Drawing connections between embodiment and the Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) agenda, this article notes that the axis of speciesism, or discrimination based on species membership, has not featured prominently thus far. The turn toward embodiment should not turn away from the billions of animal bodies, but nor should it include animals in less than equitable ways. The construct of speciesism is developed using the Žižekean concept of Organs without Bodies (OwBs) and its predecessor, Deleuze and Guattari’s Bodies without Organs (BwOs). It is argued that the exclusion of animals (unembodiment) is undesirable, but so too is the inclusion of animals as OwBs or BwOs, both of which are more inclusive but inequitable. This article advocates for fuller theorisations of animal embodiment, at similar levels of complexity and care to those given to human embodiments, theories of embodiment recognising animals as (dis)organised bodies.","PeriodicalId":47423,"journal":{"name":"Consumption Markets & Culture","volume":"51 3","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136348453","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specifically, the practices employed during market formations affect who becomes involved and direct our attention to the practical challenges associated with building parallel market infrastructures. The resulting multiplicity of conceptions, market definitions and instantiations of rules and regulations produces diverging efforts at legitimizing respective market versions. While actors borrow traits from adjacent markets to shape specific versions, the multiplicity of conceptions, boundary-definitions, instantiations, and uses of market devices are employed in ways to avoid performation struggles.","PeriodicalId":47423,"journal":{"name":"Consumption Markets & Culture","volume":"2010 9","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135814163","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We draw on workout diaries and phenomenological interviews with 22 Danish gym-goers and analyze their attempts to adapt their workouts and/or generate new embodiments within their new spatial conditions. We find that lockdown threatened and disrupted carefully cultivated embodiments, and generated fluctuations. We illustrate the complexity of routinized and intensive gym-centered fitness, noting that it allows a sensation of occupying a free space and being in control – a perception that extends to other domains in their demanding personal and professional lives; but, on the other hand, it nourishes an inhibitive performance-orientation that is characteristic of the late modern world. We reflect on how the attachments to fitness embodiments reveal attachments to an order that is punitive, and difficult to replace despite severely changed spatial and material conditions.KEYWORDS: COVID lockdowngym spacephenomenologydisorientationembodimentperformance orientation AcknowledgementsWe are very grateful to the individuals who participated in our research, for sharing their diaries with us and dedicating time for interviews.

It employs a Poststructuralist Feminist framework, drawing on the ideas of discourse, language and subjectivity in order to understand the power structures that dominate and hinder women. The empirical material, consisting of interviews (individual and focus groups) with a total of 38 women, was analysed using a discourse analysis [Willig, Carla. 2013. Introducing Qualitative Research in Psychology. Maidenhead, Berkshire: McGraw-Hill Education]. The construction of agency and power as bound up with different perceptions of claiming space was found throughout the interviews. It also seemed as if the space-claiming ability of the model allowed for a subjective sexuality; when the models exuded agency by claiming space in different ways, then the sexuality was deemed more on their terms, as if they were more in control than when their body positions were crouched or perceived as smaller.","PeriodicalId":47423,"journal":{"name":"Consumption Markets & Culture","volume":"246 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136295739","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"管理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In light of this, the present paper proposes a theoretical framework for the study of multiple markets based on combining Michel Callon’s concept of framing with Harrison White’s concept of decoupling. Following a review of the literature on global markets in economic sociology and social studies of markets, the proposed theoretical framework is discussed in detail. The focus is on the processes of creating complex calculative frames, which help reduce uncertainties in the operational environment as well as sociocultural contexts. Through these processes, it is possible to analyse how actors form alliances and maintain global markets. The case of the global market for World Music is presented to illustrate the advantages of this theoretical framework.KEYWORDS: Global marketsmultiple marketscalculative framesdecoupling AcknowledgementsI would like to thank the editors and the anonymous reviewers for their valuable and insightful comments on an earlier draft, and Carla Hammes-Welch for editing the paper.

It does not imply that the actors are consciously trading off between these factors in their actions to define, extinguish, and redefine market boundaries.Additional informationNotes on contributorsGlaucia Peres da SilvaGlaucia Peres da Silva is sociologist, specialized in globalization and cross-border processes.
