This seminar deals with the interdependencies of religion and gender from transdisciplinary, transnational, and decolonial perspectives. The classes will consist of an introduction to the field of study namely religion and gender and will inquire into the power dynamics in transnational knowledge production into migration, the new anti-Semitism discourse, as well as discourses on genitals in global contexts. The block seminar will be divided into interdependent modules. Queer feminist and religious studies perspectives are combined with approaches from critical migration research. The students' own situatedness will be considered as part of critically reading texts. In this manner, students will learn to engage critically with knowledge production on a global scale from their own positionality.
