- Elizabeth A. Povinelli, Franz Boas Professor at Columbia University, is a philosopher and anthropologist who has critically engaged with Michel Foucault’s ideas as well as scholarship inspired by his works. Povinelli has been dedicated to research on colonialism within liberalism and is also a filmmaker and founding member of The Karrabing Film Collective. The film collective is part of a larger organization of Aboriginal peoples and artists living in the Australian Northern Territory that refuses ‘fantasies of sovereignty and property’.[1]As Povinelli shares with us during the interview, her trajectory was constituted in the middle of the 1980s following her life-changing encounter with the elders in Belyuen in the Australian Northern Territory. In the wake of that encounter, and with urgent issues raised about indigeneity due to changes in Australian law, Povinelli has been working even closer with her Karrabing family. The changes in law both acknowledged Aboriginal peoples' rights to their territory and imposed certain ideas of identity, family and culture, producing an entanglement between rights and government. These efforts to manage differences – cultural, race, gender – are problematized and deciphered in Povinelli’s ethnographic work with a focus on how late settler liberalism has been reconfigured with novel expressions of colonialism and imperialism.

Organizational Imaginaries: A conceptualization by first growing theoretical breasts
- 2023
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Often seen to arise from utterly anthropomorphic activity, it is unclear what sort of humannessthat has been espoused through conceptualizations of imaginaries within organization andmanagement theory (OMT). We investigate this by first elaborating on how researchers canacknowledge a more wholesome humanness in a counter to ballsy theory (Cunliffe, 2022), tothen provide a queering metaphor - the growing of theoretical breasts - to infuse humannessdifferently. We assess existing conceptualizations of imaginaries within the field in relation totheir core metaphors and assumptions about ‘the human’, to then create our ownconceptualization of ‘organizational imaginaries’ based on breasty thinking. Instead of beingdependent on the ‘lived experience’ of research participants, this method for thinking differentlycan be used to enliven unpopulated theory-driven papers through the ‘lived experience’ of thetheoroi - the theorizing self. This embedding of theory within humanness is of particularimportance when desired futures are assumed to be reached through Anthropos’ exclusivecapacity to generate imaginaries. Queering metaphors for a contemplative and careful craftingof a theorizing self, can also facilitate unique positions, pluralism in theory, and embodiedknowledge production.
