Strategic Focus
The “Power and New Subjectivities: Other Places of the Political” Group responds to the need to address political issues, problems and phenomena not registered in the conventional fields of political science or overlooked from traditional perspectives and disciplinary approaches to the social sciences. In this sense, issues and phenomena related to peace, feminism, decoloniality, other epistemologies, and new citizenships have been addressed from the work of researchers belonging to the group and the different research seedbeds it accompanies.
Research Areas and Topics
- Culture, politics, and citizenships for peace
- Other epistemologies
- Politics, spirituality, and ancestral knowledge
