The workshop that aims to address current debates relating to the epistemological status of intersectionality as well as its potentials and limitations for individual disciplines and for interdisciplinary research. Particular attention is paid to the potentials and hurdles of the concept of intersectionality as an interdisciplinary analytical tool.
Questions to be discussed from both the perspectives of academic and political practice are: Does the concept represent a theory, a heuristic or a methodology? Who 'owns' the concept? Who can work with it and how? What insights can be gained by addressing religious, cultural and linguistic diversity with the concept of intersectionality? Can the concept also be applied beyond the Euro-American horizon of experience and what adaptations might be necessary?
