- More about Power of Vulnerability: Mobilising Affect in Feminist, Queer and Anti-Racist Media Cultures
This collection presents a critical and historicising investigation of contemporary debates on affect, power and agency in queer, feminist and antiracist media cultures. Through a range of in-depth case studies, the book explores the potential as well as the constraints of vulnerability as a new political language.
This book is available as an open access ebook under a CC-BY-NC-ND licence.
This book investigates the new language of vulnerability that has emerged in feminist, queer and antiracist debates on media, taking a particular interest in the historical legacies and contemporary forms and effects of this language. Contributors such as Jack Halberstam and Sara Ahmed examine how vulnerability has become a battleground, how affect and vulnerability have turned into a politicised currency both for addressing and obscuring asymmetries of power, and how media activism and state policies address so-called vulnerable groups. Taking on such heated topics as trigger warnings and diversity policies, the book will be of interest to scholars and students in media and cultural studies, affect theory, gender studies, queer theory and critical race studies.
