Abstract

Dit werk analyseert de interrelatie tussen gender en technologie, of hoe gender-terminologie is verwerkt in de technologie en hoe technologie invloed uitoefent op de gender-notie. Hierbij wordt de verhouding tussen zin en afschuw voor technologie behandeld, en de ambivalente houding van met name vrouwen tegenover machines.

Abstract

This timely and engaging book argues that technoscientific advances are radically transforming the woman-machine relationship. However, it is feminist politics rather than the technologies themselves that make the difference. TechnoFeminism fuses the visionary insights of cyberfeminism with a materialist analysis of the sexual politics of technology.

Abstract

The Posthuman offers both an introduction and major contribution to contemporary debates on the posthuman. Digital 'second life', genetically modified food, advanced prosthetics, robotics and reproductive technologies are familiar facets of our globally linked and technologically mediated societies. This has blurred the traditional distinction between the human and its others, exposing the non-naturalistic structure of the human. The Posthuman starts by exploring the extent to which a post-humanist move displaces the traditional humanistic unity of the subject. Rather than perceiving this situation as a loss of cognitive and moral self-mastery, Braidotti argues that the posthuman helps us make sense of our flexible and multiple identities. Braidotti then analyzes the escalating effects of post-anthropocentric thought, which encompass not only other species, but also the sustainability of our planet as a whole. Because contemporary market economies profit from the control and commodification of all that lives, they result in hybridization, erasing categorical distinctions between the human and other species, seeds, plants, animals and bacteria. These dislocations induced by globalized cultures and economies enable a critique of anthropocentrism, but how reliable are they as indicators of a sustainable future? The Posthuman concludes by considering the implications of these shifts for the institutional practice of the humanities. Braidotti outlines new forms of cosmopolitan neo-humanism that emerge from the spectrum of post-colonial and race studies, as well as gender analysis and environmentalism. The challenge of the posthuman condition consists in seizing the opportunities for new social bonding and community building, while pursuing sustainability and empowerment.

Abstract

De auteurs verwerpen het ideen dat vrouwen meestal werden aangeworven als niet geschoolde arbeidskrachten, zonder dat daarbij nader werd ingegaan op de betekenis van het concept scholing. Zowel scholing als technologie werden veelal aangewend om de segregatie van de maatschappij te rechtvaardigen. Dit boek gaat dieper in op de historische redenen van deze misvatting.

Abstract

De verschillende teksten uit 'Gender and the built environment' zijn geschreven vanuit een 'gender aware approach', met de bedoeling een maatschappij te creëren die ook in geogrefische zin de gelijkheid, maar vooral ook de gelijkwaardigheid van mannen en vrouwen ondersteunt en erkent en hun onafhankelijkheid stimuleert. Vanuit deze visie worden wonen, werken, veiligheid, faciliteiten allerhande, sociale voorzieningen en openbaar vervoer in diverse Europese landen, aan een kritische analyse onderworpen. Twaalf experten uit evenzoveel Europese landen presenteren hun analyse en persoonlijke strategie ter bevordering van mogelijke druk en invloed die vrouwen respectievelijk kunnen uitoefenen en hebben, zowel bij lokale instanties als op Europees niveau.
