2nd ASN Conference: “Making Connections”
Loughborough University, U.K.
3-5 September 2012
I just finished up my Phd from Edinburgh about reciprocal ethics as an alternative to sexual difference as a way of thinking about the self and others. This drew heavily on queer theory, existentialist ethics and poststructuralist and other contemporary approaches to anarchism, but the basic gist was an anarchist ethics to be applied to identity and the self. Also did an MPhil in Australia on the topic of Australian anarcho-punk and gender which laid the ground for my PhD by linking up poststructuralist anarchism and queer theory approaches to gender and sexuality.
