<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#211D1E">These are difficult questions. The answers we might give benefit from collective thinking and learning. Researching Post-Capitalist Possibilities is a short course that offers PhD students and early career researchers
(ECRS) the opportunity to explore these questions with scholar members of the Community Economies Collective who have been thinking outside or beyond capitalist relations since the publication of J.K. Gibson-Graham’s
<i>The End of Capitalism (As We Knew It): A Feminist Critique of Political Economy
</i>in 1996.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="Pa2" style="margin-bottom:8.0pt"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Gotham Narrow Light";color:#211D1E">The first three days of the course will explore the conceptual foundations of feminist post-capitalist thinking. The second three days
will focus on how to imagine and enact post-capitalist possibilities through research practice. Prior reading preparation will be required. In addition to key works by J.K. Gibson-Graham and CEC scholars on the Diverse Economy and Community Economies, readings
and lectures will engage with other contemporary approaches that are working at the frontiers of socio-political thought including: material semiotics, post-development, ecological humanities, resilience theory, psychoanalytic theory, assemblage politics and
commoning. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-autospace:none"><span style="font-family:"Gotham Narrow Light";color:#211D1E">This six-day intensive will provide early stage PhD students with a demanding immersion in social theory debates. For more advanced doctoral scholars
and ECRs it offers the opportunity to clarify and refine their research contribution. Sessions will combine lectures, small group discussions, fishbowl discussions, walking seminars and collaborative exercises. The course leaders are co-editors of the University
of Minnesota Press Book Series <i>Diverse Economies and Liveable Worlds </i>and will offer one session focused on conversion of theses into books.</span><span style="font-family:"Georgia",serif;color:#953735"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
