In a world shaped by dominant narratives and narrow representations, this book explores the transformative power of non-standard representation. Through the lens of indigenous, Chicana/o, and Mexican immigrant experiences, it delves into the complexities of identity, challenging stereotypes and creating new spaces for self-definition. This book is a rallying cry for those who dare to represent themselves on their own terms. It celebrates the resilience, creativity, and determination of individuals and communities who disrupt the status quo and forge new paths towards empowerment and liberation. Drawing upon a diverse range of voices and perspectives, this book examines the historical and ongoing processes of racialization and colonization. It highlights the power of storytelling, art, and activism as tools for resistance, identity formation, and social change. By reclaiming their own narratives, marginalized groups challenge the dominant narratives that have long defined them. They embrace intersectionality, redefine masculinity and femininity, and assert their right to self-representation. This book celebrates the richness and diversity of human experience, recognizing that every identity is unique and deserving of respect. Moreover, this book advocates for the importance of allyship and solidarity in creating a more inclusive society. It recognizes that the pursuit of non-standard representation is not solely the responsibility of marginalized groups but a collective endeavor that requires the active participation of all members of society. As we delve into the pages of this book, we embark on a journey of self-discovery, empowerment, and transformation. We discover the power of embracing our unique identities and using our voices to shape the world around us. Through the lens of non-standard representation, we gain a deeper understanding of the complexities of identity, representation, and the human experience. If you like this book, write a review!

This is an open access book. Department of Cultural Study, Universitas Sebelas Maret warmly welcomes you to The International Conference on Cultural Studies (ICCUS). The ICCUS 2024 is the 2nd series since the 1st series was held in 2023.This conference will be held on September 11th, 2024. We encourage participants from all over the world to discuss about “Art, Urban Culture, and Global Ethics”. Contemporary political phenomena influence the city atmosphere. Some time before the General Election in Indonesia, political party contestation has given rise to political segregation which is expressed in poetry, caricatures, party symbols and control of urban space. Furthermore, the city is synonymous with political hegemony and protests. In other parts of the world, war has damaged urban culture, such as in the Middle East, as well as giving rise to growing protests from communities in other world cities. Politically, this gives rise to the term identity politics, a politics based on embracing equality based on the similarities of a group to achieve a certain goal, for example to gain recognition for the group's identity or raise the level and dignity of the group. Identity politics drives the actions of city residents to achieve certain political goals. This identity politics capitalizes on race, ethnicity, language, customs, gender and religion, giving rise to conflicts of interest between city residents. Meanwhile, on the cultural side, a new term has emerged known as "hustle culture", a culture of hard work patterns above the normal threshold with the aim of achieving success in a field. The impact of this "hustle culture" is damage to the social order system, city residents become slaves to technology, and toxic negativity. Both political, social, cultural and economic due to global influences give rise to vertical and horizontal conflicts. There is a need for a global ethic of "cultural diplomacy" as a solution as well as a basic consensus related to binding values, irrevocable standards and moral attitudes, which can be affirmed by all religions, even non-religious ones. There is no survival in the world without global ethics, that peace between social elements will not be created without diplomatic dialogue and cooperation between civilizations with an open mind and tolerance. How do social humanities describe the current changing urban arts, culture and socio-political phenomena from various scientific disciplines? Notable Keynote and Invited Speakers will share their speeches, participants will present their papers, and we will provide a platform to support new opportunities and future collaboration. Your participation and contribution at ICCUS 2024 will be greatly appreciated!

What is a crime and how do we construct it? The answers to these questions are complex and entangled in a web of power relations that require us to think differently about processes of criminalization and regulation. This book draws on Foucault's concept of governmentality as a lens to analyze and critique how crime is understood, reproduced, and challenged. It explores the dynamic interplay between practices of representation, processes of criminalization, and the ways that these circulate to both reflect and constitute crime and "justice."

This book explores representations of intersex – intersex persons, intersex communities, and intersex as a cultural concept and knowledge category – in contemporary North American literature and popular culture. The study turns its attention to the significant paradigm shift in the narratives on intersex that occurred within early 1990s intersex activism in response to biopolitical regulations of intersex bodies. Focusing on the emergence of recent autobiographical stories and cultural productions like novels and TV series centering around intersex, Viola Amato provides a first systematic analysis of an activism-triggered resignification of intersex.

Rejection and Disaffiliation in Twenty-First Century American Immigration Narratives examines changing attitudes about national sovereignty and affiliation. Katie Daily delinks twenty-first century American immigration narratives from 9/11, examining genre alterations within a scope of literary analysis that is wider than what “post-9/11” allows. What emerges is an understanding of the speed at which the rhetoric and aims of many twenty-first century immigration narratives significantly depart from the traditions established post-1900. Daily investigates a recent trend in which novelists and filmmakers question what it means to be an immigrant in contemporary America and explores how these “disaffiliation” narratives challenge some of the most fundamental traditions in American literature and society.

In both politics and art in recent decades, there has been a dramatic shift in emphasis on representation of identity. Liberal ideals of universality and individuality have given way to a concern with the visibility and recognition of underrepresented groups. Modernist and postmodernist celebrations of disruption and subversion have been challenged by the view that representation is integral to social change. Despite this convergence, neither political nor aesthetic theory has given much attention to the increasingly central role of art in debates and struggles over cultural identity in the public sphere. Connecting Hegelian aesthetics with contemporary cultural politics, Jason Miller argues that both the aesthetic and political value of art are found in the reflexive self-awareness that artistic representation enables. The significance of art in modern life is that it shows us both the particular element in humanity as well as the human element in particularity. Just as Hegel asks us to acknowledge how different historical and cultural contexts produce radically different experiences of art, identity-based art calls on its audiences to situate themselves in relation to perspectives and experiences potentially quite remote—or even inaccessible—from their own. Miller offers a timely response to questions such as: How does contemporary art’s politics of perception contest liberal notions of deliberative politics? How does the cultural identity of the artist relate to the representations of cultural identity in their work? How do we understand and evaluate identity-based art aesthetically? Discussing a wide range of works of art and popular culture—from Antigone to Do the Right Thing and The Wire—this book develops a new conceptual framework for understanding the representation of cultural identity that affirms art’s capacity to effect social change.
