[spectre] PROLOGUE-BLN: New Feminism/New Europe - The Language of Resistance

[Valie Djordjevic]

PROLOGUE-BLN - NEW FEMINISM/NEW EUROPE
THE LANGUAGE OF RESISTANCE
8 - 10 December 2006, bootlab, Berlin

The Language of Resistance is an attempt to confront the dissonance
within European Feminist discourses and establish a forward thinking
agenda that takes into account the multiple discourses and histories
of the past. As part of a series of events that have taken place in
Graz, Austria, and Manchester, United Kingdom, the infinite Prologue
continues. Rethinking how we view what has already come to pass and
how we imagine the future - most importantly, analyzing the conditions
for living and working in Europe today from a feminist perspective.
