  • The Case of Athens
    Uniconflicts 61 05 Crisis ridden space, knowledge production and social struggles: The case of Athens Stefania Gyftopoulou PhD Candidate in Geography, Harokopio University e-mail: [email protected] Asimina Paraskevopoulou PhD Candidate in Development Planning, University College London e-mail: [email protected] 1. CRISIS 1.1. ‘Crisis’ as critique and knowledge The word, ‘crisis’ comes from the Greek verb ‘Krinein’ which means to judge, to form an opinion, to criticize. Crisis does not predefine a specific response. It is the act and the outcome of the critique; the mental act that leads to a response. Accordingly, cri- tique comes from the Greek noun ‘kritiki’. ‘Kritiki’ is carried out in order for ‘krinein’ to take place. Thus, crisis cannot truly exist without the act of critique. Roitman (2011: para 6) provides an enlightening explanation of “how crisis is constructed as an object of knowledge”. It is a 62 Crisis ridden space means to think of history as a narrative of events, politics, culture, relationships and even individual behaviours and norms. It works as a means to judge the past and learn from the past. But when she speaks of judging the past, is she not referring to the act of critique? Foucault asks for a critique that does not plainly evalu- ate whether the object is good or bad, correct or wrong. He speaks of a critique as a practice, producing along this process, different realities - values and truths - hence, a new ‘normalcy’. Thus, crisis is about becoming. 1.2. Crisis as subject formation and governmentality Through the production of ‘truths’ and ‘normalcy’ crisis influenc- es our understanding not only of ourselves but also of the posi- tion we hold in our societies.

  • Sustaining the Unsustainable Using Precarity As a Tool

Organized police operations in public space were turned into ‘media events’. Specifically, ‘affective precarity’ is considered as a way of demobilizing precarity as a politically and economically operative concept. The article adopts Lauren Berlant’s analysis of the relation between precarity and the austerity state. Keywords Affective precarity, Athens, crisis spectacle, Greek crisis, Lauren Berlant, media events, mediatization, precarity, public space An early version of this article was presented at the conference Inverting Globalization in October 2014 in Amsterdam (The Netherlands), as part of a panel that aimed at re-evaluating precarity as a politically operative concept (see also Neilson and Rossiter, 2008).

  • March 2009 Newsletter
    March 2009 Newsletter Frau Doktor Nancy Stafford of Georgia: From Slave to Physician By Mary R. Bullard and Tracy Moxhay Castle* Chapter 1 In 1850 a cotton planter named Robert Stafford fathered a daughter (later named Cornelia) by a woman named “Juda.” Three years later Juda bore him a second daughter (later named Nancy). On an inventory made for Stafford’s tax records they were simply young females, listed only by age, not by name or family. One was six years old, the other was nine years old. They were the only female mulattos in their age group. All the others in their age group were black. “Mulatto” indicated to the county tax assessor that, in this case, their father was a white man.1 Their first appearance in the historical record was in an 1860 inventory in Camden County, Georgia. It was a slave inventory. They were slaves because Juda was a slave. These events were not so unusual on the southern plantations of the United States, but ensuing developments were remarkable. This paper focuses upon Nancy’s life, for she grew up to follow a career. It was an unusual one for an African-American girl born before the Civil War. Considering that she was born of a slave mother, her choice of career was downright incredible. The child grew up to became a physician, to practice in Europe. She died in 1933. The location of her grave is unknown. Although her descendants told us she was buried in London, no 2 confirming evidence has appeared. 1 U.
