Belgrade Women's Studies Center, The Centre for Women's Studies,
Zagreb, and Rutgers (State University of New Jersey) Women's and
Gender Studies Department are pleased to announce the 6th annual
postgraduate course in Feminist Critical Analysis--Be/longing and
Citizenship. The course will be held at the Inter-University Centre,
Dubrovnik (www.hr/iuc/) on May 23-27,2005. This course will be
co-directed by Rada Boric, Center for Women s Studies Zagreb,
Croatia;

and
Joanna Regulska Women's and Gender Studies Deparment, Rutgers
University.
TOPIC:
As new forms of global and supranational governance emerged, and
where
the transnational flows of people, goods, and capital intensified,
citizenship, in which each citizen was given certain rights and
obligations under the nation-state, has lost its power. Thus the
focus on democratic, flexible, insurgent, cosmopolitan, post-national
or multilayered aspects of citizenship are just few of the current
discourses that attempt to determine citizenships' meaning, content
and location. In recent decades, women's demands for full political
participation have mobilized their legitimate legal and political
inclusion in the category of Citizen. Current aspirations toward
participation have laid claim to citizenship However, feminist
theorists and activists have criticized the conceptual assumption
around the notion of Citizenship, arguing that it reproduces the
boundary of public/private ther eby reproducing/reinforcing patriarchal
formations.
This course will explore the problematics of citizenship as be/longing
and the ways in which the desire for citizenship is interpolated in
and through be/longing. In keeping with the rigor of feminist theory,
the course will not lose sight of the issues of accountability and
responsibility which have, precisely through feminist insights, been
brought to bear on the contemporary framework of citizenship. It will
provide a framework for an in depth critical engagement with both the
implicit and explicit assumptions of Citizenship. In particular,
participants will have the opportunity to think critically about the
broad sexual, gendered, national (etc.) implications of the rhetorics
of Citizenship. Part icipants will rethink citizenship (as well as
be/longing) in terms of the construction of gender difference, state
practices that exclude particular groups of women, and women's
symb olic role in national and local discourses.
