DOING GENDER STUDIES PRODUCING KNOWLEDGE OTHERWISE

This volume is rooted in a commitment to epistemic justice in times of rising precarity in
academia. It seeks to question the hegemonic definitions of 'doing research'. Commitment to
gender studies  as the title suggests  is already an assurance to a form of research that is
'otherwise' - one that looks beyond neoliberal  competitive  and individual-driven agendas.
Moreover  the anthology is an attempt to unfollow hierarchies  confront oppressive structures
and question taken-for-grantedness in disciplinary knowledge production. The contributors are
part of the Inter-university Doctoral Program Gender Studies CH at the universities of Basel 
Bern and Zürich. They consist of professors  doctoral students  coordinators and further
scholars  that belong to the wider network. They have all 'done' gender studies in various
transnational and transdisciplinary contexts. Reflections on how knowledge is produced are thus
nurtured by diverse networks of feminist solidarity  an ethics of care and a politics of
situated research(ers). Authors engage with the politics of such an 'otherwise' in their
respective contexts to illuminate intersubjective and collaborative ways of 'doing gender
studies' and of 'producing research otherwise'.
