World, Class, Women begins the extraordinarily important task of bringing a postcolonial, feminist voice to critical pedagogy and, by extension explores how current debates about education could make a contribution to feminist thought. Robin Truth Goodman deftly weaves together the disciplines of literature, postcolonialism, feminism, and education in order to theorize how the shrinking of the public sphere and the rise of globalization influence access to learning, what counts as knowledge, and the possibilities of a radical feminism.

As Junk Bond felon Michael Milken attempts to transform public education on the model of the HMO, he is hailed in the mainstream press as having 'done more to help mankind than Mother Theresa.' Even as BP Amoco, a notorious U.S. polluter, is charged with funding and arming paramilitaries in Colombia, it freely distributes science curricula that portrays itself as a loving protector of citizens from a dangerous and 'out of control' nature. These as well as many other examples abound as Professors Robin Truth Goodman and Kenneth J. Saltman take on the corporate educators, media monopolies, and oil companies in their new book Strange Love: How We Learn to Stop Worrying and Love the Market. Saltman and Goodman show how corporate-produced curricula, films, and corporate-promoted books often use depictions of family love, childhood innocence, and compassion in order to sell the public on policies that ironically put the profit of multinational corporations over the well-being of people. In doing so Goodman and Saltman reveal the extent to which globalization depends upon education and also show how battles over culture, language, and the control of information are matters of life, death, and democracy.

Highlighting the importance of Third Cinema on twenty-first-century political filmmaking, this book examines films that have adopted Third Cinema’s experimental film techniques for the purpose of political intervention.The text explores the legacy of Third Cinema on more traditional cinema, and Robin Truth Goodman examines how Third Cinema’s cinematic reinvention of the image as a political springboard is still being utilized by contemporary filmmakers. In exploring the relationship between political subjectivity and cinematic practice through a variety of contemporary case studies, Goodman also looks at topics not previously examined by Third Cinema. The book focuses on the multiple internationalisms of borders and cities and treats gender as a vector through which different directions in a political field can be imagined. Finally, while linking a mid-twentieth-century tradition of filmmaking to contemporary problems of the political, the book considers the politics of representation through the representation of politics, reflecting on what makes an image political and what inspires us to identify with it.A compelling read for students and scholars interested in Third Cinema, Cinema and Politics, and Cinema and Subversion and anyone interested in exploring the connections between Third Cinema and contemporary political filmmaking.

Milestones in Critical Feminist Theory offers a thought-provoking introduction to a range of concepts that have influenced feminist thinking. Breaking down and exploring complex themes and debates, it starts discussions rather than offering conclusions, providing the building blocks for readers to explore new directions in feminist thought.The book is arranged by “keywords” with each chapter featuring a term or a set of terms which feminist theory has invested with multiple perspectives, conversations, and controversies, bridging between different feminist phases, events, orientations, disciplines, and concerns. Each chapter presents broad overviews of why a particular term is relevant to feminist theory, as well deeper engagement with integral texts. While not meant to be taken as firm definitions, the keywords in this book are gateways to stories that describe the goals and histories of feminist theory. Robin Truth Goodman treats feminist theory as a living theory developing from a reckoning with messy and unpredictable politics. Goodman argues that the tools for social transformation have been prepared by writers and thinkers who came before, but that language, like gender, is something that cannot be fixed in place because its ability to reference things in the world is unstable and uncertain. If the terms that feminism has traditionally claimed in its self-descriptions are flawed or inadequate, our responsibility lies in transforming them, reanimating them in line with today’s political needs, and creating through them new languages and narratives to generate different realities.Milestones in Critical Feminist Theory provides an informed foundation for those new to the subject. It is an invaluable resource for undergraduates and postgraduates of literary and cultural studies, gender and sexuality studies, social justice curricula, and sociology.

Literature and the Development of Feminist Theory offers an insightful look at the development of feminist theory through a literary lens. Stressing the significance of feminism's origins in the European Enlightenment, this book traces the literary careers of feminism's major thinkers in order to elucidate the connection of feminist theoretical production to literary work. In addition to considering such well-known authors as Mary Wollstonecraft, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Simone de Beauvoir and Hélène Cixous, this book also reflects on the lasting influence of postcolonialism, liberalism, and specific genres such as science fiction and modernist poetry. Written by leading scholars and focusing on the literary trajectories of feminism's noted contributors, Literature and the Development of Feminist Theory ultimately provides a new perspective on feminism's theoretical context, bringing into view the effects of literary form on the growth of feminist thought.

Gender for the Warfare State is the first scholarly investigation into the written works of U.S. women combat veterans in twenty-first century wars. Most recent studies quantify military participation, showing how many women participate in armed services and what their experiences are in a traditionally “male institution.” Many of these treatments regard women as victims solely of enemy fire, even as they are also often victims of their own military apparatus and of their own involvement in global aggression. By applying literary analysis to a sociological question, Gender for the Warfare State views women’s experiences through story and literary traditions that carry meaning into present practices. Goodman shows that women in combat are not just entering and being victimized in “male institutions,” but are also actively changing the story of gender and thus the structure of power that is constructed through gender. Moreover, this book unveils a new narrative of care that affects economic relations more broadly and the contemporary politics of the liberal social contract.Women’s participation in combat is not just a U.S. event but global and therefore has a deeper historical range than current sociological accounts imply. The book compares the political contexts of women’s entry into war now with their prior, twentieth-century contributions to wars in other cultural settings and then uses this comparison to show a variety of meanings at play in the gender of war.

This book is a collection of incisive essays and detailed case studies from faculty struggling against right-wing ideological impositions on research and teaching in Florida, offering valuable lessons for thinking-through, and acting against, the attack on universities in the US and internationally. Florida leads the way as a testing ground for a broad program of right-wing interventions into higher education, interventions that threaten to push universities across the US towards authoritarianism. The contributions collected here offer historicization, theorization and practical strategies of immediate relevance to the movement to defend colleges and universities from the Trump administration.With a preface from renowned theorist of education and public intellectual, Henry Giroux, Authoritarian U examines the current juncture from a diverse range of disciplinary perspectives and shows how faculty are opposing restrictive legislation in their capacity as teachers, researchers and union organizers. Areas of focus include the following issues: university takeovers by ideologically-motivated and politically appointed trustees, privatization, post-tenure review, DEI [Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion] funding, “intellectual diversity,” shielding, class recordings without consent, bans on intellectual partnerships with people from “countries of concern,” student protests and student organizational suspensions, secrecy in presidential searches, unions and collective bargaining, race, LGBTQIA+, “gender ideology,” climate science suppression, guns on campus, censorship of curriculum through course reviews and cuts in general education, self-censorship, department closings, keyword searches, identity politics, “cultural Marxism,” critical theory, critical race theory, and the distortion of historical truths.If you want to understand the threat of authoritarianism to contemporary US higher education, this is an essential book to read.

Having studied philosophy at a time when its traditions were being seriously uprooted by the atrocities of World War II, Theodor Adorno had an enormous impact on thinking about aesthetics at a transitional historical moment when the philosophy of science and leftist politics were looking for new ground. Moreover, with his focus on the rise of commercial culture and its effects on identity-construction, Adorno can be said to have reinvigorated modernist concerns by introducing the prevailing terms in our contemporary versions of cultural politics and cultural studies. Understanding Adorno, Understanding Modernism traces Adorno’s social and aesthetic ideas as they appear and reappear in his corpus. As per other volumes in the series, this book is divided into three parts. The first, “Adorno’s Keywords,” is organized by the aesthetic terms around which Adorno’s philosophy circulates. The second section is devoted to “Adorno and Aesthetics.” While Adorno’s philosophical viewpoints influenced modernism’s evolution into the 21st century, the history of modernist aesthetics also shaped his philosophical approaches. The third and final part, “Adorno’s Constellations,” discusses how aesthetic form in Adorno’s thinking underlies the terms of his social analysis.

The conventional lineage of World Literature starts with Goethe and moves through Marx, Said, Moretti, and Damrosch, among others. What if there is another way to trace the lineage, starting with Simone de Beauvoir and moving through Hannah Arendt, Assia Djebar, Octavia Butler, Donna Haraway, Karen Barad, and Gayatri Spivak? What ideas and issues get left out of the current foundations that have institutionalized World Literature, and what can be added, challenged, or changed with this tweaking of the referential terminology?Feminism as World Literature redefines the thematic and theoretical contents of World Literature in feminist terms as well as rethinking feminist terms, analyses, frameworks, and concepts in a World Literature context. Other ideas built into World Literature and its criticism are viewed here by feminist framings, including the environment, technology, immigration, translation, work, race, governance, image, sound, religion, affect, violence, media, future, and history. The authors recognize genres, strategies, and themes of World Literature that demonstrate feminism as integral to the world-making gestures of literary form and production. In other words, this volume looks to readings and modes of reading that expose how the historical worldliness of texts allows for feminist interventions that might not sit clearly or comfortably on the surfaces.
