? - What counts as doing something at the intersection of both?] * If you have already registered please email me (radhika-AT-cyberdiva.org) asap - so I can include your name, affiliation and topic (or point of interest/engagement in relation to this precon), and if you have one, a 100 word abstract, so we can hand these out to all participants in the handout at the precon and send you an email on the details of the plan for the afternoon. * Postcolonial Feminists Meet Internet Studies (afternoon, Wednesday, October 15) * Organizer: Radhika Gajjala, Associate Professor, Department of Interpersonal Communication Bowling Green State University This preconvention will be a space where we will assert the basic problematics and struggles involved in bringing together the two fields postcolonial feminisms" and "internet studies". This is as much about making postcolonial theory take Internet (and associated "virtuality")studies seriously as it is about voicing postcolonial feminist perspectives on Internet studies. Postcolonial issues - at the intersection of race, gender, class, caste, geography and economics - in relation to Internet studies often tend to get subsumed (or side-tracked) under liberal cyberfeminist discourses while only obliquely addressed in "intercultural/multicultural" approaches . Concepts of collaborative or cross-disciplinary work alone are not sufficient to address the issues of unequal power that arise at the intersection of postcolonial theory and Internet studies. Topics covered include digital diasporas and religion, globalization and third-world contexts, migrant labor and the production of technologies, race, class and gender and so on. Main Speakers/Respondents include: Jillana Enteen, Theresa Senft, Mary Keller, Charles Ess, Michel Menou and Radhika Gajjala for more information on registering for this etc - see http://www.ecommons.net/aoir/conference.phtml#rad http://personal.bgsu.edu/~radhik --- from list postcolonial-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu --- --- from list postcolonial-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu ---
