Q2. What is the first case to discoverbuild a social space?
In the first case to discoverbuild a social space crossed by fuzziness, hybridizations and transversalities, in the second to discover-build a space populated by infinity of interdependencies5.
Q3. What is the main merit of the queer movement?
The crip movement, although born in a context of discussion about the autonomy of the disabled, is greatly influenced by the discovery of the body that the queer performs.
Q4. What are the keys to the incorporation and subordination of bodies?
The representation of difference as a deviation and the discourses that legitimize such a process, are the keys to the incorporation and subordination of bodies.
Q5. What is the definition of the "Able-bodied gaze"?
Both the "medical gaze" (projected onto the organism), and the "able-bodied gaze" (on the functioning), are performative; in other words, they act in the production of the normative body.
Q6. What is the reason why the crips consider their bodies as carriers of transformation methods?
For this reason, the crips consider their own bodies as carriers of transformation methods, because through embodied experiences they react to the devaluations of the norm, turning towards the body as a place of knowledge, instead of the categories that seek to name it or the mechanisms that try to discipline it (Abbott, 2010).
Q7. What is the definition of the term "Able-bodied gaze"?
Under the "able-bodied gaze", able-bodied precedes functionality in terms of importance, so it does not consider different functionalities as different expressions of possible functioning that are truly functional (Toboso and Guzmán, 2010).
Q8. What is the meaning of the phrase "Blossoming of tonalities"?
When the Chinese decided to open it and dissect it, a practice that was much less common than among the Greeks, they did not see the muscles and nerves that the Mediterraneans considered striking, but the "blossoming of tonalities" (p.197), an expression that they used to designate the flows of humors that circulate according to complex but precise coordinates.
Q9. What is the case with the embodiment paradigm?
This is the case, for example, of the embodiment paradigm used by Brooks (2018) to build his robots, since they learn and develop without using a system of representations or "reason" at all, but by simply incarnating and self-organizing from the disturbances by which they are affected.
Q10. What is the difference between cultural relativism and multiculturalism?
That is why, in the West, cultural relativism and multiculturalism have been invented to coexist with multiple human cultures, the Native American Indians have developed, with their perspectivism, a multinaturalism that is the opposite of a (cultural) representation, since perspectives express points of views of the bodies.
