SoSe 23: Get Thee to a Big City? Queer Mobilities and Theories of Identity and Space
Alexander Niessen
Kommentar
One popularly held belief is that queer people must leave their rural childhood homes in order to emancipate themselves and live free of discrimination. Increasingly, however, social researchers and theorists acknowledge this as a bias and reconceptualize what it means to be queer in all spaces and places. Simulataneously, however, the social organization of spaces can still be viewed as impacting the ways in which constructions of self and identity are formulated. Spaces and places, at the same time, are shaped by those who occupy them. This course aims at entering this debate and address the reciprocal relationship between constructions of self, notions of identities, and the social and material conceptualizations of space and place from a queer, feminist, and intersectional perspective. Moreover, the course will investigate histories of social spaces in the United States. It seeks to address the question what impact physical mobility and relocation has on how individuals and groups formulate definitions of self, and assess existing theories critically. Schließen
