In the book "Utopia of alliances, conditions of impossibilities and the vocabulary of decoloniality", the contributors deal with individual terms of the current discourse on decolonialism in individual texts, thus developing a comprehensive dictionary on the topic. The aim was to combine academic and activist knowledge and to question European knowledge. The question of what decolonial theory does - what role it plays in the discourse - is also addressed. Read more about The book Utopia of alliances, conditions of impossibilities and the vocabulary of decoloniality, to listen to Marissa Lobo and Marina Gržinić as well as Encarnación Gutiérrez Rodríguez.

Women pay more almost everywhere. Equality looks different - not only are women paid less, they also always have to pay more than men - whether at the dry cleaners, hairdressers or insurance companies.

In the Anglican Church of England women will in future be able to become bishops. After years of discussion, the General Synod adopted the new church law with a clear majority.
