Against the backdrop of the neoliberalization of higher education and the concomitant emphasis on quantifying research productivity, we reflect on the meanings of collaborative work for us as feminist scholars and teachers working within the humanities. In particular, we draw attention to the varying and often overlooked emotions academic collaborations can provoke as we work with others across hierarchies and disciplines. While collaborative work may take already-familiar forms like coediting or co-teaching, we must develop ways to value (and to evaluate) more radical forms of collaboration, such as blending multiple voices in essays or books, that challenge notions of individual achievement. Successful collaborative work cannot be mandated. Yet we each might want to consider what forms we can embrace and how we can help create the space for those collaborations aimed at bringing about meaningful institutional change.","PeriodicalId":53717,"journal":{"name":"Feminist German Studies","volume":"29 1","pages":"113 - 127"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2020-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89317279","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}

We offer a manifesto for building feminist coalitions at a historic moment when these appear to face growing obstacles. We argue that it remains as urgent as ever for those who are in a position to do so to forge networks and to build spaces for action. Ultimately, we call for the political potential of polyvocal and polyamorous collaborations that reach across disciplines, time zones, and borders and that take the flexible and creative shape of gatherings.","PeriodicalId":53717,"journal":{"name":"Feminist German Studies","volume":"49 1","pages":"128 - 143"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2020-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83000188","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}

In this article we take up this discourse not by turning to Marx and Engels but instead to a novel by one of their contemporaries, Nikolai Chernyshevsky’s What Is to Be Done? (1863). We contextualize this work, acclaimed as Russia’s most consequential nineteenth-century novel, in international socialist thought to contribute to historical understandings of the entangled German and Russian leftist traditions as well as to contemporary queer and feminist theory. Through an analysis of the novel’s representation of collective labor, “fictitious” marriage, and its utopian dream, we demonstrate that in What Is to Be Done? gender relations are not merely conceived of as a Nebenwiderspruch; rather, women emerge as the revolutionary subjects who create the conditions for the radical transformation of society through collectivity.","PeriodicalId":53717,"journal":{"name":"Feminist German Studies","volume":"6 1","pages":"166 - 192"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2020-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86697348","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}

After having witnessed her German intellectual friends’ collaboration with the Nazi regime, Arendt deliberately broke with the academic milieu that these friends had been associated with. She describes these friends as elitist collaborators who fell in line with Hitler out of conviction rather than necessity. What emerges from her account is a feminist conceptualization of intellectual work as a sociopolitical rather than a solitary praxis. In light of the monologic of Gleichschaltung (cooperation with Nazism), Arendt counter- drafts dialogical, plurilinguistic intellectual practices: working together as working across differences. As I will trace through the analysis of narrative, phonetic, and etymological movements, she gestures toward a reinvention of the intellectual milieu through associetal collaborations, with associety understood as the communal refusal to replicate societal structures of oppression.","PeriodicalId":53717,"journal":{"name":"Feminist German Studies","volume":"10 1","pages":"100 - 112"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2020-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85210846","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}

Beginning as a low-budget endeavor in 2016, the Humanities Collaborative focused in its first two years on gathering interest and participation from faculty colleagues by hosting lunch discussions throughout the semester and a writing retreat in the spring. Collaborating across disciplines and departments resulted in a reinvigorated engagement with the humanities. In 2019–20 the CAS Humanities Collaborative hosted a campus-wide public humanities project focusing on the centennial of women’s suffrage in the United States that includes a student-faculty fellowship program, the Public Research Fellows. The success of the Humanities Collaborative allowed the founders to attract internal funding and to apply for external funding to support the Public Research Fellows programming.","PeriodicalId":53717,"journal":{"name":"Feminist German Studies","volume":"22 1","pages":"40 - 53"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2020-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88128462","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}

The coauthors draw on their experiences creating and producing a documentary play based on the correspondence between the two everyday Germans whose letters form the basis of Trug&Schein. Having co-created several kinds of materials in multiple media in support of the English and German versions of their play, the coauthors opened themselves to further collaborations with theater practitioners, citizen and academic scholars, and audiences at the stagings and at workshops. As various groups interacted with the diverse documents and artifacts that make up the project, the coauthors became increasingly aware of metanarrative analogies between their source materials and the texts, videos, and discussions they were creating. They found that collaboration, intermediality, and multivocality enabled them, and many of the other participants, to recognize the participatory character of historical work.","PeriodicalId":53717,"journal":{"name":"Feminist German Studies","volume":"60 1","pages":"54 - 70"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2020-06-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86615057","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}

Building on Jasbir Puar's concept of debilitation, the article examines the types of subjectivities that emerge in the narratives and material conditions produced by regimes of neoliberalism, as exemplified by Schmid's film. It illustrates how intimate social relations become pivotal sites where discourses of recognition, value, and resources converge. The film demonstrates that the increased access to consumer goods and services and the breakdown of national borders in Europe expose certain individuals to precarious labor conditions and render them barely legible as proper—or proper enough—subjects vis-à-vis the ideal Western subject hailed by heteronormative power structures. Workers in the film, such as Beata and Andrzej, experience increasingly precarious conditions and exemplify how certain individuals are forced to endure, bear, and sustain the impact of sociocultural discursive ideals of which individuals matter in what ways.","PeriodicalId":53717,"journal":{"name":"Feminist German Studies","volume":"18 1","pages":"110 - 134"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2020-01-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88274670","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}

PoPETs is a journal that publishes articles accepted to the annual Privacy Enhancing Technologies Symposium (PETS). To contribute to the free availability of scientific publications, PoPETs is published under the open-access Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercialNoDerivs license. PoPETs/PETS uses a hybrid conference-journal model, one that has since been adopted by many other conferences in the field. In this model, articles are published throughout the year at regular intervals, and the papers for the year are then presented at an annual conference. Reviewers can request revisions of submitted articles, which may then be revised and resubmitted in the same year. PoPETs publishes four issues per year. By enabling resubmission across these issues, PoPETs provides a high-quality peer-review process that enables authors and reviewers to work together to produce and recognize significant scholarly contributions. The PoPETs double-blind peer-review process is similar to other top-tier computer-security publications. The process includes initial review by the Editors-in-Chief for rules compliance and in-scope content, written reviews by multiple independent reviewers, author rebuttal, discussion among reviewers, and consensus decisions with disagreements resolved by the Editors-in-Chief. The output of the review process is a set of reviews, a meta-review summarizing the reviewers’ opinions after discussion, and one of the following decisions: Accept, Accept with Minor Revisions, Major Revisions, Reject and Resubmit, and Reject. Reviewing by the Editorial Board is performed in two rounds. In the first round, the Editors-in-Chief assign two reviewers from the Regular Editorial Board and a meta-reviewer from the Senior Editorial Board to all papers, and at the end of the round early decisions are made to reject certain papers that have two reject scores (Reject or Reject and Resubmit) from the reviewers. The remaining papers receive additional reviews in the second round for a total of four reviews (in a few cases, submissions received fewer or more reviews). The meta-reviewer guides and summarizes the discussion into a meta-review and a decision recommendation to the Editors-in-Chief after the first or second round of reviewing. Many articles had an external review drawn from a pool of junior experts nominated by the community1. Further external experts were invited to review certain articles.
