Dickeson-inspired "program prioritization" processes at Canadian
universities;
• Efforts to implement and extend audit cultures in the form of
performance indicators, merit pay, post-tenure reviews and related
provisions;

Summer school "Sexuality and Morality"
Lisbon, 21-26 April, 2014

Intensive Course on Sexuality and Morality
Intensive Course

Sexuality and Morality: Intercultural Perspectives and Mediations

Lisbon, Lisbon University Institute

Third edition: 13-18 January, 2014

Fourth edition: 21-26 April, 2014

The course "Sexuality and Morality: Intercultural Perspectives and
Mediations" will be held at the Lisbon University Institute (ISCTE-IUL),
in Lisbon, Portugal, from the 13th to the 18th of January 2014, and from
the 21st to the 26th of April 2014.

Around 20 participants will be accepted.

Scholarships are available from the Grundtvig Program funded by The European
Commission (see below). Please note that the deadline for applying for these
scholarships is the 17th of September 2013.

Objectives and Rationale

From the very beginnings of anthropology the entanglements of sexuality
and morality have captured the imagination of scholars, challenging their
normative assumptions and calling into question their descriptive and
interpretative tools. What can be said of these entanglements at the
beginning of the 21st century, after decades of research on the matter?
Are there still unbroken taboos in the social sciences? How are we to
understand sexuality and morality, and how can these issues be
investigated? How are relations between sexuality and morality being
(re)defined? What is the role of religion, politics, and commerce in
(re)shaping these relations?
How can anthropology improve our understanding of such complex
entanglements?
