  • Vampires in Transition
    VAMPIRES IN TRANSITION Daniel Berjano Rodríguez Utrecht University and Universidad de Granada GEMMA 2016-2018 Supervisor: Adelina Sánchez Espinosa (UGR) Second supervisor: Gianmaria Colpani (UU) July 2018 VAMPIRES IN TRANSITION ABSTRACT In Vampires in Transition, I develop semiotic analyses of two key films of the Spanish transition: Elisa, vida mia (Carlos Saura, 1977) and Arrebato (Ivan Zulueta, 1980). Building off Gilles Deleuze's semiotics (1986, 1989) and Teresa de Lauretis' film theory (1984, 1987) – both drawing on Charles Sanders Peirce (1930-35/1958), I have designed three inter-connected concepts in relation to the vampire figuration: 'vampire-images', 'camera-vampires', and the 'phoenix'. One one hand, these concepts aim to approach the films under study through decolonial and trans-feminist perspectives. On the other hand, they intend to draw meaningful insights on Hispanic film studies in relation to what Donna Haraway calls “informatics of domination” (1991c). Departing from one of the peripheral meanings of the vampire – a male sexual predator, the vampire has been designed as a perverse figuration of structural violence in cybernetic capitalism which could help us understand the relationship between massive addictive habits of digital machines and western patriarchal agendas, as Wendy Huy Kyong Chun studies (2016). Drawing on Teresa de Luretis (1984) and my own trans-faggot experience, vampire-images are designed to give an account of the processes of simulation that work to erase traces of exploitation. They depart from Gilles Deleuze's time-images of modern cinema (1989), which imply irrational cuts caused by particular relinkages of sound and visual data. In addition, as my analysis of Elisa, vida mia attempts to prove, vampire-images involve icons of women as objectified or subordinated to men.

  • Beyond Inclusion: Non-Monogamies and the Borders of Citizenship
    Sexuality & Culture DOI 10.1007/s12119-016-9398-2 ORIGINAL PAPER Beyond Inclusion: Non-monogamies and the Borders of Citizenship Pablo Pe´rez Navarro1 Ó Springer Science+Business Media New York 2016 Abstract This paper aims to understand the extent to which monogamy operates not only as a constitutive element of marriage-like institutions but also as a meta- judicial source of frequently overlooked forms of state violence. Drawing on the case of the Spanish law, it explores the privilege-driven logic that regulates the access to a complex set of economic benefits and legal protections, including immigration related rights, in order to show the extent to which monogamy is part of the grounding structure of an exclusionary constitutional citizenship. In addition, drawing on semi-structured interviews held with Spanish poly activists and bio- graphical interviews held with LGBTQ non-monogamous people, it offers a view of non-monogamous communities as paramount spaces of resistance when it comes to re-imagining the relationship between the state and the intimate realm, beyond the mere inclusion of poly and other non-monogamous intimate relationships in certain pieces of legislation. Keywords Non-monogamies Á Polyamory Á Law Á LGBTQ Á Citizenship I’m not included in most legislation these days, but me and my people, we’re the ones they’d want to legislate against.

    ENSAYO B. Fernández Suárez La construcción de la alteridad victimizada en los discursos políticos y mediáticos a través del debate sobre el uso de la burka The construction of a victimized alterity in political and media discourses via the burka ban debate ■ Belén Fernández Suárez Universidade da Coruña (España) DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10304/ricd.1.3.2532 Resumen En este artículo se analiza la posición de los partidos políticos con presencia en el parlamento catalán en la legislatura 2006-2010 en relación con la prohibición del burka en los espacios públicos. Esta es una polémica que alimenta la islamofobia hacia determinados colectivos, especialmente, inmigrantes en el Estado. Se trata de una política del discurso que crea categorías e interviene sobre una necesidad creada que busca ensalzar los valores occidentales como hegemónicos frente a la “otredad”. La imagen de la mujer inmigrada es vestida de sumisión, y es subalterizada para ser liberada de su yugo patriarcal en nuestras sociedades civilizadas. La visión crítica sobre esta restricción de libertades en el espacio público tiene como portavoces a partidos ubicados en la izquierda alternativa (nacionalista) y ecologista. Abstract In this article we will analyze the position of the political parties present in the Ca- talan parliament in legislature 2006-2010 regarding the burka ban in public spaces. This controversy feeds Islamophobia towards certain groups, particularly migrants. It is part of discursive politics that creates categories and intervenes on a created need seeking to acclaim occidental values as hegemonic against the “otherness”. The image of the immigrant woman is dressed submissively and is subalternized in order to be released from its patriarchal yoke in our civilized societies.

  • Feminist Journalism: a Radical, Cross-Cutting Intervention
    INCLUSIONS, VISIBILITIES AND OPPORTUNITIES Feminist journalism: a radical, cross-cutting intervention Isabel Muntané Nadia Sanmartin Feminism is changing our perception of the world and this is a revolution. A bloodless and profoundly transformational revolution, because it involves individual and collective daily life. Communication is one of the most important, influential tools available for spreading and consolidating this process of change, and doing so through feminist journalism plays an essential role. Mainstreaming the gender perspective in our professional practice not only allows us to fulfil our profession’s objectives in terms of quality, but also meet society’s demands for this revolutionary process. We do this as a declaration of principles, without hiding behind concepts of neutral or objective journalism (which we know do not exist), but also flying the flag for critical, quality journalism, dignified journalism that favours diversity, the common good and in defence of human rights. Journalism is a profession that can transform society and guarantee the foundations for a plural, free, conscious and egalitarian world, while ensuring vital collaboration from a critical public. Feminist journalism helps generate critical thought that can rectify gender inequalities and help us question reality, which until now has been seen as a single truth imposed by androcentric power. Such a perspective enables us to disseminate information that is diverse, true and verified, to explain what is happening and in doing so, provide the keys and tools for everyone to understand and, if they wish, question what we publish. Such journalism is not just a political option, which of course it is, but also a means of meeting social demands for a change of approach, whereby information is innovative, diverse, bold, critical and analytical.

  • Ugly Sisters and Toads. Disney Love and Feminist Agency
    FEMINIST POETICS OF THE BODY AND DESIRE Ugly sisters and toads. Disney love and feminist agency Brigitte Vasallo Nadia Sanmartin If there’s one thing that interests me about critical thought on love, it is femicide and the long history of violence in our love lives. We know that femicides are associated with the gender construct, with warlike and possessive masculinity, with the objectification of our lives, in the conquest of our body as a battlefield in a long list of other battlefields. But it is also associated with our dependent construction of love, on both an emotional and material level, in our building of subjectivity, and it calls for the collectivisation of lines of flight. Violence is due to those who cause it but we must come together to create gaps to escape it. So, the goal of this article is to champion feminist self-defence and shared responsibility in this self-defence, based on the idea that ‘I’ do not end at the limits of my skin, but that ‘I’ expand to encompass all of us women. So, relationship violence is the stone that I throw into the pond, to see how far the ripples reach. There is one statement—which is almost an aphorism—that I think we can all agree on. Romantic love kills. Nevertheless, we continue to reproduce it because, when we are in love, we’re quite certain that ours won’t kill us, and because when we make it public, and hence validate it, we’re quite certain that we are not validating love that kills but rather that beautiful love that we say will save us.

  • Analyzing the Historiography of the Iberian Reconquista (718/722–1492/1614) from Feminist and Postcolonial Perspectives
    Islamophobic Narratives of Medieval and Early Modern Iberian History? Analyzing the Historiography of the Iberian Reconquista (718/722–1492/1614) from Feminist and Postcolonial Perspectives By Pablo Monerris Galvañ Submitted to Central European University Department of Gender Studies, Department of History In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Gender Studies with Specialization in Women’s and Gender History Supervisor: Professor Francisca de Haan, Ph.D. Second Reader: Professor Marianne Thivend, Ph.D. CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2018 Abstract This thesis analyzes the (mainly Spanish and Anglo-American) historiography that discursively constructed Muslim presence and Muslim-Christian relationships in Medieval and Early Modern Iberia (711–1614) as a parenthesis amidst Catholic political domination, territorial unity, religious orthodoxy, and ethnic exclusivity. While traditional historiography has approached the history of Medieval and Early Modern Iberia through the concept of Reconquista, since the middle of the 20th century the conceptualization of Convivencia and new theorizations in the fields of History, Postcolonial and Feminist Studies have promoted new historiographical debates on and approaches to the history of Medieval and Early Modern Iberia. Using the theories of Orientalism, Intersectionality, gendered Islamophobia, Deconstruction and Performativity, this thesis analyzes the broad and complex historiographical field about Muslims in Medieval and Early Modern Iberian history, and explores whether this historiographical body produces narratives that can be interpreted as a biased discourse. My analysis shows that the use of the concept of Reconquista has played a powerful role in constructing a nationalist and exclusionary vision of Spanish history, in which Catholic and Muslim subjects were and continue to be constructed in oppositional and hostile ways.
