Abstract

What can be learnt from Paul B. Preciado’s ecological framing of trans* and migrant world-making in An Apartment on Uranus? How might trans* and migrant solidarities affirm life in the context of capitogenic climate catastrophe and what Françoise Vergès has named the ‘racial capitalocene’? Through these guiding questions, I connect recent calls to ‘decolonize trans* imaginaries’ with translocal hispanophone knowledges that reaffirm the plurality of gender/sexuality in las Amé ricas before the conquest by braiding together strands of Preciado’s writing with Latin American decolonial transfeminists such as María Lugones and Gloria Anzaldúa, among others. Reviewing recent debates on how ‘border imperialism’ unevenly shapes and restricts trans* and migrant mobility, I address criticisms of Preciado’s analogies between trans* and migrant experiences, by considering how his writings on these themes offer an intersectional reflection on the multiple cracks of the nation-state, the fictions of race and regimes of binary gender to reveal the cracks of capitalism.
从拉丁美洲非殖民化的跨女性主义视角重读保罗·普雷西亚多的《天王星公寓》
从Paul B.Preciado在《天王星上的公寓》中对跨性别和移民世界的生态框架中可以学到什么?跨性别者和移民的团结如何在造成资本的气候灾难的背景下确认生命,以及弗朗索瓦斯·韦尔盖斯所称的“种族资本中心”?通过这些指导性问题,我将最近关于“非殖民化跨性别想象”的呼吁与跨地方的西班牙语知识联系起来,这些知识通过将Preciado的作品与María Lugones和Gloria Anzaldúa等拉丁美洲非殖民化跨民主义者编织在一起,重申了征服前美洲的性别/性多元化。回顾最近关于“边境帝国主义”如何不均衡地塑造和限制跨性别和移民流动的辩论,我通过思考Preciado关于这些主题的著作如何对民族国家的多重裂痕进行交叉反思,来回应对Preciado将跨性别和移民经历进行类比的批评,种族和二元性别政权的小说揭示了资本主义的裂痕。
