About this book
Reviews
—Guacira Lopes Louro, Professor of the Postgraduate Program in Education, Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil
“Moira Pérez and Gracia Trujillo-Barbadillo offer a very timely and unique intervention in the geo-politics of queer/cuir/cuy(r) epistemological thinking in education. The authors across the volume highlight the importance of queer pedagogies as political interventions opposing the unevenness of knowledge production. Translation is itself a corporeal process, where Luso-Hispanic travesías are uneven. It is not (only) about the discussion of ‘importing’ a concept and its colonial tones, but particularly about the problematic division between theory and activism, global Norths and Souths, as well as the embodiment of queer thinking from a situated (Southern) location.”
—María Amelia Viteri, Associate Professor of Anthropology, Universidad San Francisco de Quito (USFQ), Ecuador
“Queer Epistemologies in Education: Luso-Hispanic Dialogues and Shared Horizons offers English-speaking readers an intellectually exhilarating collection of essays that demonstrates the ways scholars and activists are taking up and reworking queer, or cuir, in shifting regional and national contexts. In political and epistemic landscapes across Ibero-America, decolonial practices, liberatory pedagogies, and interventionist research meet regressive movements labelling such work “gender ideology.” These essays remind readers in the so-called Global North that there is much to learn from creative struggles in the Global South, where alliances of social actors create new knowledges and practices to open possibilities for dissident sexualities. Want to think about queer interventions in Law Schools? Cartogenealogy? The production of a queer glossary? This is the place.”
—Susan Talburt, Professor of Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies, Georgia State University, USA
