THE EMPOWERING MOMENT
The processes of ‘shifting’ and ‘rooting’ can help to distinguish between differences that are of context and terminology and differences that are of values and goals. This can have very little to do with labels and stereotypes of ‘Otherness’…. Transversal politics recognizes the differential power positions among participants in the dialogue, but it nevertheless encompasses these differences with equal respect and recognition of each participant.(From “What is ‘transversal politics’?” Nira Yuval-Davis, Soundings Issue 12 Summer 1999.)
