Gilbert S: Girl on Girl / B

Girl on Girl

How Pop Culture Turned a Generation of Women Against Themselves

In eleven essays of inquiry from different scholarly traditions, the authors in Microutopias and Everyday Hope examine the potential that resides in utopian thinking on smaller scales. Basing their explorations in material ranging from music, TV-series, film, and literature to concrete sites, the reflections that result engage in a conversation that steers our attention to the details of aesthetics that are increasingly being drowned out in the polycrisis. However, our attention to detail in less spectacular venues and in the everyday is required if we are to imagine alternative futures differently, and better. Caught in late capitalism's relentless and dystopian march toward the abyss, any kind of future is predicated on utopian thinking in the present. The essay collection is therefore also an appeal to the crucial importance of the humanities as providing the glue that can withstand our contemporary's fragmentation. Ultimately, this collection highlights the crucial importance of the humanities in order to withstand and even move past the contemporary societal fragmentation being experienced globally.

Microutopias and Everyday Hope

From the author of Enemy Feminisms and Abolish the Family, a fierce critique of femmephobia within feminism, and a vision of a life-giving femme feminism for all. 
 
For two centuries, feminists have tried to be respectable and serious. In Femmephilia, Sophie Lewis makes the case for the vital political importance of "femmeness": a femininity that is self-consciously artificial, a femininity whose erotic and political appetites are considered unacceptable and unnatural. Being femme is a kind of work that merits love and respect-but femmes instead face criticism from antagonists and feminist allies alike.&nbsp; 
 
Where neoliberal women's empowerment has failed to combat the eruption of right-wing, anti-trans, and anti-feminist attacks, Lewis argues that femmephilia can help us imagine a radical future. In essays on the high femme genius of Marilyn Monroe and trans yearning in the myth of Apollo and Daphne; on tradwives and girlbosses, reluctant heterosexuals, lesbian separatists, and anti-work cats; and on a mother on strike from maternity and a poet who mothered against motherhood, Femmephilia offers a new logic of liberation for all feminized people.&nbsp;

The Sage Handbook of Digital Labour&nbsp;is a comprehensive exploration of the multifaceted and evolving concept of digital labour. Originally coined in Marxist analyses to explain the exploitation of user data in the digital economy, the term has since expanded to encompass a wide range of paid work influenced by digital technologies. This includes traditional jobs transformed by platforms, new roles emerging in today¿s digital society, and cultural producers like influencers and online creators. The handbook also addresses the material aspects of digital labour, highlighting its dependence on traditional manufacturing and manual labour.
This volume brings together leading scholars from diverse disciplines to examine the intersections of labour and digital technologies. It approaches digital labour as an interdisciplinary field of inquiry, exploring the material and ideological conditions of work in contemporary society. The handbook aims to chart the extensive territory of digital labour studies, covering theoretical traditions, key concepts, emblematic sites of production, normative cultures, and worker subjectivities. It also showcases the spectrum of worker organizing repertoires and tactics across the world.
The handbook is organized into seven sections. Section 1 highlights major theoretical traditions, while Section 2 focuses on the material sites along production chains. Sections 3 and 4 delve into key concepts and sites of production, and Section 5 explores normative cultures and worker subjectivities. Section 6 examines worker organizing tactics, and Section 7 introduces research methods for scholars in the field. The volume concludes with discussions on how digital labour studies can provide unique perspectives to imagine digital futures.
The Sage Handbook of Digital Labour&nbsp;is an essential resource for scholars, practitioners, and students seeking to understand the complexities of digital labour. It provides a comprehensive and nuanced exploration of the field, equipping readers to engage with the theoretical and practical aspects of digital labour in a rapidly changing world.
Part 1: Theoretical Traditions 
Part 2: Material Sites of Production 
Part 3: Key Concepts in Digital Labour 
Part 4: Emblematic Sites of Production 
Part 5: Normative Cultures and Worker Subjectivities

Exposed

How a lifelong engagement with experimental art informed the brilliant Czech-Brazilian philosopher Vilém Flusser’s early vision of a world dominated by glowing screens. Predicting the importance of technology and images in the twenty-first century as early as the 1970s, Vilém Flusser warned, “the basic structure of our thinking is about to experience a mutation.” The bewitching images and screens that surround us could lead toward a centrally programmed, totalitarian society—or another, better one characterized by dialogue and collaboration among humans and new forms of intelligence. In this book on the idiosyncratic and prescient Czech-Brazilian philosopher, art historian and critic Martha Schwendener explores the profound effect of art on Flusser’s thought. The Society of the Screen reveals how Flusser’s lifelong engagement with experimental practices—from abstract painting and concrete poetry in Brazil to video, cybernetics, and photography in Europe and the United States—as well as his extensive involvement with the São Paulo Biennial informed his belief that we were moving from “history”—a civilization informed by linear writing—into “post-history,” dominated by technical images. The book delves deeply into how Flusser’s ideas evolved, particularly in correspondence and collaboration with artists like Mira Schendel, Fred Forest, Wen-Ying Tsai, Harun Farocki, Louis Bec, and Karl Gerstner.

Film Thinks

In a period of expanding representation for women and LGBTQI+ people in cinema, television and other screen media, Judith Butler's groundbreaking writing on gender and identity is more relevant than ever. This is the first book to focus on the ways in which film has shaped the influential philosopher's thought. Since the 1980s, Butler's theories - particularly on 'gender performativity' - have been widely used to analyse representations of gender on screen. And equally, Butler has turned to films that spotlight drag performances and transgender people to re-examine the materiality of gender identity. In Judith Butler and Film, author Temmuz Süreyya Gürbüz explains how Butler cites growing up in the movie theatres their family owned as formational to their understandings of gender and sexuality, traces the influence of films such as Paris is Burning (1990) and Boys Don't Cry (1990) on their work, and also considers the documentaries Butler took part in. Moving beyond established film theory, Gürbüz draws from recent trans film theory, and also includes a final chapter on the idea of cinema as a form of embodiment - connecting this phenomenological approach with Butler's interest in experimental, collective and avant-garde filmmaking.

Digital Culture & Society

Technologies and technological futures are always socially situated, relational, and enmeshed in (dominant) narratives of societal sense-making, which have the power to bring future ideas into material existence. The issue brings together articles exploring popular techno-futures from international and interdisciplinary perspectives, including cultural and media studies, science and technology studies, and related disciplines. The contributors decenter the discussion on socio-technical futures and the role of popular culture, aesthetics and media in their (re)production by focusing on societal tech-future discourses from global popular perspectives.

Reihe: Wie wir leben wollen

Frauen sind heute alles - Erfinderinnen, Unternehmerinnen, Präsidentinnen. Doch je ambitionierter, erfolgreicher und unabhängiger eine Frau ist, desto mehr hakt es in der Partnerschaft. Ob beim Dating oder in der Ehe - bricht die Rollenverteilung mit den Normen, bleiben diese beeindruckenden Frauen manchmal lieber alleine, statt sich kleiner machen zu müssen. Viele Männer fühlen sich überfordert vom ungewohnten Beziehungsgefälle und verweigern sich einem Update der Rollenbilder.&nbsp;Bianca Praetorius betrachtet den Drahtseilakt der Liebe aus feministischer Perspektive: Warum haben Männer Angst vor starken Frauen? Und was passiert, wenn Frauen&nbsp; 'nach unten' daten? Sie spricht mit betroffenen Frauen und Männern, porträtiert Paare jenseits von Rollenklischees, zeigt den Stand der Forschung und lässt Paartherapeut:innen zu Wort kommen. Ihr Buch liefert wichtige Denk- und Debattenanstöße und entwickelt die Vision gleichberechtigter Partnerschaften - damit die 'Female Success Penalty' nicht der letzte Endgegner im Kampf gegen das Patriarchat bleibt.&nbsp; 'Zu wenige Männer sind bereit, eine wirklich gleichberechtigte Beziehung zu führen.&nbsp;Wo liegt das Problem, und wie können wir das lösen? Bianca Praetorius hat dazu einige sehr kluge Ideen.' KRISTINA LUNZ 'Erfolgreiche Frau? Gern. Solange ich erfolgreicher bin... So ähnlich erwischte ich mich selbst beim Lesen und schämte mich. Hinter der Scham entdeckte ich dank Biancas klugen Fragen einen unfassbaren Beziehungsschatz.' WALDEMAR ZEILER
