Rooted in the experience of Latina\/o histories, Lugones asserts the potential of active subjectivity for \u201c<em>los marginales<\/em>,\u201d mostly but not only folks of color, who reside at the interstices of multiple oppressions. \u00a0Generated at the point of praxis, her methodological and epistemic interventions are intimately attentive to flesh-and-blood realities and oriented towards the creation of deep and expansive coalitions of understanding\/practice.<\/h4>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<h4>Despite Lugones\u2019s central place in theorizing resistance against multiple oppressions at the turn of the century, her thinking is rarely engaged with the depth and complexity afforded to other philosophers in general and other Latina and Chicana theorists in particular.\u00a0 This anthology addresses the need to recognize the extent and import of her contributions to philosophy and other fields of inquiry while also establishing multiple entries into her <em>oeuvre<\/em>.\u00a0 Accordingly, we welcome essays that engage and apply central concepts elaborated in Lugones\u2019s body of work as well as contributions that situate her thought in relation to various areas of knowledge.\u00a0 In the spirit of speaking face to face\/<em>hablando cara a cara<\/em> from the concreteness of body-to-body encounters with one another, we seek contributions that cultivate multiple sites of connection and innovative modes of complex communication. Overall, this collection intends a deeply interdisciplinary dialogue inspired by Lugones\u2019s thought and aimed at expanding the readership of her work.<\/h4>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<h4>Central points of engagement with Lugones\u2019s work may include:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h4>Lugones\u2019s relationship with and contributions to feminist theory, queer theory, epistemology, phenomenology, coloniality\/decoloniality, U.S. Latino\/a Studies, Latin American philosophy, structural multiculturalism and critical race theories of sexuality<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>Major influences on Lugones\u2019s philosophy over time and their impact on her body of work<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>Epistemic, phenomenological, and ontological contributions in Lugones\u2019s theorizing about \u00a0multiplicity, including multiple subjectivities, multiple \u2018worlds\u2019 of sense, and multiple oppressions<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>Lugones\u2019s reconfiguration of spatiality and temporality to facilitate decolonization<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>The impact of Lugones\u2019s praxical thinking and streetwalker theorizing<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>\u00a0\u00a0Decolonial feminism and the colonial-modern gender system<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>\u00a0\u00a0Lugones\u2019s emphases on (inter)subjectivity and active subjectivity in understanding experience<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>Lugones\u2019s critique of philosophy and socio-political thought when they place knowledge production outside the social or as a way of disengaging from the concrete<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>The centrality and marginalization of Lugones\u2019s work in theoretical disciplines and activist circles<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>Lugones\u2019s concepts of \u201cdeep coalition\u201d and \u201ccomplex communication\u201d<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>Lugones\u2019s theorizing of radical multiculturalism, the politics of knowledge production and its consequences for Women of Color and peoples with colonized histories<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<h4>Other topics that highlight the significance of Lugones\u2019s contributions to the content and practice of theory<\/h4>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><\/h4>\n<h4><strong>Abstract Deadline:<\/strong> October 15<sup>th<\/sup>, 2013<\/h4>\n<h4>Abstracts should be substantial 500-1000 word descriptions of the proposed submission, detailing how the potential contribution speaks to the call for papers.\u00a0 Those accepted will be notified by November 15, 2013.
