We contend that a subjective function exists in the design and use of spaces, and that sexuality, politics and spaces form a common platform for social processes in urban territories. Our argument is based on several investigations into what we will define as “urban sexual cartographies”, with the intention of presenting some ideas about their theo...
This paper reconceptualizes children as already-being- citizens within kindergarten learning environments. It draws on Foucauldian heterotopology to show what type of heterotopias entangle two and three-year-old in everyday place-making practices and how they empower themselves to inhabit learning environments as creative citizens. After a collabor...
À partir de mes différentes implications sur le terrain de l’éducation, cette recherche expose une analyse ethnographique d’utopies situées, définies comme des contre-espaces aux lieux institutionnels (Foucault, 2009). Créées par des artistes et des militants associatifs, ces hétérotopies proposent des dispositifs de pratiques artistiques et ludiqu...
In this text I analyze the contemporary practice of urban professional midwives in a midwifery house. I am interested in showing how the parties build their profession and workplace in dialogue with local, national and global processes. My reflection emerges through ethnographic work with the team of La casa de Iemanjá, a house of midwifery located...
Diplomsko delo obravnava pojem prostora v njegovem izključevalnem smislu. V prvem delu s pomočjo Foucaultove filozofske misli in njegovih raziskav na področjih razvoja psihiatričnih ustanov in zaporov izpostavi prostor v odnosu do nekaterih njegovih glavnih pojmov, kot so oblast, nadzorovanje in disciplina. Nadalje razloži sam pojem oblasti kot kom...
Abstract This article examines the notion of spatial politics in Tom Stoppard’s Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead. The two eponymous characters enter the politically convulsive world of Hamlet, where scarcely any legitimate power structure controls the state. Their regularized political rationality ceases to apply to the world; reality violates...
Resumo Neste artigo buscamos entender os circos contemporâneos desde a perspectiva das heterotopias organizacionais. Realizamos uma aproximação teórica entre Estudos Baseados em Práticas nos Estudos Organizacionais e o conceito de heterotopias desenvolvido por Michel Foucault. A partir de uma etnografia multissituada focada nos processos organizati...
Les espaces cinématographiques singuliers que le cinéma de Kim Ki-duk a explorés peuvent être qualifiés d’hétérotopiques. Ils sont non seulement grotesques, maussades et excentriques, mais aussi réellement situés en Corée, à savoir localisables. Une part notable du travail de ce metteur en scène consiste à repérer des hétérotopies au sein de la soc...

This paper considers the play Incendies (MOUAWAD, 2013) as a fictional “making" in the sense proposed by Foucault (1994) of writing history. It aims to investigate how a set of heterotopic experiences can give rise a corresponding set of problematizations concerning the historical connections of childhoods with truths. For this purpose, the paper d...
