Language: English

This session will encompass bodies and the ways in which justice and corporeal knowing emerge in the present anthropocene.The various faces of violence afflict the bodies of the most vulnerable. We can say that there are several types of vulnerabilities and women, trans people, non-binary people, among others are certainly more susceptible to pressures from society, as well as various forms of violence. The purpose of this session is to address the most vulnerable bodies in relation to expressions of violence, institutional, sexual, reproductive, physical, among others. Different theoretical-methodological approaches that deal with gender relations are welcome, as well as research that reflects both the theoretical and empirical points of view on the subject. This session is the third session of the Bodied, (trans) Genders and Violences.
