    Funding Provider: This podcast is funded by the EU's Cost Action Decolonising Development (CA19129): www.cost.eu. The Action works towards a resetting and diversification of the structures, institutions and spaces in which knowledge about and for development is produced, shared, contested and put into practice. Decolonisation of knowledge about ‘development’ cannot mean to maintain a paternalist binary of those already developed and those less developed but must scrutinize the structures and institutions that maintain power imbalances and the ideas that support paternalistic relations and assumptions of superiority according to intersectional (read: gendered, racialized, classed etc.) objectification of the Other.

  • Questioning ideas of criticality
    Nov 10 2023

    Welcome back to Season 2! This season we will explore ideas of Criticality, Creativity and Care.

    In this first episode we invite Dr Ida Birkvad, Fellow in Political Theory in the Department of International Relations at LSE, and Dr Alexander Stoffel, Lecturer in International Politics in the School of Politics and International Relations at Queen Mary University of London, to discuss the idea of criticality. This episode was inspired by their article "Abstractions in International Relations: on the mystification of trans, queer, and subaltern life in critical knowledge production" in the European Journal of International Relations and subsequent blog piece in E-International Relations.
