This exciting text critically analyses the contradictions, tensions and often-paradoxical aspects that characterize such politics, both in relation to identity and to activist practice. Aristea Fotopoulou examines how activists make claims about rights online, and how they negotiate access, connectivity, openness and visibility in digital networks. Through a triple focus on embodied media practices, labour and imaginaries, and across the themes of bodily autonomy, pornography, reproduction, and queer social life, she advocates a move away from understandings of digital media technologies as intrinsically exploitative or empowering. By reinstating the media as constant material agents in the process of politicization, Fotopoulou creates a powerful text that appeals to students and scholars of digital media, gender and sexuality, and readers interested in the role of media technologies in activism. | 出版日期 | Book 2016 | 关键词 | development; feminism; media; network; new media; social change; social science; activism; digital | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1057/978-1-137-50471-5 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-349-70035-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-137-50471-5Series ISSN 2634-6397 Series E-ISSN 2634-6400 | issn_series | 2634-6397 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2016 |
