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.
