In den letzten Jahren haben nicht nur Mobilisierungen gegen Feminismus und 'Gender', sondern auch die Kommerzialisierung und der inflationäre Gebrauch des Wortes "que er" in Alltag und Wissenschaft stark zugenommen. Dazu kommen alarmierende Aneignungsbestrebungen sozialer Bewegungen wie die Querdenker_Innen im Zuge der COVID-19-Pandemie. Mehr denn je sind Gender Studies und que erende Theorien daher auf die Entwicklung emanzipatorischer Gegenstrategien angewiesen. Mit "Querulieren" leihen sich die Autor_Innen einen Begriff mit eigener Geschichte im deutschsprachigen Raum, den sie aufgreifen, durchbrechen, verschieben und umfunktionieren. Es geht um eine interdisziplinäre und mehrdimensiona...

Sobald sich Museen mit Sexualitäten anhand von Objekten beschäftigen, stellen sich Fragen nach Repräsentation, Macht und Verantwortung. Wie können Museen dem Anspruch gerecht werden, möglichst viele Perspektiven aufzunehmen und abzubilden? Wie kann damit umgegangen werden, dass sich mit der Entscheidung für ein Objekt eine andere Leerstelle öffnet? Und welche Rolle spielen dabei die Gefühle der Mitarbeiter*innen des Museums? Der Sammelband lässt Praktiker*innen zu Wort kommen, die über Ansprüche und Herausforderungen in der Arbeit mit sexualitätsbezogenen Objekten reflektieren.

This book traces the practices of migration control and its contestation in the European migration regime in times of intense politicization. The collaboratively written work brings together the perspectives of state agents, NGOs, migrants with precarious legal status, and their support networks, collected through multi-sited fieldwork in eight European states: Austria, Denmark, Germany, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Sweden and Switzerland. The book provides knowledge of how European migration law is implemented, used, and challenged by different actors, and of how it lends and constrains power over migrants’ journeys and prospects. An ethnography of law in action, the book contributes to soci...
Accessible communication comprises all measures employed to reduce communication barriers in various situations and fields of activity. Disabilities, illnesses, different educational opportunities and/or major life events can result in vastly different requirements in terms of how texts or messages must be prepared in order to meet the individual needs and access conditions of the recipients of accessible communication. This handbook examines and critically reflects accessible communication in its interdisciplinary breadth. Current findings, proposed solutions and research desiderata are juxtaposed with reports from practitioners and users, who provide insights into how they deal with accessible communication and highlight current and future requirements and problems.
British photographer Tariq Zaidi presents a fashion subculture of Kinshasa & Brazzaville: La Sape, Societe des Ambianceurs et des Personnes Elegantes. Its followers are known as 'Sapeurs' ('Sapeuses' for women). Most have ordinary day jobs as taxi-drivers, tailors and gardeners, but as soon as they clock off they transform themselves into debonair dandies. Sashaying through the streets they are treated like rock stars - turning heads, bringing 'joie de vivre' to their communities and defying their circumstances.

Towards a New Social Contract Ars Electronica 2023 is dedicated to the complex questions of truth and the concept of ownership in this digital age. In doing so, the festival navigates the central questions of our time. The focus is on how our perception of "authentic" and "original" is being transformed and whether truth can be owned, and how this relates to digitalization and the rapidly developing performance of artificial intelligence. How can the achievements of a tool that is so much based on the globally collective "raw material" of knowledge and creativity be made accessible to everyone and be harnessed to the benefit of all? This comprehensive volume brings together the works of artists, scientists, developers, designers, entrepreneurs and activists from around the world and delves deep into the themes of the festival, offering insights, perspectives, and thought-provoking content that reflect on the intersection of art, technology, and society.
