Seminar: Feminism and Protest Camps: Entanglements, Critiques and Re-Imaginings, Dr. Catherine Eschele (University of Strathclyde, Glasgow)

In this talk, Catherine Eschle will introduce a new edited collection that asks feminist questions of protest camps. An increasingly important social movement tactic, protest camps are set up by activists as temporary homes in spaces that are politically useful or symbolically resonant, in order to facilitate action for specific political ends - and often to prefigure an alternative way of life. Contact Sarah Liu or Annika Bergman Rosamond (co-convenors of the Gender Politics Research Group) for details.
