Abstract

The motivation to proposed a new dossier for Aletheia Magazine about memories and experiences of dissident gender identities in Argentina presents great challenges, personal and professional. It drives encourages to dispute questions, to demonstrate the problems that go through span and structure the academic-university environment. These reflections are synthetically found in this paper, that is the result of reflections are synthetically found in this paper, the result of continuous exchanges shared with Blas Radi, in our capacity as coordinators of the dossier. Blas is a professor of philosophy, a doctoral fellow (CONICET) and a Human Rights activist. He is a professor of Gnoseology at the Faculty of Philosophy and Letters of the University of Buenos AiresFacultad de Filosofí­a y Letras de la Universidad de Buenos Aires and co-coordinator of the Free Chair of Trans Studies. This writing is the product of joint exchanges, often paused and disperse; of questions and answers built together over the last moths. This writing is the product of joint conversations, choppy, leisurely, of questions and answers built over the last months. A dialogue that seeks to open new questions about how we understand, build and inhabit academic-university spaces, what strategies are deployed in the intended search for inclusion policies and what are their limitations that we cannot escape. This leads us to rethink how we understand gender and identities.
