This panel will address the question of intimacy under the mechanisms of state power. How do we study personal, institutional and community relations that are permeated by traces of the state? Panelists will investigate the ways in which power operates intimately, in the tenderest and closest ways. How do we define "intimacy" in these instances, and are there new ways of imagining what it means for us to be intimate?
