Bad Subjects -- Slaveries Issue
Bad Subjects - 07.07.2004 00:47
New issue.
Bad Subjects Slaveries Issue (69)
Euro-American social triumphalists prefer to overlook their own unended
histories of slavery. The Slaveries issue of Bad Subjects
( http://eserver.org/bs/69/) examines precisely those histories in the
rhetoric, philosophy, and historiography of slavery; the use of slavery as a
sexual, political, and critical metaphor; and creation of labor
neo-slaveries. The issue includes Omar Swartz on legal rationalizations of
slavery; Manual Yang on Eugene Genovese and slavery scholarship; Ben
Schiller on voice and authority in slave narratives; Tomasz Kitlinski and
Joe Lockard on sex slavery as a cultural map of eastern Europe; Lev
Lafayette on the Australian national work-for-the-dole scheme as
neo-slavery; Alison Hearn on Bales' 'disposable people' theory for analysing
reality television; Lanfranco Aceti on electronic slave-markets; and Joe
Lockard reviews Francis Bok's slave autobiography.
