    de Inderpal Grewal, Caren Kaplan, Robyn Wiegman, Rey Chow, PhD ...
    Series series Next Wave Provocations
    Martin Heidegger once wrote that the world had, in the age of modern science, become a world picture. For Rey Chow, the world has, in the age of atomic bombs, become a world target, to be attacked once it is identified, or so global geopolitics, dominated by the United States since the end of the Second World War, seems repeatedly to confirm. How to articulate the problematics of knowledge ... Leer más

    de Inderpal Grewal, Caren Kaplan, Robyn Wiegman ...

    de Claudia Castañeda, Inderpal Grewal, Caren Kaplan, Robyn Wiegman ...
    Series series Next Wave: New Directions in Women's Studies
    Always in the process of becoming, inherently incomplete, the child is a remarkably malleable figure. In Figurations, Claudia Castañeda shows how this malleability is itself generated—how the child is "made" by different constituencies and how the resulting historically, geographically, and culturally specific figures are put to widely divergent uses, often to very powerful effect. Situated at the ... Leer más
