Kay G: The Neglect of Labour

The Neglect of Labour

Economics and Philosophy

Routledge IAFFE Advances in Feminist Economics

Black women in the United States have often been the subject of negative stereotypes, which have distorted perceptions of their unique work history and the challenges that they have faced in providing for their families. Black Women in the U.S. Economy: The Hardest Working Woman challenges the popular rhetoric about black women by presenting an empirical analysis of their labor market experiences and the critical role that black women play in providing for and sustaining their families and communities. The book explores the multiple identities, roles, and experiences of black women in the U.S. economy, addressing issues including their contribution to the social economy, how they have been affected by U.S economic restructuring, and the impact of increasing economic inequality on the wellbeing of black women and children.

Black women in the United States have often been the subject of negative stereotypes, which have distorted perceptions of their unique work history and the challenges that they have faced in providing for their families. Black Women in the U.S. Economy: The Hardest Working Woman challenges the popular rhetoric about black women by presenting an empirical analysis of their labor market experiences and the critical role that black women play in providing for and sustaining their families and communities. The authors use a Black Feminist framework along with applied microeconomics and econometrics in order to understand the multiple identities, roles, and experiences of black women in the U.S. economy. The book’s multi-dimensional analysis covers issues including black women’s contribution to the social economy, how economic restructuring in the U.S. has impacted on black women, and how declining wages since the 1970s have led to economic inequality and the impact that this has had on the wellbeing of black women and children. All chapters situate their analysis of the economic status of black women within the context of market forces, social relations among counter-groups, and political economy. This groundbreaking study will be essential reading for all those with an interest in Economics, Women’s Studies, Africana Studies and Sociology.

The Hardest Working Woman

Black Women in the U.S. Economy

Gilles Deleuze considered 'assemblage' theory to be his most significant contribution to philosophy. It's a complex and nuanced concept and one that is central to how Deleuze and Guattari constructed their theoretical work. In Assemblage Theory and Affect Ian Buchanan continues his project of demystifying this key theory and introducing its primary qualities. Buchanan argues that assemblage theory, as conceived by Deleuze and Guattari, is primarily about desire. And, further to that, there is no greater manifestation of desire than 'affect'. Indeed, in order to understand assemblage you also need to understand affect and vice versa. In this first introduction to how assemblage and affect impact, shape and require each other, Buchanan outlines the meaning of both concepts for contemporary philosophy, art, cultural and critical theory and politics. In applying these theories to real life practices and experiences, the concepts are given clarity and force. An original, lucid and inventive work by one of the foremost Deleuzian thinkers in the world, Assemblage Theory and Affect proposes new avenues for thinking about the contemporary world.

Assemblage Theory and Affect

Economics as Social Theory

Experiencing the Market explores the often-neglected phenomenon of 'the market' as individuals actually experience it by focusing on the culture, sociality and morality of markets. This thought-provoking and engagingly-written book will ensure that markets are given their due prominence in the future study of economics.

Innovative and cutting-edge, this book proposes an alternative philosophical framework for economics which will reconfigure economics and social theory as historical disciplines that analyze successive standardizations of social practices.

Routledge Research on Decoloniality and New Postcolonialisms

This book analyzes the philosophical "voyages" of the Muslim self through close readings of 20th century South Asian works in the Muslim modernist, Marxist, and postcolonial intellectual traditions. It demonstrates how the legacies of Marxisms and anti-colonial humanisms have shaped Muslim Anglophone literatures of the present.The book concentrates on Indo-Pakistani political and literary forms related to subjectivity by writers who lived in Britain, or who are British, such as Muhammad Iqbal, Ahmed Ali, Zulfikar Ghose, Hanif Kureishi, and Kamila Shamsie. Building on Brennan's new theory of anticolonialism, it emphasizes neglected relationships in both postcolonial and materialist conceptions of subjectivity, such as the dialectic between oral culture and religion.This book offers groundbreaking and innovative new perspectives, consituting a shift to a new generation of postcolonial studies focused on humanism. It will be of interest to students and scholars in Geography, Asian Studies, Literature, and Cultural Studies.

Focusing on the concept of slowness in Gilles Deleuze's philosophy, this book diverges from the conventional interpretation of Deleuze as a philosopher of speed or even accelerationism, instead delving into the minor but critical themes in his works, from idiocy to catatonia. Advocating for a pragmatic reading of its source material, it utilises Deleuze's thought to address the urgent challenges in contemporary political and social philosophy, particularly the issue of acceleration in its subjective, socio-political, and ecological dimensions. The first part discusses the significance of analysing "slowness" and introduces the problem of social acceleration, featuring also the relationship of Deleuze's thought with theorists rarely invoked in Deleuzian scholarship, such as Martha Nussbaum or Hartmut Rosa. Using a wide range of examples and sources such as the lesser explored Deleuzian literary inspiration Heinrich von Kleist and Madame de La Fayette, the second part of the book delves deeper into the three manifestations of slowness in Deleuze's philosophy: the conceptual personae of the idiot, the animal, and the catatonic. These personae and the concepts they help develop are explored as potential strategies of active resistance against the facets of social acceleration. With this book that radically opposes today's enamourment with speed and efficiency, Krzysztof Skonieczny shows how a Deleuzian theory of slowness can inspire productive resistance in the three areas that have been most vulnerable to omnipresent acceleration: our subjectivity, profoundly changed by the accelerating pace of life; our socio-political milieu, ruled by corporate efficiency; and our relationship to the environment, quickly heading towards catastrophe.

This book pays homage to a rock band that has most influenced alternative culture, the Grateful Dead. It critically discussing the evolution of the libertarian spirit in the USA, which was born and developed in the 1960s and merged in the last three decades into a libertarian ideology, based on individual freedom, antistatalism and the primacy of the spirit of the self-made man. Examining how this transition was functional, on the one hand, to high-tech digital innovation and, on the other, to the spirit of new platform capitalism. Andrea Fumagalli suggests that the process of capturing the libertarian spirit for capitalist purposes, which represents one of the clearest examples of "life subsumption", the acknowledgment that the life of individuals at the very moment that it triggers processes of social cooperation is a potential source of subversive behaviour, and how this can turn into a powerful tool for today's capitalist valorisation.

Amartya Sen - who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Economic Science in 2003 - is one of the leading economists of his generation. The important new book provides an exposition and assessment of Amartya Sen's socio-economics, both positive and especially normative, including his contributions to welfare economics, ethics and the theory-and-policy approach of 'human development'. The exposition and assessment will include discussion of the historical and intellectual contexts. The book also analyzes Sen's contributions to philosophy, the second field in which Sen has published and held appointments.

@text Amartya Sen - who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Economic Science in 2003 - is one of the leading economists of his generation. He is best known for his deep critique of the liberal and utilitarian inheritances in economics, including the treatment (or neglect) of values and value-judging in public contexts; and his construction of a partial alternative, including entitlements analysis, the capabilities approach and, extending from those two, an integrative development philosophy centered on the direct and instrumental values of freedom and democracy. The important new book provides an exposition and assessment of Amartya Sen’s socio-economics, both positive and especially normative, including his contributions to welfare economics, ethics and the theory-and-policy approach of ‘human development’.

India and Pakistan's strategic thinking has unfolded hence shifting re-constructions of India-PakistanâEUR(TM)s nationalist identities, (in)securities and their nuclear policy choices. Through a blend of materialism and constructivism, this study not only recasts the dynamics of India-PakistanâEUR(TM)s nuclear politics from a more non-traditional angle, but also contains policy implications by drawing attention to how ideological underpinnings of policy makers - who interpret and construct their world of strategic thinking - impact inter-state nuclear security affairs.
