If capitalism is characterised in part by the accumulation and expansion of capital, how and where does this take place? In other words, how is capital produced, and how are the social relations that facilitate this production re-produced? When and through which mechanisms did capital accumulation begin? Does our current system of accumulation have global or perhaps more regional (European?) origins? How can we understand the relationship between contemporary forms of globalization and colonial histories? What is the relation between production and reproduction, historically and today? How have anti-colonial and feminist thinkers – from Frantz Fanon to Silvia Federici – contributed to a re-thinking of the role of places, practices and actors long thought peripheral to (global) capitalist production? What role does sexuality play in this history of capitalism, and what does it mean to take a queer approach to the critique of capitalism? How are contemporary social movements contesting exploitation, alienation, inequality, appropriation, and injustices from within the nexus of production and re-production today?

In this seminar, students will engage critically with the work of Gargi Bhattacharyya, Christopher Chitty, Frantz Fanon, Silvia Federici, Nancy Fraser, Rahel Jaeggi, Karl Marx, Sandro Mezzadra and Verónica Gago, Rahul Rao, Cedric Robinson, Immanuel Wallerstein, and Raymond Williams.

• Gain a good critical understanding of research and debates within and beyond contemporary Cultural Studies around production and reproduction
• Explore the ways in which questions of (re-)production have been central to scholarship on capitalism, globalization and colonialism
• Address feminist, anti-colonial, and queer contributions to materialist thinking around production and re-production
