Learning outcomes
The Seminar, organized in collaboration with the Orlando Association, is aimed to provide a critical gender perspective on some current cultural, philosophical, legal and socio-political practices. Its focus is on the geopolitical contexts of Europe and the Mediterranean area, with an interest in the features characterizing our technical and cognitive practices.
Course contents
The Seminar is titled "The European issue: geopolitical and biopolitical scenarios. Bodies, spaces, conflicts and inventions". The Seminar tries to answer a series of questions as follows: What does Europe currently look like compared to what the Manifesto of Altiero Spinelli and Ernesto Rossi stated in regard to the "pressing tragic necessity" of European unity? What roles are the different member states playing, and what dynamics characterize the whole of Europe today? What contribution can women, gender and queer studies make to the European Union, not as a bureaucratic institution, but as a body capable of playing a democratic role in the face of rising migration flows, increasing national closures, widespread terrorist attacks, freedom and nonviolent coexistence and the satisfaction of claims to individual, economic, social, legal self-determination in connection with the individual and collective rights of migrants and minorities?

Teaching methods
The course consists in lectures, supported by multimedia tools. The lectures will take place in the first semester from 5 to 7 PM, Monday and Tuesday, at the Ex convento di Santa Cristina, Piazza Giorgio, 2, Bologna. Lectures will start on October 16, 2017 and will end on December 5, 2017.
Assessment methods
The final exam can be either written or oral, depending on the student's choice: students will thus be asked to select a topic from the syllabus and either hand in a paper or make a presentation on that topic. In either case, the examination will be geared toward assessing the student's ability to engage critically with the current issues.
