Columbia Global Paris Center

May '68 captured a revolution in many aspects of social life, but few have considered how the discourse and understanding of sex changed since this time. If May '68 shifted attitudes towards sex, what new worlds of sex have emerged during the last 50 years? 
This conference brings together a diverse range of perspectives from literature, social theory, history and philosophy to consider questions of sex and gender, queer and trans theory, body and desire and the new worlds of robots and sex and how our worlds of sex have been transformed and challenged since '68.
