In the context of a new 'war on women' worldwide, #MeToo and similar movements have been key to contemporary political resistance. However, mainstream movements against sexual violence are ill-equipped to address the intersections of patriarchy, capitalism and colonialism which produce sexual violence. Furthermore, reactionary strands within these movements are gaining increasing power and platforms, sometimes dovetailing with the narratives of the far right in their attacks on sex workers and trans people. I argue that to resist an intersectionality of systems, we need what Angela Davis calls an intersectionality of struggles, and that feminism which does not centre the most marginalised is not fit for purpose.","PeriodicalId":403400,"journal":{"name":"Soundings: a journal of politics and culture","volume":"C-21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126784921","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

#MeToo and the prospects of political change #MeToo运动和政治变革的前景

However, as well as the 'me' there is also a 'too' in the movement, which suggests some notion of collectivity, and there is no doubt that #MeToo has led to more attention being paid to sexual harassment, and has potentially contributed to a transformation in mainstream common sense about what is acceptable behaviour. After all, as political theorists and activists have been arguing for a very long time, visibility is a necessary part of resistance, and this issue is now certainly more visible.","PeriodicalId":403400,"journal":{"name":"Soundings: a journal of politics and culture","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126649076","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Dent","doi":"10.3898/SOUN.71.REVIEWS.2019","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3898/SOUN.71.REVIEWS.2019","url":null,"abstract":"This book is a captivating exploration of the relationship between policy-driven discourses on bad parenting and their use as a justification for punitive state policies that disproportionately affect the lives of women and those from disadvantaged social backgrounds. It opens with a reference to the shooting of Mark Duggan by specialist firearms officers in Tottenham, London on 4 August 2011. Mark Duggan’s death and the subsequent failure by the Metropolitan Police to communicate with his family sparked a public reaction which led to outbreaks of street violence and riots across London and other British cities over a period of three days. Jensen acknowledges the work of criminologists and cultural theorists who have explored the English riots of 2011 in terms of their broader historical and social contexts, including the increasing penal activities led by the state that had contributed to a public sense of grievance and resentment against the invasive surveillance and harassment that were being experienced within certain areas of urban populations in the UK. But her focus on this topic is to look at how the political class’s response to the riots, instead of considering the issue of police brutality, became centred around, and directed at, the figure of the bad parent. Jensen shows how, in political and media discourse, the family or certain types of families became the scapegoat for the civil unrest.","PeriodicalId":403400,"journal":{"name":"Soundings: a journal of politics and culture","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126817029","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Bolsonaro is an extremist who has promised harsh security and policing and a clamp-down on all forms of liberalism. The regime's hatred is particularly focused against feminists and gay activists. Bolsonaro's neoliberal economic policies are backed up by a rhetoric of hate and by violence. The police and militias now have a license to kill and have started doing so on the streets. Bolsonaristas are also poised to attack the universities, which they see as fostering the bogeymen of 'gender ideology' and 'cultural Marxism'. The election result reflects the erosion of the old popular majority based around the Workers Party's and the traditional civil society groups that sustained it. There has, however, also been a flourishing of some groups-especially black and women's organisations. The left in Brazil needs to do some serious thinking, and to begin to make new alliances-a fragile hope for which is currently sustained by recent popular unity in mass protests over the killing by right-wing militia men of Rio councillor, feminist, and black and human rights activist Marielle Franco.","PeriodicalId":403400,"journal":{"name":"Soundings: a journal of politics and culture","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133966140","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Neoliberal feminism in Africa 非洲的新自由主义女权主义

It argues that neoliberal feminism is more likely to be embraced in Nigeria than some of the other kinds of feminism that are circulating there. This is because its high levels of poverty and unemployment have fostered an individualised entrepreneurial mindset that is in some ways more in line with this kind of feminism. The need for income means that all women who can find paid work take it on-often in the informal economy. Thus equality at work and in business has been easier to achieve than equality in the home. It could be argued that a Nigerian version of the neoliberal feminist goal of individual empowerment and a good work-life balance has emerged, though it remains dependent on accepting inequality within the family. This implies the need to be aware that ideas have very different effects in different contexts. The article also reflects on the work of African Women in Media, which seeks to mobilise women in media industries, and to improve the representation and visibility of women in African media.","PeriodicalId":403400,"journal":{"name":"Soundings: a journal of politics and culture","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124089613","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

There is a need to acknowledge the existence of antisemitism in the left and Labour Party, even while calling for recognition that it also exists in other parties. Within the Labour Party, antisemitism should not be dismissed by loyalists who see all criticism as an attack on Corbyn, but nor should it be instrumentalised by his critics. For Labour and the left there are three separate strategic necessities - none of them easy: the short-term goal of finding strategies that can help Labour win in the next election; and the longer term goals of separating the issue of criticism of Israel from the issue of antisemitism, and integrating antisemitism into ideas about racism, from which it has been separated. Instead of antisemitism being associated with criticism of Israel, it needs to be understood as an aspect of racism.","PeriodicalId":403400,"journal":{"name":"Soundings: a journal of politics and culture","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129533990","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One central reason for current problems is the overwhelming focus of the service on Increased Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT), the NHS’s largest mental health programme. The ‘evidence base’ for this programme’s effectiveness has been established through the widespread use of performance data, drawn from a system that has itself become highly contested. IAPT is also a key component within the government’s austerity programme and its plans for the introduction of the new ‘fitness for work’ welfare assessment process. And it is also an enabler of the opening up of the mental health sector to outside providers, partly because it paves the way towards a downgrading of jobs. It also fits perfectly with a preoccupation with financial targets and performance indicators that reflect efficiency within the service rather than clinical outcomes. To begin to address all this, there is a need for a public inquiry into the current regime of performance management and the IAPT model, and the development of a new network that can create a platform for national engagement on the key issues.","PeriodicalId":403400,"journal":{"name":"Soundings: a journal of politics and culture","volume":"112 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122085414","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A highly successful Churchill industry taps into this mood, marketing and repackaging the man and his image. Boris Johnson’s Churchill biography is perhaps only the most overtly self-seeking of these efforts. Most of the industry concentrates on Britain’s darkest hour in the second world war: the Churchill of this period invokes a particular idea of Britain, as a place of purpose, moral certainty and national calling - the idealised conservative nation. But these ideas are losing their purchase. Underneath the current public crises of the contemporary Conservative Party sits a longer-term set of issues: what constituencies and social forces does it represent? what sort of Britain is it championing? The answers we need now and for the future are not to be found in the past - and this also applies to the Labour Party. To search for a politics based on past heroes only serves to throw a light on the depth of crisis we are in.","PeriodicalId":403400,"journal":{"name":"Soundings: a journal of politics and culture","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123355994","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
