The lecture will rise the issue of possible frameworks of queer ecology, purposed by the pathbreaking work of Catriona Sandilands, Greta Gaard. In this hybrid exercise we will start with the basics, hegemonic ways of naturalizing sexual differences, the old nature\/culture debate, biological essentialism, ecofeminism (that accidently grounded itself on binary difference), and different assemblages of constructing the Nature.
Judith Butler, showed us decades ago that heterosexist gender performance produces a metaphysical distinction that separates \u201cinside\u201d from \u201coutside, male from female. The changing of the discourses, practices and politics around gender and sexuality marks the turning point in understanding our relationship with gender, environment and care. As such, queer as nonessentialist view of gender and sexuality in one hand and ecology as a study in dynamics and of interrelationships between living things, brings us to a symbiotic relationship. Grounded on interconnectivity and relationally and demanding that we meet the climate crisis and six extinctions with much needed transformation and cooperation strategies.
