Couched in socialist, revolutionary language, the Citizen Revolution has utilized a contradictory mix of messages concerning gender, sexuality and family, pointing simultaneously to the possibility and impossibility of queerness, understood as a challenge to colonial formations of sexual, gender and racial norms and taxonomies. In this presentation I address five key forms of resignification in the Citizen Revolution &#8211; family, nation, economy, life, and citizenship ? and argue that despite their revolutionary potential in &#8220;refounding&#8221; the nation and challenging colonial formations, more often than not these resignifications render queerness impossible.<\/p>\n<p>Coodinator: <strong>Hisako Motoyama<\/strong> (Ochanomizu University\uff09<br \/>\n<strong>Mariko Adachi<\/strong> (IGS, Ochanomizu University), <strong>Miyuki Daimaruya<\/strong>(IGS, Ochanomizu University)<\/p>\n<p>Admission Free<br \/>\nRegistration Form<\/p>\n<p>Organizer \uff1aInstitute for Gender Studies, Ochanomizu University<br \/>\nochagrads@gmail.com\uff08Motoyama\uff09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"template":"","events_category":[124],"class_list":["post-544","events","type-events","status-publish","hentry","events_category-events-2016"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www2.igs.ocha.ac.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/events\/544","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www2.igs.ocha.ac.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www2.igs.ocha.ac.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/events"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www2.igs.ocha.ac.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=544"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"events_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www2.igs.ocha.ac.jp\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/events_category?post=544"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
