The Institute for Queer Theory is a transdisciplinary research institute dedicated to gender, sexuality, and desire. Its main objectives are to construct research material and frameworks related to Queer Theory, its communication to the public, and the facilitation of international exchange of these ideas between researchers, artists, and activists.

History

The Institute was founded in 2006, in Hamburg, Germany, as an extramural center for research by philosopher and critical theorist Antke Engel in Hamburg, Germany, in 2006. Engel then moved the institute to Berlin, Germany, where it has been based ever since. Despite the rising influence of Queer Theory within the discourses of Gender Studies, the Institute of Queer Theory remains one of the few institutional stewards of these ideas in the German speaking world.^[1]

Activities

The institute shares the main tenets of Queer Theory, that is the critical investigation of hetero-normative gender relations and the strengthening of non-hierarchical forms of social difference. It organises conferences, workshops, seminars, and exhibitions at the intersection of scholarly, art-based and activist knowledge production.^[2]
