The international conference intends to train a spotlight on the link between lived urban materialities and embodied social inequalities and their intersectionality. It will ask how conflicts manifest intersectionally in and through urban space and what forms of violence may be involved. We thereby hope to gain a deeper understanding of (urban) social conflicts, notions of spatial injustice as well as different forms of violence in the city, including those produced by capitalism and heteronormativity, and classed, gendered and racialized exclusion.
Confirmed keynote speakers include Martina Löw, Heidi Mirza, Carla Shedd, Nikki Jones, Shilpa Phadke, Edlyne Anugwom, Pierrette Hondagneu-Sotelo, Ben Campkin and Thomas Hoebel.
Organized by the CRC 1265 (“Re-Figuration of Spaces”), TU Berlin
