¿Qué es “lo queer”? ¿Cuáles son sus orígenes y herramientas teóricas? ¿Cuáles son sus discrepancias con un sector del feminismo que lo considera un caballo de Troya dentro del movimiento? En un momento en que estos debates parecían haber pasado, la reacción del llamado sector trans-excluyente y la ultraderecha los han traído de vuelta, alimentando no pocos malentendidos. “Lo queer” no es un producto neoliberal ni las personas queer eligen su sexo/género/identidad así, sin más. Las teorías queer aportan muchas claves para entender de forma más fluida cuestiones relativas a los géneros, las sexualidades, identidades y corporalidades, más allá de los binarismos. Adem...
De manera rigurosa, minuciosa, sugerente e innovadora, este volumen trata de los feminismos pasados y la variedad de los actuales en la lucha por el reconocimiento y la garantía plena de la equidad de género en asuntos de enorme complejidad que actualmente, como entonces, implica serias disputas tanto en el ámbito teórico y discursivo como en asuntos enteramente prácticos que, quizá por cotidianos, no siempre parecen posibilitar un debate abierto y profundo sobre el momento sociocultural que así se ejemplifica en la variedad de perspectivas y temas que aún son un motivo de atención significativo para los movimientos feministas y sus demandas políticas.
Un acontecimiento intelectual y académico sin precedentes. La obra de referencia sobre los grandes saberes, debates y las reconfiguraciones actuales de los estudios de género. La discusión relativa al género se ha establecido con fuerza en el actual debate público. Nunca antes se han requerido herramientas que faciliten al público interesado alcanzar un panorama riguroso y amplio de las cuestiones y debates abiertos. La potente irrupción de la última ola feminista ha conseguido enfocar experiencias, demandas y daños invisibilizados por los marcos simbólicos dominantes que solicitan urgentes intervenciones políticas y reformas legislativas. Estos procesos se producen en distintos e...
«No sabría deciros muy bien de qué va mi libro porque trata de muchas cosas. En él analizo de qué manera los discursos de señores como Freud nos siguen afectando; también es un trabajo de recuperación de una historia necesaria para muchas, de defensa de la bisexualidad como herramienta de desestabilización y como identidad política. Y, por supuesto, este libro va de feminismo y de teoría queer, de mantener luchas hermanas y de generar alianzas inesperadas. Aquí encontraréis unas pinceladas al aire que, quizá, a alguien, igual que a mí, también le hagan falta». Ana Amigo «Este libro tiene los ingredientes necesarios para seguir pensando de manera crítica y avivando la reflexión colectiva frente a las ortodoxias, las intransigencias y los actuales marcos discursivos del conmigo o contra mí... vengan de donde vengan». Gracia Trujillo
How have radical print cultures fostered and preserved queer lived experience from the 1960s to the present? What alternative stories about queer life across Europe can visual material reveal? Queer Print in Europe is the first book devoted to the exploration of queer print cultures in Europe, following the birth of an international gay rights movement in the late 1960s. By unearthing these ephemeral paper documents from archives and personal collections, including materials that have been out of circulation since they were first distributed, this book examines how the production and dissemination of queer print intersected with the emergence of LGBTQ+ activism within specific national conte...
This book analyzes the problems that arise when women's rights conflict with the views of conservative organized religion. Specifically, it addresses the legalization - or lack thereof - of divorce and abortion in three recently democratized Catholic countries: Spain, Chile, and Argentina. Offering a vital and timely contribution to political debates on democratic consolidation, social policy, gender, politics and religion, it challenges many of the accepted assumptions and conclusions in these fields, arguing that to understand the political dynamics and policy trajectories on these issues we must first analyze the distribution of both economic and political power. Merike Blofield moves the...
'Presentist democracy is without a people and without nation. Rather than regimes of borders and migration, its borders are sexism and racism, homo- and transphobia, colonialism and extractivism.' In the midst of the crises and threats to liberal democracy, Isabell Lorey develops a democracy in the present tense; one which breaks open political certainties and linear concepts of progress and growth. Her queer feminist political theory formulates a fundamental critique of masculinist concepts of the people, representation, institutions, and the multitude. In doing so, she unfolds an original concept of a presentist democracy based on care and interrelatedness, on the irreducibility of responsibilities-one which cannot be conceived of without social movements' past struggles and current practices.
In May 2004, after bringing their legislation into accordance with EU regulations, ten more countries joined the European Union. The contributors to this volume assess the impact of this historical development on gender relations in the new and old EU member states. Instead of focusing on either western or eastern Europe, this book investigates the similarities and differences in diverse parts of Europe. Although initially limited, gender equality was part of the original framework of the European Union, an organization often more open than national governments to feminist demands, as this volume illustrates with case studies from eastern and western Europe. The enlargement process thus provides some important policy instruments for increasing equality between men and women.
