I am a fourth-year PhD candidate in Philosophy enrolled in the collaborative program with International Development Studies. For my dissertation, I am interested to research the meaning of political solidarity from the 'ground-up', combining my own qualitative research and normative analysis.
In my research, I hope to explore the prospect of a transnational feminist solidarity, and advance an argument for what the requirements of such solidarity might be. Is it possible to theorize a transnational feminist solidarity among women from the Global South and the Global North, all the while meaningfully recognizing the vast differences and locations of women (racial, socioeconomic, religious, cultural)? Developing such an account would help us to understand the motivation for collective political action, and to theorize a conception of allyship that follows from it.
