Dianna Taylor: Counter-violence — A Beauvoirian Response to Sexual Violence?
Manage episode 321790116 series 3322639
In this episode, Dianna Taylor argues in favour of feminist counter-violence as responses to the sexual violence that both underpins and is reproduced by gender oppression. Beauvoir provides a concept of counter-violence in her discussion of resistance against fascist and colonial violence — and even if Beauvoir does not do so herself, we can extend this concept to her analysis of feminist liberation.
This lecture is moderated by Guilel Treiber.
Hosted by Ashika Singh and Liesbeth Schoonheim
