The third issue of TRANSPOSITIONES is devoted to trans concepts of materiality and queer politics emerging from the view of the world entangled in the hybrid relationships of matter, gender, human and nonhuman, technology and epistemology derived from Barad’s agential realist interpretation of quantum physics. The central texts in this issue are the German translations of Karen Barad’s article “Trans-Materialities: Trans*/Matter/Realities and Queer Political Imaginings” and Susan Stryker’s essay “My Words to Victor Frankenstein Above the Village of Chamounix. Performing Transgender Rage”. The basic intention of this issue is, therefore, to form a platform for critical discussion of Karen Barad’s method of discursive transposition of approaches, assuming a subversive coexistence of post-secular conversions of the idea of genesis and physically proven sources of planetary life on Earth.

Theorizing gender is more urgent and highly political than ever before. These are times, in many countries, of increased visibility of women in public life and high-profile campaigns against sexual violence and harassment. Challenges to fixed, traditional gender norms have paved the way for the recognition of gay marriage and gender recognition acts allowing people to change the gender assigned to them at birth. Yet these are also times of religious and political backlash by the alt right, the demonization of the very term ‘gender’ and a renewed embrace of the ‘naturalness’ of gendered difference as ordained by God or Science. A follow-up to the authors’ 2002 text, Theorizing Gender, this timely and necessary intervention revisits gender theory for contemporary times. Refusing a singular ‘truth about gender’, the authors explore the multiple strands which go into making our gendered identities, in the context of materialist and intersectional perspectives interwoven with phenomenological and performative ones. The resulting critical overview will be a welcome and invaluable guide for students and scholars of gender across the social sciences and humanities.

In the early 1990s, no one talked about transgender people, and no one knew one. We were not on TV or in movies. What formed the visible part of the transcommunity – overwhelmingly white, urban, and middle class – was also overwhelmingly focused on conferences, surgery or hormones and cisgender acceptance. This was still a determinedly non-political population, often in defensive crouch because it was also constantly under attack by the media, police, local legislatures, feminists and even LGB-but-never-T advocates. We were a group that still thought of ourselves as a collection of separate individuals, not a movement. What made political consciousness so difficult was that there was no “transgender section” of town, where we saw each other regularly. And mainstream society mostly ignored us. And when it didn’t, it usually made clear it despised us. We were freaks. We were gendertrash. We lived in a transient and indoor community that knew itself only a few days at a time during conferences at hotels out on the interstate. But all that was about to change. Even when politics are avoided, bringing despised and marginalized people together is itself a political act. Without realizing or intending it, the community was reaching critical mass. Even in those pre-Internet, pre-cellphone days, enough transpeople were running into one another often enough to begin realizing we could be a force, that we didn’t really need cisgender acceptance. What we needed was our civil rights. This is the inside story of how in just a few years, a handful of trans activists would come together in the face of enormous difficulties and opposition to launch from the very margins of society what would grow into the modern political movement for gender rights.

Für die Kritik der modernen Geschlechterordnung war und ist die Kritik an Naturbezügen zentral – zugespitzt im Argument, das vermeintlich Natürliche sei ganz und gar kulturell und die Geschlechterordnung (ja, die Geschlechtlichkeit selbst) infolgedessen vollständig sozial konstruiert. Aus dieser Perspektive steht jedes Argumentieren mit Natur grundsätzlich unter Essentialismusverdacht. In der historischen Arbeit entpuppt sich diese Kritik zunehmend als vorschnelle Begrenzung – wenn nämlich nicht auch danach gefragt werden kann, worum es Akteur*innen eigentlich geht, wenn sie von "Natur" reden, oder wenn ein Naturbegriff absolut gesetzt wird, der selbst historisch ist. Im vorliegenden Heft werden solche Fragen anhand historischer Fallstudien von der Antike bis ins frühe 20. Jahrhundert diskutiert. Aus dem Inhalt: Die Rolle der Inkas in Guaman Pomas Geschichte der Anden / Carolyn Merchants "Death of Nature" und sozio-ökologische Utopien der Frühen Neuzeit / Tierische Beziehungen / Schweizer Naturforscher in Niederländisch-Ostindien / German-Speaking Merchants on Honour and Manhood / Vormoderne Geschlechtsidentitäten in Frage stellen? / Die Verkörperung der Natur und der natürliche Körper in Pliniusʼ "Naturalis historia" / Menschen sind auch Mütter / The Nature of the Posthuman: Rosi Braidotti and the Resurrection of Ecofeminismian language? "Nature" and its presumed opposite, "culture" are central categories when examining the modern order of the sexes. A central argument has long been that what is supposedly "natural" might actually be entirely "cultural" and that the "natural" gender order and even gender itself is, indeed, socially constructed. Any reference to "nature" has thus been fundamentally subjected to a suspicion of essentialism, leading to to harsh feminist critiques of intellectual currents such as "ecofeminism" or "feminism of difference". This binary way of thinking, however, seems to bear in it an unproductive limitation of research. It becomes impossible to ask what historical actors are doing when they use the term "nature" and it makes the concept of nature absolute, rather than showing it to be the subject to considerable historical change. This issue discusses questions of the contingency of nature and its relationship with gender along various historical settings, thus making an important contribution to our current debate on "nature", culture and the gendered order of society.

Queerness remains a central fault line in contemporary South Asia. Colonial-era ‘anti-sodomy’ laws, codified in Article 377 of the penal codes in India, Bangladesh and Pakistan, or Article 365 in Sri Lanka, exemplify the shared imperial lineages of the region as also their long postcolonial afterlives. Across South Asia and the world, new authoritarianisms have reignited old fault lines around sexuality. New media technologies have increasingly connected diasporic space with mainland South Asia, globalising queer networks. Yet, these trajectories are necessarily discontinuous. In the last two decades whilst there has been an explosion of LGBTQ+ visibility most notably in South Asian film, television and new media, this visibility has come with mainstream ideological agendas which do not especially represent the diversity of queer lives in South Asia along key identities of caste, class, religion and region. This book seeks to encourage critical thinking by suggesting ways in which notions of culture, neoliberalism, nationalism and queerness in the context of new authoritarianisms are disentangled. The chapters in this volume take up these questions and offer critical imaginings of sexual politics and its imbrication with popular culture and authoritarian politics within contemporary South Asia. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of South Asian Popular Culture.
