Currently, there are enormous controversies about what feminism can and should mean

in the context of postcolonial debates, the politics of difference as well as the subversiveness

and ambiguities of aspects of contemporary popular culture.

This talk will reflect on my understandings of feminisms and postfeminism,

focusing especially on my personal navigation of "being a feminist" in the present day.

The guest lecture takes place in the course

„Globalization and Social Change“, Prof. Dr. Ingrid Jungwirth,
