Privatization and Social Responsibility – Atlanta, GA
Emory University School of Law presents Privatization and Social Responsibility Feb. 17-18, 2012. The call for papers deadline was yesterday, Dec. 8, 2011.
This workshop explores from a cross-cultural perspective how privatization impacts contemporary feminist and social justice approaches to public responsibility. Feminisms have long problematized divisions between the private and the political, partly in reaction to the unprecedented privatization of state responsibilities and public welfare over the past 30 years. Recent critical legal scholarship on vulnerability, state negligence, and resilience can complicate and deepen our understanding of the problems generated by privatization in the 21st century.
