Chimakonam: African Philosophy and Global Epistemic Injustice)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many scholars have noted what Chimakonam calls the \u201cexclusions and lopsidedness in global epistemic discourses\u201d that privilege Western European and white North American traditions of thought. Significant gaps in knowledge ensue. Gaile Pohlhaus, Jr describes how \u201cdominantly situated knowers refuse to acknowledge epistemic tools developed from the experienced world of those situated marginally.\u201d That refusal has a strategic function, permitting \u201cdominantly situated knowers to misunderstand, misinterpret, and\/or ignore whole parts of the world.\u201d In a Eurocentric arena of knowledge, knowers are too often, in Pohlhaus\u2019s words, \u201ccaptivated by a distorted picture of the world.\u201d Within Europe and globally, epistemic authority is further inflected by geography, class, gender, and many other factors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The third CAPONEU consortium conference explores perspectives on how cultural and geopolitical knowledge travels in the political novel. Our approaches take in but also go beyond Western European and North American epistemologies; intersectional approaches; and\/or explorations of novels as political in the sense that they have an epistemologically transformative impetus. If knowledge can travel across class barriers, time, space, and communities, how might political fiction be its vehicle? In the European context, how can we better apprehend travelling knowledge, and the political impetus and potential it brings with it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Keynote speakers<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Day 1: Shambhavi Prakash<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Day 2: James Ogone<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Day 3: Divya Dwivedi<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Day 4: B.
