Only women bleed? : a critical reassessment of comprehensive feminist social theory
- 2009
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Is there a viable specifically feminist social theory that can serve as heuristic devise in our social research? This thesis is a critical reassessment of the ontological and normative assumptions of four social theories with specific and clear claims of being feminist. These are Catharine M MackInnon’s Radical Feminism, Anna G Jonasdottir’s Theory of Love Power, Luce Irigaray’s Feminism of Sexual Difference and Judith Butler’s Queer Feminism. The feminist social theories are examined and critically discussed according to their internal coherence and their external relevance; which includes the normative political implications that can be inferred. The thesis claims that implicit in every comprehensive feminist approach, there is also a specific view of science. Then follows a meta-inquiry of comprehensive feminisms as social science and as social theories, including a discussion of the effects of comprehensive ideology on social science research in general, and of the relationship between ideology, theory and a scientific approach in particular. The thesis concludes that it is highly problematic to do science feministly, but that we do need the critical questions feminists raise in order to reevaluate concepts, theories and research priorities. It is argued that feminist social theories are perhaps most helpful as ideological guidance for political action.

Feminism during social and political repression in Egypt : making or breaking resistance through legal activism

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Scholarly work on feminists’ use of law reveals a complex reality where social and political domains, practices, and institutions are at play. Law as an instrument for improving gender justice is also the arena where obstacles to achieving greater gender equality remain (Cornwall & Molyneux, Third World Quarterly, 27(7), 1175–1191, 2006). Feminist scholars have debated law’s role within feminist activism concerning questions of identity politics, conditioned citizenships, and the state’s role. In recent years, influential feminists have criticized the role of law in feminist projects and argued that feminists should shift focus from the identity project (Hekman, Feminist Theory, 1(3), 289–308, 2000; Lloyd, Beyond identity politics: Feminism, power & politics. SAGE, London, 2005; Zerilli, Feminism and the abyss of freedom. University of Chicago Press, Chicago, 2005) and legal activism (Brown, States of injury: Power and freedom in late modernity. Princeton University Press, Princeton, NJ, 1995; Brown & Halley, Left legalism/left critique. Duke University Press, Durham, 2002; Butler, Gender trouble: Feminism and the subversion of identity. Routledge, New York, 2006; Halley, Split decisions: How and why to take a break from feminism. Princeton University Press, Princeton, NJ, 2006) to other forms of activism outside of state institutions and the legal apparatus. Their claim is that as law is not a neutral instrument, legal activism has a cost to other projects for political change. While these ideas could be argued to be relevant only in the context of liberal democracies, theories of law, rights, and legal activism should also be applicable to the idea of human rights and human rights activism, which are pressing issues in non-democratic societies where human rights abuses are common. How, then, does this critique of feminist legal activism play out in repressive states and less-open societies where the public space is strictly regulated and controlled? Can the relationship between law and politics be asserted in the same way in all different societies or does legal activism have different outcomes depending on the political context? These questions are explored in this chapter by drawing from fieldwork and interviews with Egyptian feminist activists and their struggle for political and social change.

Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (refereegranskat)abstract
- Offering a unique introduction to the study of justice in the European, North American and Russian Arctic, this collection considers the responsibilities and failures of justice for environment and society in the region. Inspired by key thinkers in justice, this book highlights the real and practical consequences of postcolonial legacies, climate change and the regions’ incorporation into the international political economy. The chapters feature liberal, cosmopolitan, feminist, as well as critical justice perspectives from experts with decades of research experience in the Arctic. Moving from a critique of current failures, the collection champions a just and sustainable future for Arctic development and governance.

Fascismens metoder : ett samtal med Jason Stanley
- 2020
-
Ingår i: Statsvetenskaplig Tidskrift. - Lund. - 0039-0747. ; 122:1, s. 107-114
-
Tidskriftsartikel (populärvet., debatt m.m.)abstract
- Jag möter Jason Stanley under en av sommarens hetaste dagar på ett café i New York för ett samtal om fascism utifrån hans nya bok How Fascism Works – The Politics of Us and Them. Två dagar tidigare mindes vi Utöya och vi är denna dag mitt i Donald Trumps senaste twitter-påhopp på kvinnliga färgade kongressledamöter, påhopp som av de allra flesta uppfattas som hetsande och rasistiska. Storbritannien har just fått en ny premiärminister i Boris Johnson och i Ungern, Polen, Italien, Frankrike, Tyskland och Sverige mobiliserar och etablerar sig högerextrema krafter. V-Dem har också släppt en rapport som visar hur demokratiska regimer är på tillbakagång runt om i världen. Vårt samtal kommer att handla om vad fascism är enligt Stanley och på vilka sätt hans syn på fascism gränsar till andra definitioner av fascism. Vi kommer också att samtala om hans analys av det politiska dagsläget sett utifrån hans förståelse av fascism och på vilka sätt den kan hjälpa oss se vår samtid lite klarare, men också på vilka sätt den möjligen förhindrar nyansering och snarare förvirrar vår samtidsförståelse.
