About
In addition to her continuing adjunct appointment in the Department of Philosophy, Jacqueline Davies is cross appointed to the Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s Department of Gender Studies. She is also a member of the Jewish Studies Faculty Advisory Committee and a faculty associate of the new Cultural Studies graduate program at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s. Teaching at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션s since 1990, she is convinced of the epistemic necessity of interdisciplinary research.
Her research interests include intersectionality, diaspora, and feminist thought, as well as Jewish philosophy, and twentieth century continental thought. Her recent publications focus particularly on the work of Emmanuel Levinas viewed through the lens of 20th century aesthetic and communications technologies (cinema, medical imaging, and the internet). These publications include: 카지노 게임 컬렉션Others in the Ether: On Levinasian Internet Ethics by Design카지노 게임 컬렉션, in Design Principles and Practices: An International Journal Vol. 3, 2009; 카지노 게임 컬렉션Premature M/Othering: Levinasian ethics and the politics of fetal ultrasound imaging카지노 게임 컬렉션, in Embodiment and Agency: New Essays in Feminist Philosophy, Sue Campbell, Letitia Meynell, and Susan Sherwin eds. (Penn State 카지노게임사이트 Press, 2009); and 카지노 게임 컬렉션Reading Levinas in The Apartment", in Feminism and Hospitality: Gender in the Host/Guest Relationship, Maurice Hamington, ed. (Rowman and Littlefield, forthcoming).
Her publications of note include reflections on pornography and objectification, as well as co-authored introductory textbooks on critical thinking and on social analysis in Canada. She is a frequent reviewer of manuscripts in critical thinking, feminist thought, bioethics and applied ethics. Current research on the legalized sex trade in Germany marks a return to extended philosophical reflection on some of the grittier realities that motivate engaged feminism and critical theory.
