Event Description According to Harvey Molotch, Professor of Sociology and of Social and Cultural Analysis at New York University, public restrooms are radically unstable places at the intersection of the public and private spheres, providing a window on the social and political world. In his talk he will address question such as: How “public” are public restrooms? How is the line between private acts and public space negotiated in public washrooms? What can the toilet tell us about gender and cultural politics?
