Session I
What knowledge is produced by reading these papers together?

We will ask each participant to speak for three minutes on one point that they learned from reading the papers together. Possible points include: What do we learn about the consequences of the separation between sexual and economic justice? The obstacles to bringing them together (both in practice—from the experiences of those who have tried to do it—and conceptual, methodological, theoretical)? The lessons—what works, what not to do? The foundations for co-constitutive treatment of the two spheres? What foundations can we identify regarding issues? Movements? Frameworks?
