Joanna Kellond

Caponeu Team Member • Scholar

She works between political theory and cultural studies to explore the interrelation of social and symbolic change, with a particular interest in the philosophy, theory, politics and aesthetics of social reproduction and care. My research draws on a range of perspectives including psychoanalytic, feminist, queer and decolonial theory.

She is part of the University of Brighton team, exploring the idea of the political in support of CAPONEU. She is editing a special collection on ‘Thinking the Political’ for the Open Library of Humanities Journal for the project. Additionally, as part of the CAPONEU project, specifically Brighton’s work on ‘political fictions,’ she is also exploring the relationship between the novel and the ‘political fiction’ of the family, with a particular focus on the intersection between contemporary works and the politics of family abolition.
