Material type: TextSeries: Theory reduxPublisher: Cambridge : Polity Press, 2018Description: 140 pagesContent type: text Media type: unmediated Carrier type: volumeISBN: 9781509520633 (pbk.) :Subject(s): Feminism | Society | SocietyDDC classification: 305.4'2 Summary: In an era of accelerating technology and increasing complexity, how should we reimagine the emancipatory potential of feminism? How should gender politics be reconfigured in a world being transformed by automation, globalisation and the digital revolution? These questions are addressed in this book by Helen Hester, a founding member of the 'Laboria Cuboniks' collective that developed the acclaimed manifesto 'Xenofeminism: A Politics for Alienation'. Hester develops a three-part definition of xenofeminism grounded in the ideas of technomaterialism, anti-naturalism, and gender abolitionism. She elaborates these ideas in relation to assistive reproductive technologies and interrogates the relationship between reproduction and futurity, while steering clear of a problematic anti-natalism.Item type | Current library | Home library | Collection | Shelving location | Class number | Status | Date due | Barcode | Item reservations | |
