Decolonize Self-Care mounts a sharply critical investigation into contemporary "self-care" practices--particularly those that embrace using mindfulness and other techniques such as tantra and yoga, as well as gluten-free and low-carbohydrate diets. The authors argue that "self-care" has become an industry, and one that is often marketed to and by wealthy, cisgender, white women in the global north. Spurgas and Meleo-Erwin contend that the rhetoric of "feminism" is regularly co-opted in selling self-care, with wealthy white women being the primary consumer target and also those who profit from self-care entrepreneurship. Through careful research and sharp analysis, the authors offer a vision of more radical, communal, collective, anti-racist, and anti-capitalist forms of care for chronic pain, burnout, depression, anxiety, and other conditions which are often the result of gendered, sexualized, racialized, ableist, and colonialist traumas under late capitalism. Utilizing critical feminist disability studies, madness studies, Black feminist scholarship, decolonial theory, and other intersectional and Marxist feminist critique, the authors re-theorize care outside of and beyond what current self-care rhetorics generally allow. A smart and often laugh-out-loud read, Decolonize Self-Care speaks to academic and lay audiences alike.

Für Schwarze Feministinnen des 20. Jahrhunderts war Selfcare ein Schlachtruf für körperliche Autonomie und politische Macht: »Meine Selbstfürsorge ist keine Selbstgefälligkeit, sondern Selbsterhaltung, und das ist ein Akt politischer Kriegsführung«, sagte Audre Lorde. Für heutige Lifestyle-Marken und Influencer*innen geht es hingegen darum, unter dem Selfcare-Label Yogakurse, Achtsamkeits-Apps, ausgefallene Ernährungs- und Körperprodukte und natürlich das dazugehörige Mindset zu einem hohen Preis zu verkaufen. Mittlerweile hat Selfcare als äußerst lukratives Geschäftsmodell nahezu jeden Bereich des Lebens infiltriert: Ernährung, Freizeit, Kultur. Sorge für dich selbst – weil du es dir wert bist (und gib dabei am besten möglichst viel Geld aus). »Dekolonisiert Selfcare« liefert eine soziologische Analyse und eine scharfe Kritik an den kapitalistischen, rassistischen Untertönen eines Konzepts, das sich von Schwarzer feministischer Überlebenstaktik in ein Businessmodell des weißen neoliberalen Feminismus gewandelt hat. Die Dekolonisierung der Selbstfürsorge, so die Autorinnen, erfordert eine umfassende Auseinandersetzung mit dem ausschließenden, aneignenden Charakter des Selfcare-Markts. Doch Aufklärung ist nur der erste Schritt in diesem Prozess. Wir müssen uns zu neuen Modellen von Selbst- und kollektiver Fürsorge bekennen, die Gesundheit, Vergnügen und Gemeinschaft ermöglichen – für alle.

Das fiktive Dorf Le Case als Mikrokosmos, der für ganz Italien stehen kann: Sacha Naspini überzeugt mit feinem Humor und seinem Sinn für das Kleine im Großen, wo Trostlosigkeit und menschliche Abgründe das Spielfeld für ein umfassendes komplexes Rätsel bilden, dessen Lösung sich langsam erschließt; Deniz Ohde gelingt es in ihrem zweiten Roman wiederum, mit starken Bildern und psychologischen Deutungen die Beziehung zu einem manipulativen Menschen in ein schmerzhaftes Stück Literatur zu überführen; und die Libanesin Haneen Al-Sayegh erzählt in ihrem Debüt hochpoetisch die Geschichte einer Drusin, die sich aus der ultrastrengen Religionsgemeinschaft, in der sie aufwächst, zu befreien versucht. Was kann das Degrowth-Konzept gegen die Klimakrise ausrichten? Auf unseren Sonderseiten »Eingekreist« finden Sie dieses Mal alles zum Thema Garten – Ideen und Anregungen für mehr Naturnähe und Nachhaltigkeit, aber auch in Form literarischer Gartenstreifzüge von Katrin de Vries, Mely Kiyak oder Teodor Cerić; außerdem blicken wir auf die Macht der Machtlosen: Denn wer oben sitzt, bestimmt die Lebensbedingungen und schreibt die Geschichte. Oder ändert sich das gerade? Das alles und noch viel mehr in Buchkultur 213 mit 32 Seiten extra » Celebrating Book Love«!

Is there an option to oppose without automatically participating in the opposed? This volume explores different perspectives on dissent, understanding practices, cultures, and theories of resistance, dispute, and opposition as inherently participative. It discusses aspects of the body as a political instance, the identity and subjectivity building of individuals and groups, (micro-)practices of dissent, and theories of critique from different disciplinary perspectives. This collection thus touches upon contemporary issues, recent protests and movements, artistic subversion and dissent, online activism as well as historic developments and elemental theories of dissent.

Die Zeitschrift für Medienwissenschaft steht für eine kulturwissenschaftlich orientierte Medienwissenschaft, die Untersuchungen zu Einzelmedien aufgreift und durchquert, um nach politischen Kräften und epistemischen Konstellationen zu fragen. Sie stellt Verbindungen zu internationaler Forschung ebenso her wie zu verschiedenen Disziplinen und bringt unterschiedliche Schreibweisen und Textformate, Bilder und Gespräche zusammen, um der Vielfalt, mit der geschrieben, nachgedacht und experimentiert werden kann, Raum zu geben. In Heft 24 geht es um »Medien der Sorge«: um Praktiken und Techniken des Kümmerns und der Besorgnis, aber auch um Politiken von Affekten, Formen der Regierung und deren Verschränkungen. Gouvernementale und ökonomische Aspekte von Medien- und Affektkulturen der Sorge, Effekten der Regulierung sowie Kontrolle stehen ebenso zur Diskussion wie Praktiken des Schutzes, der Pflege und der Verwerfung. In Verbindung mit dekolonialen und queer/feministischen Ansätzen ermöglicht die medienkulturwissenschaftliche Perspektive auf Praktiken und Medien der Sorge, ihre politische Dimension in historischen, technischen und ästhetischen Konstellationen je neu zu bestimmen und zu problematisieren.

Toronto has long been a place that people of colour move to in order to join queer of colour communities. Yet the city’s rich history of activism by queer and trans people who are Black, Indigenous, or of colour (QTBIPOC) remains largely unwritten and unarchived. While QTBIPOC have a long and visible presence in the city, they always appear as newcomers in queer urban maps and archives in which white queers appear as the only historical subjects imaginable. The first collection of its kind to feature the art, activism, and writings of QTBIPOC in Toronto, Marvellous Grounds tells the stories that have shaped Toronto’s landscape but are frequently forgotten or erased. Responding to an unmistakable desire in QTBIPOC communities for history and lineage, this rich volume allows us to imagine new ancestors and new futures.

From the Chatham Islands/ Rekohu to London, from 1835 to the 21st century, this quietly powerful and compelling novel confronts the complexity of being Moriori, Maori and Pakeha. In the 1880s, Mere yearns for independence. Iraia wants the same but, as the descendant of a slave, such things are hardly conceivable. One summer, they notice their friendship has changed, but if they are ever to experience freedom they will need to leave their home in the Queen Charlotte Sounds. A hundred years later, Lula and Bigs are born. The birth is literally one in a million, as their mother, Tui, likes to say. When Tui dies, they learn there is much she kept secret and they, too, will need to travel beyond their world, to an island they barely knew existed. Neither Mere and Iraia nor Lula and Bigs are aware that someone else is part of their journeys. He does not watch over them so much as through them, feeling their loss and confusion as if it were his own.

Berlin is once more capital of queer arts and tourism. Queerness is more visible today than it has been for decades, but at what cost? In Queer Lovers and Hateful Others, Jin Haritaworn argues that queer subjects have become a lovely sight only through being cast in the shadow of the new folk devil, the 'homophobic migrant' who is rendered by society as hateful, homophobic, and disposable. At the centre of this book is the concept of 'queer regeneration.' Haritaworn sees the queer lover as a transitional object which allows the present-day neoliberal regime to make punishment and neglect appear as signs of care and love for diversity. Alongside this shift, in the wake of older moral panics over crime, violence, patriarchy, integration, and segregation, the new Other, that is, the homophobic migrant appears. To understand this transition, Queer Lovers and Hateful Others looks at the environments in which queer bodies have become worthy of protection, and the everyday erasures that shape life in the inner city, and how queer activists actively seek out and dispel the myths of sites of nostalgia for the 'invented traditions' of women-and-gay-friendliness. Haritaworn guides the reader through a rich archive of media, arts, policy, and activism, including posters, newspaper reports, hate crime action plans, urban projects, psychological studies, demonstrations, kiss-ins, political speeches, and films. In the process, queer lovers, drag kings, criminalised youth, homosexuals persecuted under National Socialism, and other figures of degeneracy and regeneration appear on a shared plane, where new ways of sharing space become imaginable.

Allyship, network, and community: these concepts have recently returned to the center of (queer) feminist, gender-specific, and intersectional theories and practices. The book's contributions address successes and challenges of queer-feminist, anti-racist, and intersectional alliances in their local, regional, and global interconnectedness, as well as examples of queer, non-heteronormative, inter*, and trans* collectives and solidarities.
