Jennifer Evans

I was trained as a modern European specialist but I teach a range of courses in German history and the history of sexuality. I have written articles and a book on the regulation of same-sex sexuality in Nazi and Cold War Germany, and am preparing a manuscript on pink triangle victims during and after the Holocaust. My next two research projects are contemporary in focus. One explores the use of web 2.0 in countering the rise of neo-Nazism while the other analyzes the role and place of fascist aesthetics in 1970s and 1980s queer pornography.

Dan Irving

Dan Irving is an Assistant Professor teaching in the Human Rights program and Sexuality Studies Minor Program (which he coordinates).  His research interests include: trans identities and politics; neoliberalism as a governing rationality and the politics of resistance. He applies a critical political economic framework to the study of transgender/transsexual/trans- subjectivities and activism.  His current research project analyzes corporate ‘managed diversity strategies’ to critique current approaches to gender identity and employment rights.  His newest project shifts his research trajectory away from the late-capitalist productive ethos in the West towards existing non-capitalist spaces fostered by queer economic organizations to contribute to interdisciplinary debates concerning socially just and radically democratic futures.
