  Abstract:

  While ambivalence is conceived of as paralysing, conflicting attitudes in fact allow people to act, and to understand an action, political action included, we must often identify a cluster of ambivalent attitudes, identities and identifications one maintains, forms and expresses. In this talk I will focus on Shaharazad’s individualistic and thoroughly ambivalent tour de force.
