||Insurgent Voices in Education
The Spring 1996 issue of trans/forms, "Constructions of
Knowledge/Activations of Desires will consider the knowledges that get
produced in institutional sites such as the family, law, academia,
medicine, popular culture. We are interested in submissions that explore
the social, historical, economic, political conditions under which
knowledge gets produced; who and what influence these conditions; the
effects of subject location(s) on knowledge production, how knowledge
production informs/constructs different subject positions; how and why
bodies have been theorized in the aforementioned sites; how knowledge
about bodies is organized, authorized, and marginalized; how cultural and
institutional sites construct and regulate articulations of bodily desire;
how desire is silenced/punished in knowledge production, the kinds of
investments and desires that mobilize, and are mobilized in the
production of knowledge.

|
|* knowledge as a site of resistance
