Womanhood & International Relations

149. Kirthi Jayakumar on Anticolonialism in International Relations


Listen Later

Are we confined by the coloniality of knowledge within the International Relations field? What type of IR analysis is accepted, reproduced or legitimized? And, by who? How and why are feminists from the Global South subverting IR theories and FFP's through praxis? Why decolonial and anticolonial standpoints on world affairs are growing? Which safe spaces and forms of expressions do people have to reflect upon them? 

An interview with Kirthi Jayakumar, peace educator, lawyer and founder of the Gender Security Project.
