This workshop aims to return to this vital issue by examining the body from within and without. A predominant idea is that above all a body needs to be ‘fit’, i.e. fitting into or with the overarching body of which it is part. Whilst a body’s fitness may provide it with its capacity to act, the relationship between overarching bodies and their constitutive parts is still an unsettled debate. Neither are overarching bodies like our societies fully determined by our individual bodies nor are our individual bodies a white canvas at the discretion of such social bodies. Convenors: Antonia Pont, Joeri Mol, Graham Sewell, Kamila Moulaï, Jon and Laurent Taskin
