SPS/01 - POLITICAL PHILOSOPHY

Period

Sem. 1A dal Sep 21, 2020 al Oct 31, 2020.

Learning outcomes

Western political thought has extensively concealed sexual differences behind the principle of the alleged equality of all individuals before the law. This course provides examples of critical philosophies that, on the contrary, have interrogated the relationship between politics and sexuality from the point of view of so-called ‘sexual minorities’, and have consequently developed new interpretative frames to understand the subject, collectivity, and political action.

At the end of the course, students will have to prove that they:
- accurately know the subjects of the program,
- are able to expose them in a consequential and concise way,
- have acquired independent judgement.

Program

Course title:
The Political Sexual: Freud, Fanon, Mieli, Foucault

Course contents (for both attending and non-attending students):
1. From 1900 onwards, a by now broad tradition of critical thinking has been problematizing the relationship between politics and sexuality. Firstly, the course will focus on three theoretical approaches that, each in its way, have engaged with the concepts of drive, desire and identification, developing different visions of that relationship: Freudomarxist theories of sexual liberation, social constructivist theories of sexuality and gender, antisocial queer theories.

2. Secondly, the course will try to mediate between constructivism and antisocial theories in the analysis of the monstrification of black man's sexuality made by decolonial, anti-racist, and feminist theories.

Methods:
Seminar classes, topic discussions.
