Making Bodies. Managing Lives is the name of an interdisciplinary undergraduate seminar offered by the FFyH-UNC between 2015 and 2018. The seminar aimed to generate a link between teaching and research and originated in the work of the research team of the same name (SECyT-UNC) based at the María Saleme de Burnichon Research Center (CIFFyH-FFyH-UNC).
The proposal of the teaching team, whose composition was always markedly interdisciplinary, initially focused on investigating the analytical potential of Foucauldian biopolitics, feminist thought, and queer/cuir theory for addressing situated research, paying special attention to local processes. These topics and issues generally share a common focus on bodies, always understood as sexual bodies—whether individual or collective—their materiality, their discursivity, and the narratives that are constructed and/or imposed upon them.
As its editors maintain, this e-book is a pause to reflect on the work that students and teachers carried out within the framework of the seminar and aims to recover the discussions that took place within that space, going beyond it.
Haciendo Cuerpos. Gestión de Vidas is part of the CIFFyH Collections, an initiative of the María Saleme de Burnichon Research Center (FFyH) in conjunction with the FFyH Publications Department, which seeks to strengthen the production and dissemination of the work of the Center's research groups, encourage the participation of students, graduates, and teachers in the production and circulation of knowledge, and generate institutional spaces that enable such circulation.
