Lecture ‘Intersectionality’ – 27th February, 2014
Lecture 'Intersectionality' – 27th February, 2014
a cross-disciplinary exchange
-
LECTURE - Brussels - Thursday February 27th, 2014
Professor Mieke Verloo and Professor Helma Lutz will discuss the implications of intersectionality to their respective academic disciplines and policy fields.
Professor Mieke Verloo reflects on the contribution that intersectionality theory can make in understanding gender and equality changes in Europe. In her lecture, professor Verloo builds and expands on the concept of political intersectionality as coined by Kimberlé Crenshaw to understand the potentials, pitfalls and shortcomings of current gender equality strategies, such as legal equality, positive action and gender mainstreaming.
Professor Helma Lutz takes issue with proponents of intersectionality that believe that a theoretical concept cannot or should not be detached from its original context of inception. Instead, she argues that theory's travels into other contexts automatically involve appropriations, amendments, and changes in response to the concept's original meanings. In her lecture, professor Lutz elaborates on how intersectionality may be used as a methodological tool.

Lunchseminarie "Rhizomatische benadering" dr. Jasmina Sermijn
De rhizomatische benadering heeft zowel binnen als buiten de psychologie een noemenswaardig potentieel om nieuwe onderzoeksinzichten in bestaande problematieken te verkrijgen. Op vrijdag 14 februari 2014 geeft dr. Jasmina Sermijn (Vrije Universiteit Brussel, Centre for Interpersonal, Discursive and Narrative Studies) een voorstelling van hoe zij de rhizomatische benadering heeft toegepast in haar onderzoek. Het gaat daarbij niet om "hét recept" voor het gebruik van een rhizomatische benadering in de onderzoekspraktijk, maar in de eerste plaats om de methodologische en inhoudelijke inzichten die dr. Sermijn uit haar onderzoek heeft verkregen. Er wordt daarom ook ruimschoots tijd voorzien voor vragen en discussie.
De voorstelling heeft plaats van 12u tot 14u aan de Universiteit Hasselt, Campus Diepenbeek, Agoralaan, gebouw D, lokaal A108.
Deze activiteit maakt deel uit van de thematische lijn "handicap" binnen het Steunpunt Gelijkekansenbeleid en staat open voor alle geïnteresseerde onderzoekers van het Steunpunt Gelijkekansenbeleid en de collega's van hun onderzoeksgroepen.
Aangezien een broodjeslunch voorzien wordt, is het noodzakelijk dat ieder zijn/haar deelname bevestigt voor 10/02/2014 via stefan.hardonk@uhasselt.be.
Voor vragen met betrekking tot bereikbaarheid en toegankelijkheid van de campus kunnen jullie ook bij hem terecht.

Equal is not Enough Conference Antwerp 4-6 Feb 2015
Dear colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to the international conference 'Equal is not Enough: Exploring novel theoretical and empirical approaches to study the shaping of (in)equalities' organised by the Policy Research Centre on Equality Policies (PRCEP).
The PRCEP organised its first 'Equal is not Enough' conference in 2006, and then again in 2010. The third edition of this conference will take place in Antwerp (Belgium) from 4 till 6 February, 2015.
'Equal is not Enough' conferences aim to generate a better understanding of contemporary inequalities by mobilising multi-disciplinary insights. This edition looks into the causes, consequences and the dynamics of inequality along socio-demographic lines in contemporary societies, and further examines the policies to combat it. It addresses grounds of inequality such as gender, gender identity and gender expression, ethnicity, sexual preference, disability, class, age, and educational background as well as their intersections. The conference is designed to stimulate fresh impulses and cross disciplinary interactions.
We now welcome paper and panel proposals. Proposals should reach us by the 1st of April, 2014, the latest. We invite you to submit your proposals online, via the 'Equal is not Enough' submission form.
The conference is organised in four thematic sections:
Section 1: The relation between law and social policy
Section 2: (Re)shaping (in)equalities in and through politics and policies
Section 3: Diversity and (in)equality in work and organisations
Section 4: Equality, policy and the life course
Key note speeches will be given by:
Professor Sylvia Walby (Lancaster University)
Professor Jeff Hearn (University of Huddersfield, Hanken School of Economics, and Örebro University)
Professor Dagmar Schiek (University of Leeds)
Further information on the conference theme, the keynote lectures, and how to submit proposals to the conference may be found in attachment. We also invite you to visit the 'Equal is not Enough' website.
For more information on the conference, please contact Dr. Eline Severs.
Feel free to circulate this invitation to your interested peers and professional networks.
We look forward to welcoming you.
Best regards,
Dr. Eline Severs, scientific coordinator of the Policy Research Centre on Equality Policies.
Professor Petra Meier, lead promoter of the Policy Research Centre on Equality Policies.

Prof. Dr. Daniël Cuypers Prof. Dr. Patrizia Zanoni
Prof. Dr. Petra Meier Prof. Dr. Koen Van Laer

THE NEXT CMS CONFERENCE
The International CMS Board is pleased to announce that the next CMS
conference will take place in July 2015 at the University of Leicester.
"Is There an Alternative? Management after Critique "
The conference theme: Is There an Alternative? Management after Critique,
reflects the interest in encouraging debate about alternatives to current
forms of market managerialism. CMS has been effective at mounting a
critique of various elements of the business school orthodoxy. Examining
and promoting different ways of thinking about organizing and markets, is
still an underexplored area.
The conference aims to encourage thinking which explores the idea of
alternatives. The alternatives could be understood in practical terms of
specific organizational forms and practices, or theoretical developments
(particularly in feminism, anarchism, communism, green thinking and so on)
which might encourage the generation of new forms of localism or
alter-globalization as resistance to neo-liberalism.
The Leicester School of Management, known for its diversity of critical
management scholars, will accommodate the exploration of this important and
contemporary theme. The conference aim is also reflected through the
diversity of the city of Leicester. The pricing and bursaries for the
conference will accommodate attendance from those outside North Western
Europe. A PhD workshop before the main conference will be organized in the
spirit of encouraging PhD attendance at the conference. The diversified
spirit of the conference will also be reflected through other activities.
Keynote speakers will be invited to address the topic of globalization and
alternatives and a number of panels will include activists and
practitioners, again with a particular focus on alternatives – worker
managed firms, co-operatives, complementary currencies and more.
Please visit the CMS website for further details
http://criticalmanagement.org An official call for themes and workshops and
further details will be distributed early next year. We look forward to
welcoming you at the Conference.
