The Relationship

Merely CulturalIn this essay Judith Butler discusses the relationship between a ‘hard’ material Marxism and a ‘merely cultural’ cultural studies. Butler’s essay is a response to the attacks launched by feminists and Marxists against cultural studies and its apparent inability to focus on economic problems. Against those who distinguish between cultural and economic struggles Butler insists upon their entanglement avoiding the privilege given to each. Butler also argues that gay and lesbian struggles do indeed work against the reproduction of the entire capitalist system.

And Gender

Drawing on feminist cultural studies, this article critically analyzes the interrelationship between state ideology and gender policies in the sporting domain with a particular focus on the prolonged interdiction of Iranian female spectators from stadiums. Data were collected from online social spaces such as Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. The findings suggest that in the absence of free and democratic public spaces for negotiation of their rights, Iranian women have increasingly used social media and online campaigns as enabling platforms to partake in a communication discourse, raise awareness, practice democracy, mobilize masses, and protest against social injustice.

The Relationship

Dance, Politics & Co-Immunity developed out of a symposium organized by the Master in Choreography and Performance at the Justus-Liebig-University Giessen, Germany, which was held with a joint symposium Thinking—Resisting—Reading the Political organized by the Graduate Center for the Study of Culture at the same university in 2010. Whereas the cultural studies symposium asked, “What specific perspectives and methodological consequences arise for the study of culture that are informed by recent deliberations on the relationship of the political and the aesthetic?” (2010), the dance symposium invited participants and contributors to the anthology “to think about the multiple connections between politics, community, dance, and globalization from the perspective of Dance and Theatre Studies, History, Philosophy, and Sociology” (13). As indicated by the title of the cultural studies symposium and some of the key speakers, including Jacques Rancière, Chantal Mouffe, and Judith Butler, the term political is not used as broadly as it might be used in U.S.-based dance studies discourse. Rather, the political is predominantly investigated by both symposia for its resistive potential and from a liberal or post-Marxist stance.
