Andrés Henao Castro
Assistant Professor, Political Science, UMass Boston
Specializations:
My research seeks to rethink the relationship between politics and aesthetics in relation to gender-differentiated colonial logics of capitalist accumulation. While focused on that question, I also want to reimagine the relationship between ancient and contemporary political theory, via the prisms of decolonial theory, critical theory, psychoanalysis, settler colonial critique, Marxism, queer of color critique, critical race theory, and poststructuralism.
