(Con)tested Knowledge: Production, Formation, and Deconstruction.

April 1-5, 2027

Venue: University of Tübingen (Liebermeisterstr. 12, 72076 Tübingen, Germany),

Organizer: 

International Academy of Practical Theology (IAPT)

Knowledge is multifaceted: it is produced in many places, it has many different contexts, follows different rules, and it is created and shared among individuals, groups and societies. At the same time, prevailing understandings of knowledge have often been shaped by Eurocentric epistemologies that are historically entangled with colonial and imperial power structures. Feminist, ecological, post- and decolonial scholarship has therefore emphasized the need to interrogate dominant epistemic frameworks and to attend to marginalized forms of knowing and wisdom that emerge from different historical and social locations. With the conference theme, we want to focus on diverse forms of (religious) knowledge and emphasize their values as well as their challenges in today´s struggles.
