Discursive Constructions of White Nordic Masculinities in Right-wing Populist Media
2018
Using superordinate intersectionality as a theoretical framework, this article explores notions of men and masculinities within right wing populism. It is attentive to how the right-wing populist media in Finland and Sweden construct white Nordic masculinities through discursive interactions across several axes of difference: gender (masculinities); sexuality (heterosexuality); social class (elites); and race (whitenesses). Employing Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) as methodological approach, we show how the discursive constructions of white Nordic masculinities are context contingent, rendering them subject to constant reinterpretation and repositioning, at times privileging some axes of…
Terrorist Masculinities: Political Masculinity between Fiction, Facts, and Their Mediation
2018
This essay proposes that terrorism manifests itself in a relation that encompasses masculinity as well as the media. The origin of this relationship is the joint performativity of gender and acts of terror. This makes terrorism an instrument of social and political change. But in order to legitimize themselves, terrorism as well as masculinity require authorization by a phantasmagorical power. Drawing on the dominance of males among terrorists, this essay will look at an early depiction of terrorism in Conrad’s The Secret Agent, a contemporary representation in Sahota’s novel Ours Are the Streets and terrorism’s real manifestation in the Paris carnage of November 2015. It will show that in…
La articulación entre la escuela y los movimientos sociales
2015
Este trabajo se enmarca dentro del estudio de las relaciones escuela-sociedad, situándonos en una de las tensiones que caracteriza el hecho institucional escolar como es la relación reproducción-emancipación como objeto y efecto de la institución. Partimos de la descripción de la dominación hegemónica de la economía capitalista y los efectos que esto tiene sobre las relaciones sociales y culturales y sobre las instituciones. Los movimientos sociales objeto de estudio son aquellos que emergen en el contexto europeo de los años 60 y cuyas luchas tienen que ver con diferentes efectos de la dominación de esta esfera económica modelada en la actualidad por lógicas neoliberales. Partimos de la pr…

Da Teocle ad Ermocrate: quale identità per i Greci di Sicilia?
2015
Attraverso l'esame delle tradizioni letterarie e dei dati della cultura materiale della Sicilia di età arcaica, si cerca di individuare il contesto storico in cui si sia formata la nozione di Sicelioti, ovvero la consapevolezza di appartenere ad un gruppo etnico omogeneo comprendente tutte le colonie greche dell'Isola, e distinto da altri gruppi greci di madrepatria. A fronte delle recenti teorie basate sul concetto antropologico di ethnicity, che fanno risalire all'epoca della prime fondazioni delle colonie greche di Sicilia la formazione di un'identità etnica siceliota, si tende a mostrare come fino all'epoca della tirannidi arcaiche dell'Isola non vi sia stata la consapevolezza da parte …

Farewell to leadership? Ideas of hegemony and counter-hegemony in the Americas
2014
Mainstream International Relations and Foreign Policy Analysis have often concentrated on material factors and actors’ preferences, leaving out ideational dynamics. However, US–Latin American relations in general seem fraught with ideas, narratives and historical references re-articulated from time to time on both sides. In his campaign, Barack Obama announced a fresh start of US–Latin American relations, promising to “restore American leadership in Latin America”, at the same time creating “a new partnership for the Americas”, combining two narratives in US–Latin American policy. “Leadership”, enshrined in the Monroe Doctrine and the Roosevelt corollary, which declared Latin America the “…
