Mark F. N. Franke is a professor in and the Director of the Centre for Global Studies at Huron University College and, until recently, was a long-time core faculty member in the Centre for the Study of Theory and Criticism at Western University, both in London, Ontario, Canada. Franke’s teaching critically engages with cultural, discursive, and ideological formations of subjectivity and social/political relations in worldwide systems, focusing on problems in forced migration, patriarchy, racism, spatial/temporal constructions, mobilities, law, coloniality, citizenship, and governmentality. He is the author of Global Limits: Immanuel Kant, International Relations, and Critique of World Politics (2001) and has published journal articles and book chapters on questions of refugees’ rights, hospitality ethics, politics of movement, politics of critique, neutrality, political geographies of displacement, electronic technologies managing human movement, Indigenous self-determinations in law, and pedagogies of experiential learning. Franke’s current programme of research studies the politics of bicycling, as a form of modernist mobility that opens possibilities in how social spacings are formed, focusing on objectives in feminist politics, queer activism, antiracism, transportation justice actions, decoloniality, environmentalism, and critical movements in architecture.
