RaumRoom 265Kontakt und Registrierung
This is a hybrid event. To register, please contact Maria Pirogovskaya.
Über diese Reihe
The group will scrutinize the categories of "waste" and "the body." We will examine the classificatory principles applied to define them in their temporal and geographical variations, and the meanings and potentials of waste in various sociocultural settings in order to allow for a better understanding of the ideologies and practices of dealing with animal and human bodies. We will explore this versatile topic through approaches from history of science and medicine, anthropology, environmental history and urban studies.
The general questions for discussion and investigation include (but are not limited to):
- What can be considered waste and what are the conditions and presuppositions for classifying it as such?
- How does bodily waste as well as regulations, practices, and values related to it enable better understanding of 'the human' and 'the animal'
- What opportunities does bodily waste open up for theorizing and thinking about knowledge production and society?

Troubling Epistemics and Postcolonialism
Organizer(s)AdresseMax Planck Institute for the History of Science, Boltzmannstraße 22, 14195 Berlin, Deutschland
RaumZoom/Online Meeting PlatformKontakt und Registrierung
Everyone is welcome to join. Registration is required for persons outside of the Institute. For registration and any questions about the seminar please contact Marianna Szczygielska.
Über diese Reihe
"Troubling Epistemics and Postcolonialism" is a monthly reading seminar interrogating 'postcolonial' as an analytic concept in the history of science. The goal is to understand the ethics and mechanisms of our own epistemic practices as they relate to politics and power. We aim to examine the ways that epistemology is both historically contingent and actively produced within the history of science with the goal of troubling our disciplinary positions. For each meeting we list and circulate
- a short 'provocative text' to carry the empirical element and to provoke us to go wider in attempting to attend to something that troubles. Everyone is expected to read that text. In addition,
- we identify two or three 'theoretical' or descriptive papers that we feel might be useful in 'attending to the trouble.' These are optional readings. The idea is that everyone who attends the discussion will have read at least the short provocation paper and bring some 'troubles' to the meeting.
