Liebe Studierende,
Was haben Kämpfe um Saatgut in Kenia und Indien, Anti-AKW-Proteste in
Europa, feministische Wissenschaftskritik, Debatten um Subsistenz und
Care-Arbeit sowie aktuelle Klimaproteste gemeinsam? Sie alle lassen sich
durch die Linse des Ökofeminismus zusammendenken einer Perspektive, die
patriarchale, kapitalistische und koloniale Ausbeutungsverhältnisse
gemeinsam in den Blick nimmt und Alternativen erprobt.
Im Workshop Einführung in den Ökofeminismus wollen wir diese Perspektiven
gemeinsam erkunden: von theoretischen Strömungen über historische und
aktuelle Praxisbeispiele bis hin zu eigenen Visionen für eine gerechtere
Zukunft. Euch erwarten Inputs, Diskussionen, Gruppenarbeiten und kreativer
Austausch mit Raum für Erfahrungen aus Uni, Aktivismus und Alltag sowie
für gemeinsames Utopisieren.
Wann: Am Freitag, 07.11.2025 von 9-16 Uhr (mit ausreichend Pausen)
Wo: im NIG (Universitätsstraße 7) (genauer Raum folgt nach Anmeldung).
Anmeldung bis 01.11.2025 bei mir: emily.stueber(a)univie.ac.at
<mailto:emily.stueber@univie.ac.at> (Die Teilnehmer*innenzahl ist
begrenzt!)
Der Workshop findet auf Deutsch statt.
Willkommen sind alle Studierenden der Universität Wien unabhängig von
Fachrichtung. Besonders interessant könnte der Workshop für Studierende aus
Geschichte, Soziologie, Philosophie, Politikwissenschaft, STS, KSA, EST und
verwandten Fächern sein.
Es sind keine Vorkenntnisse oder sonstige Vorbereitungen erforderlich.
Falls ihr euch bereits mit Ökofeminismus beschäftigt habt oder aktivistische
Erfahrungen mitbringt, lasst es mich sehr gerne kurz wissen vielleicht
können wir euer Wissen gezielt in den Workshop einbauen.
Ich freue mich auf einen spannenden und inspirierenden Tag mit euch.
Liebe Grüße
Emily (Studentin im Master Epistemologien von Wissenschaft und Technik)

Intersex: Beyond Introductions! A Book Presentation on _Hermaphrodite
Logic_
This workshop will showcase the key arguments made by Juliana Gleeson's
new book _Hermaphrodite Logic_ (published June 2025):
1) That intersex advocacy followed on rapidly from intersex people
meeting one (on and offline) another in the early 1990s.
2) That this new intersex movement developed in conjunction with
feminist research, offering a moment of self-consciousness that was
spoken to by intersex advocacy's rhetoric, and wit ("90s edgy").
3) That their protests from 1996 to the present served as a revelation,
which challenged professional authority (specifically claims to clinical
"management"), and objectivity, and rewrote the history of sex (in ways
still being processed today).
Along the way, participants will be challenged in turn, with regards to
"intersex" being a topic that requires continual introduction. Gallows
humour guaranteed.
Juliana Gleeson is a writer and reader raised in west London, who now
lives in east Berlin. Her first edited collection was the pioneering
anthology _Transgender Marxism_ [1] (2021), which she oversaw with Elle
O'Rourke. Well noted for her love of two word titles, her first book
_Hermaphrodite Logic_ [2] was published this summer--addressing the
history and style of the intersex movement. She's currently writing
three follow-ups: a co-written philosophical manuscript _Dyke
Dialectics_, a collection of dialogues about sex hormones, and a brief
book on femininity's substance.
If you would like to participate in the workshop (which will be in
English), please send an e-mail to flora.loeffelmann(a)univie.ac.at.
No prior knowledge needed for participation, and students and staff of
all levels are welcome. There will be snacks and drinks!
After the workshop, participants are cordially invited to join for the
presentation of Gleeson's book [3], organized by Referat
Genderforschung, which will take place 19:00 at Kolingasse 14-16.
_Please save the date for the two next events of Trans*Formations this

*Call for Papers*
*Studies in History and Philosophy of Science*
*Special Issue: Adverse Allies: Hidden Harmonies Between Logical Empiricism
and Austrian Economics*
Logical empiricism and Austrian economics are arguably the two
internationally most influential intellectual movements with Viennese
roots. The Vienna Circle and the Viennese School of economics have shaped
the world-wide development of philosophical, methodological, scientific,
and political debate.
Yet, despite numerous connections and interactions between the two
movements, their relationship has captured surprisingly sparse attention in
historical and philosophical scholarship. If an account is provided at all,
logical empiricists and Austrian economists are portrayed as
philosophically, scientifically, and politically antithetical groups.
Recent scholarship has challenged this received view of opposition by
reconstructing hitherto neglected compatibilities and similarities between
the two movements. This special issue collects historical as well as
systematic contributions that highlight and discuss hidden harmonies
between logical empiricism and Austrian economics while acknowledging
remaining disagreements. Contributions that fruitfully inform contemporary
debates in philosophy, methodology, politics, or the sciences are
particularly welcome.
Deadline for Submissions: 30.11.2025
