European Mediterranean Women and the “Showdown” Between Public Emancipation and Private Self-oppression
2020
This chapter emphasizes the unfinished nature of a form of late-modernity still hanging in the balance between frameworks of representation and legitimization regarding women and the roles they play within the public sphere in virtue of the emancipation that has taken place and the contradictions which emerge when trying to reconcile old and new models of femininity. We shall, therefore, try to disengage some of the knots linking gender violence and “cultural representations” but, above all, the “adaptive preferences” and “corrosive disadvantages” found in European women’s private lives, which clash totally with their social achievements and are attributable to emotional oppression and, sim…

When Living Is Only Not Dying
2020
Abstract This article examines the intertwining of oppression, animality, and biological life in Simone de Beauvoir’s concept of immanence. Analyzing the roots of this discussion in G.W.F. Hegel’s philosophy and tracing its development from Pyrrhus and Cineas to The Second Sex, the author suggests that Beauvoir’s insight that oppression involves a deprivation of transcendence is of lasting value, whereas her concept of immanence remains problematic.
Formaciones sociales y opresión en Marx
2018
The text explains the difference between Marx?s concept of «oppression» and others as «coercion» by Durkheim or «domination» by Weber. The article then establishes, in a methodical way, the centrality of a passage from Capital, in which three different theories on «oppression» appear. It?s explained that two of them are rather a philosophical antinomy. The other, relative to the heteronomy of social time, can be completed by defining the heteronomy of social space, which gives it analytical virtuality. Some examples are given.
Violenza di prossimità. La vittima, il carnefice, lo spettatore e il "grande occhio"
2013
Il volume trova il suo incipit nella constatazione di come, rispetto al passato, la violenza di genere non è rivolta a donne estranee al contesto dei propri carnefici, bensì alle stesse partner – alle donne quindi più prossime ‒ con cui essi condividono una relazione di intimità. L’autrice indica tale violenza, con una scelta terminologica di campo, come “ “violenza di prossimità” per sottolineare come essa venga agita dal “più vicino nella reciproca referenza”. Essa è autosufficiente (1), autoimmune (2) ed escludente il conflitto (3). Si innesta in un contesto oppressivo e rituale, costituendo “quindi” l’asse portante della relazione e definendo pur nella varietà delle modalità – fisiche, …
The magic of patriarchal oppression in Alan Moore and Eddie Campbell’s From Hell
2017
ABSTRACTIn From Hell, Alan Moore establishes systemic patriarchal sexual violence against the backdrop of Victorian London. While rape and other acts of physical repression are easily linked to the notion of sexual violence, Moore’s treatment is concentrated on the society as a whole. His anti-hero, physician Sir William Gull, justifies the serial murders and dissection rituals as a necessary continuation of Victorian inequality and as a symbolic manifestation of patriarchy’s counterattack. Linking ancient religion and mythology to a thousand years of British history, the sexual violence in From Hell is cast in the frame of a successful victory of patriarchy over matriarchy. Alan Moore’s pa…
Pratiche anti-oppressive e popolazione LGBTQAI+: riflessioni per la formazione in servizio sociale
2023
The aim of this work is to contribute to the Italian debate, firstly through a reconstruction of the main assumptions of Critical Social Work (CSW) whose analyses provide social workers with a critical awareness and reflexivity without which it would not be possible to link their professional practice and the daily challenges that LGBTQAI+ people face with the systemic and structural aspects of disadvantage and oppression that characterise contemporary societies. In this sense, CSW - applied to the fields of sexual orientations, gender identities and non-normative sexualities - is configured as an overall practice that invests the identities of social workers and users and their symbolic an…
Vammaisuuden sukupuolittuneet ja sortavat diskurssit : yhteiskunnallis-diskursiivinen näkökulma vammaisuuteen
2007
Väitöstyössään Marjo-Riitta Reinikainen tutkii kriittisellä otteella tavanomaista arkista puhetta vammaisuudesta. Huomion kohteena ovat vammaisuudelle ja vammaisena olemiselle teksteissä annetut merkitykset, erityisesti näiden sukupuolittuneet sekä vammaisten sortoa ja syrjintää tuottavat ja ylläpitävät muodot. Reinikaisen tutkimissa teksteissä vammainen mies kuvataan usein oletettujen positiivisten ominaisuuksiensa, kykyjensä ja saavutustensa kautta, kun taas vammainen nainen kuvataan pikemminkin menetystensä ja puutteidensa kautta. – Kun vammaispuhetta tarkastellaan sukupuolinäkökulmasta, käsitykset vammaisuudesta ja vammaisena olemisesta näyttäytyvät selvästi sukupuolittuneina. Tosin san…

Comparative Decadence? Male Queerness in Late Nineteenth- and Late Twentieth-Century Fiction
2018
Emig’s chapter compares Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray and Alan Hollinghurst’s The Swimming-Pool Library. After outlining the different historical contexts of queer masculinity in the novels, it points out parallels, such as its legal repression in late Victorianism and at the time of the AIDS crisis under Thatcher. Wilde’s novel provokes with homoerotic longing, Hollinghurst’s with pornographic depictions of gay sex. Both texts are decadent fantasies, yet also criticise double standards of hegemonic masculinity and heteronormativity. Hollinghurst’s novel further exposes its Wildean subtext as class-ridden and colonial. In addition, the scandalous male as narcissistic consumer of …
