There is an evident interest in the papers submitted for this year in locating intersections between bodies, politics, events, media, and epistemology. The sequence of the papers has been selected intentionally in order to call attention to those affinities and also to show how different conceptual and geographic borders are constantly being crossed both between and within the articles.
