SEM 2 D1105
March 21 ~ 7PM Wed

"Political Economy and Social Movements", "Women’s Studies: Native Women in the 20th Century", "Academic Writing", and the Academic Deans will be hosting Women's Studies professor and scholar Delia Aguilar on Wed. March 21 for an evening lecture.

Delia D. Aguilar has written extensively about different aspects of feminist theory, feminism and nationalism, and the women's movement in the Philippines. Her work has appeared in Monthly Review, Feminist Review, and Race & Class, among other publications. She is the author of three books, all published in the Philippines: The Feminist Challenge, Filipino Housewives Speak, and Toward a Nationalist Feminism. Noting the pronounced withdrawal from notions of class and labor by feminist writers in the past decade or so, Aguilar co-edited a collection of essays, Women and Globalization (Humanity Books, 2004), as an attempt to restore production relations into feminist thought. Aguilar was a fellow at the Bunting Institute of Radcliffe College and has taught women's studies and ethnic studies at Bowling Green State University and Washington State University. She now teaches women's studies at the University of Connecticut.
