- Description
- Author's research focuses on two-spirit, queer and trans people of colour (2-QTPOC) media making as a process of movement building. In doing this work, author finds it not only useful, but necessary to theorise affectively in order to affirm the generative quality that 2-QTPOC media can hold. 2-QTPOC media can constitute sites and processes that reckon with the tensions ever-present in political resistance by attending to the tensions between representation and embodiment, ideology and lived experience, direct action and dreams.

- Description
- Author investigates areas of knowledge production in contemporary queer-feminist punk countercultures in/from the US and draws a connection from countercultural accounts to academic anti-social queer theory. Based on the thesis that queer-feminist punk–countercultures, bands, musicians, writers and organizers–can be understood as a political movement, their productions—lyrics, writing, sound and performances—will be seen as a form of queer-feminist activism and agency. The main argument developed in the article is that queer-feminist punk countercultural agents do not only engage with queer and feminist politics, as well as academic theory, but also produce queer-feminist political theory—a more or less coherent set of ideas to analyze, explain and counter oppressive social structures, as well as explicit and open violence and oppression.

- Description
- 'This special edition investigates the contested nature of the sex industry, a global industry operating within socio-political contexts that have witnessed an array of changes in recent years. The papers contribute to advancing critical understandings of the ways in which the changing social landscapes have been experienced by those engaged globally in commercial sex work. This edition seeks to agitate some of the polarised debates often present within sex industry discourses by exploring some of the oftentimes overlooked nuances – the blurred lines – between the different sex markets, between sex as work and other forms of labour, between agency and constraint, and between care and control. It represents a shared vision to combine the voices of academics with those working within the sex industry and with practitioners, in order to offer a meaningful consolidation of research and lived experiences: one that does not simply grant lip-service to ‘empowering a marginalised and stigmatised social group’.'

- feministische ideologiekritiek, marxisme, kapitalisme, 21e eeuw, paper
- Description
- In this paper, author elaborates on the value of the notion of affect and the related concept of affective labour for a feminist-materialist critique. The core argument is that an affective conception of the relationship between subject and structure would allow for a constructive intervention into the definition of ‘materialism’ that builds the ground for any critical social theory, but remains unfinished in the Marxist tradition. For that purpose, it will however be necessary to develop the concept of affect beyond the common, decidedly a-political interpretations that are part of the New Materialist Feminism, as well as beyond the overly emphatic connotations that the post-Workerist tradition has attached to it with regards to its immeasurable characteristic that might allow for the creation a non-capitalist future from within our present.

- Description
- 'Gender theory is not exactly feminist theory, but in many ways it builds directly upon its assumptions and innovations. This essay explores the ways in which the category of analysis ‘gender’ reconciles its heritage of political consciousness and activism with its place in a more scientific or philosophical discourse, and attempts to demonstrate how it can remain indispensable as a political and ethical tool. To do this, it discusses and challenges competing narratives of oppression and postmodernist accounts of social reality. Through a discussion of the ‘non-human person’, this article concludes by questioning the value of the ‘human’ as a productive category of analysis, and argues that the destabilising of disciplines which the study of ‘gender’ provokes may also serve to unmask inherited assumptions about the analytical concept of the individual subject.'
