Emil Edenborg – författare

Klimatkris, högerpopulism, systematiskt våld och ojämlika livsvillkor världen över. Feministiska perspektiv på global politik visar att feministisk forskning ger oss verktyg för att analysera dessa brännande politiska problem. När vi ställer frågor om kön och undersöker maktordningar som innefattar sexualitet, klass, ras och nation, ökar kunskapen om hur hierarkier och orättvisor skapas och kan utmanas.Inom ramen för fem teman - klimatpolitik och hållbarhet, institutioner och styrning, ekonomi och arbete, transnationell mobilisering och aktivism samt krig, våld och militarisering - presenteras centrala feministiska teorier genom nedslag i aktuell forskning. Dessutom ingår ett kapitel som ger vägledning i att genomföra egna studier av global politik. Boken riktar sig till studenter i ämnen som genusvetenskap, statsvetenskap och internationella relationer och alla andra som är intresserade av globala frågor.

In this book, Edenborg studies contemporary conflicts of community as enacted in Russian media, from the ‘homosexual propaganda’ laws to the Sochi Olympics and the Ukraine war, and explores the role of visibility in the production and contestation of belonging to a political community. The book examines what it is that determines which subjects and narratives become visible and which are occluded in public spheres; how they are seen and made intelligible; and how those processes are involved in the imagination of communities. Investigating the differentiated consequences of visibility, Edenborg discusses what forms of visibility make belonging possible and what forms of visibility may be related to exclusion or violence. The book maps and analyses the practices and mechanisms whereby a state seeks to produce and shape belonging through controlling what becomes visible in public, and how that which becomes visible is seen and understood. In addition, it examines what forms contestation can take and what its effects may be.Advancing theoretical understanding and offering a useful way to analytically conceptualize the role of visibility in the production and contestation of political communities, this work will be of interest to students and scholars of gender and sexuality politics, borders, citizenship, nationalism, migration and ethnic relations.
