Feminist Periodicals . The U n vers ty o f w sconsln System Feminist Periodicals A current listing of contents WOMEN'S STUDIES Volume 20, Number I, Spring 2000 Published by Phyllis Holman Weisbard LIBRARIAN Women's Studies Librarian F minist CD Peri 1 Is A current listing of contents Volume 20, Number 1 Spring 2000 Periodical literature is the cutting edge of women's scholarship, feminist theory, and much of women's culture. Feminist Periodicals: A Current Listing of Contents is pUblished by the Office of the University of Wisconsin System Women's Studies Librarian on aquarterly basis with the intentof increasing pUblicawarenessoffeminist periodicals. It is our hope that Feminist Periodicals will serve several purposes: to keep the reader abreast of current topics in feminist literature; to increase readers' familiarity with awide spectrum offeminist periodicals; and to provide the requisite bibliographic information should a reader wish to sUbscribe to ajournal or to obtain a particular article at her library or through interlibrary loan. (Users will need to be aware of the limitations of the new copyright law with regard to photocopying of copyrighted materials.) Table ofcontents pages from current issues of major feministjournals are reproduced in each issue of Feminisf Periodicals, preceded by a comprehensive annotated listing of all journals we have selected. As publication schedules vary enormously, not every periodical will have table of contents pages reproduced in each issue of FP. The annotated listing provides the following information on each journal: 1. Year of first publication. 2. Frequency of pUblication. 3. U.S. subscription price(s). 4. Subscription address. 5. Current editor. 6. Editorial address (if different from subscription address). 7. International Standard Serials Number (ISSN). 8. OCLC, Inc. Control Number. 9. Locations where the journal is held in the UW System. 10. Publications in which the journal is indexed. 11. Fulltext products in which publication appears. 12. Subject focus/statement of purpose of the journal. Please note that in the actual text, only the numbers 1 to 12 are used to identify the different categories of information. Our goal is to have represented in FP all English-language feminist periodicals with a substantial national or regional readership, with an emphasis on scholarly journals and small press offerings. We do not include pUblications which, though feminist in philosophy, do not focus solely on women's issues. Nor, with few exceptions, doweinclude newsstand magazines. We are also forced to omitperiodicals which lack acomplete table ofcontents. We encourage feminist serials to build afull table ofcontents into their regularformatto facilitate the indexing feminist literature sorely needs. Interested readers will find more complete information on feminist periodicals in DWM: A DirectoryofWomen's Media published by the National Council for Research on Women (530 Broadway at Spring Street, New York, NY 10012); and in Women's Periodicals and Newspapers: A Union List of the Holdings of Madison Area Libraries, edited by James P. Danky, compiled by Maureen E. Hady, Barry Christopher, and Neill E. Strache (Boston: G.K. Hall, 1982). Suggestions forimprovementsofFeministPeriodicals are gratefully received. We would particularlyappreciate assistance from readers in the UW-System with ourefforts to keep the holding information complete and up to date. Please let us know about new sUbscriptions, subscriptions we have overlooked, cancellations, or other pertinent information.

  • Bad Is Stronger Than Good
    Review of General Psychology Copyright 2001 by the Educational Publishing Foundation 2001. Vol. 5. No. 4. 323-370 1089-2680/O1/S5.O0 DOI: 10.1037//1089-2680.5.4.323 Bad Is Stronger Than Good Roy F. Baumeister and Ellen Bratslavsky Catrin Finkenauer Case Western Reserve University Free University of Amsterdam Kathleen D. Vohs Case Western Reserve University The greater power of bad events over good ones is found in everyday events, major life events (e.g., trauma), close relationship outcomes, social network patterns, interper- sonal interactions, and learning processes. Bad emotions, bad parents, and bad feedback have more impact than good ones, and bad information is processed more thoroughly than good. The self is more motivated to avoid bad self-definitions than to pursue good ones. Bad impressions and bad stereotypes are quicker to form and more resistant to disconfirmation than good ones. Various explanations such as diagnosticity and sa- lience help explain some findings, but the greater power of bad events is still found when such variables are controlled. Hardly any exceptions (indicating greater power of good) can be found. Taken together, these findings suggest that bad is stronger than good, as a general principle across a broad range of psychological phenomena. Centuries of literary efforts and religious pothesis that bad is stronger than good (see also thought have depicted human life in terms of a Rozin & Royzman, in press). That is, events struggle between good and bad forces. At the that are negatively valenced (e.g., losing metaphysical level, evil gods or devils are the money, being abandoned by friends, and receiv- opponents of the divine forces of creation and ing criticism) will have a greater impact on the harmony.

  • Faith Ringgold Interviewed by Dena Muller Date: Sunday, Nov
    NYFAI Interview: Faith Ringgold interviewed by Dena Muller Date: Sunday, Nov. 25th, 2007 D.M. O.k. it’s November 25th of 2007, we’re at Faith Ringgold’s studio in New Jersey, and conducting the oral history interview for the New York Feminist Art Institute. My name is Dena Muller interviewing Faith Ringgold. So, we’re going to start just talking about the earliest history of the New York Feminist Art Institute. The gala to raise money to open the New York Feminist Art Institute was in March of 1979 and it was at the World Trade Center and the piece there by Louise Nevelson was being featured as part of the gala celebration and Louise was there. F.R. An outdoor piece. D.M. No, the indoor piece that was there (in lobby). F.R. The indoor piece. Now I’m completely foggy on that one. D.M. I raised it just to say do you remember the gala at all? You were involved in the New York Feminist Art Institute later, but do you remember the gala happening or do you remember hearing anything about it. F.R. Well, I’ll tell you, I’ve been in so many galas (laughter). D.M. We just want to . F.R. I remember there were lots of exciting things that happened. Most every week there was something, something to remember, something really historically moving that had to do with the feminist movement. And I know now that there is nothing. There is nothing. D.M. (hesitate) Right. F.R.

  • The Law of Placenta
    The Law of Placenta Mathilde Cohent ABSTRACT: Of the forms of reproductive labor in which legal scholars have been interested, placenta, the organ developed during pregnancy, has been overlooked. As placenta becomes an object of value for a growing number of individuals, researchers, clinicians, biobanks, and biotech companies, among others, its cultural meaning is changing. At the same time, these various constituencies may be at odds. Some postpartum parents and their families want to repossess their placenta for personal use, while third parties use placentas for a variety of research, medical, and commercial purposes. This Article contributes to the scholarship on reproductive justice and agency by asking who should have access to placentas and under what conditions. The Article emphasizes the insufficient protection the law affords pregnant people wishing to decide what happens to their placenta. Generally considered clinical waste under federal and state law, placental tissue is sometimes made inaccessible to its producers on the ground that it is infectious at the same time as it is made available to third parties on the ground that placenta is discarded and de-identified tissue. Less privileged people who lack the ability to shop for obstetric and other pregnancy-related services that allow them to keep their placentas are at a disadvantage in this chain of supply and demand. While calling for further research on the modus operandi of placenta markets and how pregnant people think about them, this Article concludes that lawmakers should take steps to protect decision-making autonomy over placental labor and offers a range of proposals to operationalize this idea.

Thank you also to Professor Susan Rankaitis for inspiring my dedication to this project, and to Professor Nancy Macko for being such a supportive and encouraging advisor, thesis reader, and role model. 2 Women’s art is rooted in a long history of traditional craft practices. It is said that during the times of male-dominated society, if a woman had any brains she would explore her creativity through quilting, clothing design and needlework; creating utilitarian objects for the household to serve her husband and family. Being a part of an extended family lineage of talented and inspired craftswomen has provoked me to analyze the evolution of craft from a domestic practice into a higher form of feminist art.

  • The Shifting Meanings of Gift and Commodity in Hungarian Plasma Donation
    The Value of Blood: The Shifting Meanings of Gift and Commodity in Hungarian Plasma Donation By Zsófia Bacsadi Submitted to Central European University Department of Sociology and Social Anthropology In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Sociology and Social Anthropology Supervisor: Claudio Sopranzetti Second reader: Judit Sándor CEU eTD Collection Vienna, Austria 2021 Abstract Even though plasma is a component of whole blood, plasma donation as a social practice is very different from blood donation. Since plasma donation involves financial compensation and the harvested plasma goes through more complex biotechnological treatments and global economic transactions until it reaches its recipients, the Titmussian model of ‘blood as gift’ and donation as citizen-making (1970) cannot be adopted in this case. In Hungary, plasma is procured by profit- oriented organizations which creates tensions and interconnections between altruistic and economic motivations and narratives, both in the case of donors, staff, and the institution itself. Rather than extinguishing each other or the economic factors eliminating the altruistic ones, the two work in tandem in the different stages of procurement. The thesis explores how these tensions are generated and managed in a Hungarian plasma center in Budapest, how plasma is both presented as gift and commodity. Through the methods of carnal sociology (Wacquant 2014), participant observation, and semi-structured interviews it is revealed how the certain material traits of plasma, the process of donation, the interactions within the center, and the communication of the institution itself emphasizes, suppresses or ties together the altruistic or commercial aspects of plasma donation.

Kenney, Jr.: The Moment, 1910: Virginia Woolf, Arnold Bennett, and Turn of the The Moment, 1910: Virginia Woolf, Arnold Bennett, and Turn ofthe Century Consciousness by EDWIN J. KENNEY, JR. N THE YEARS 1923-24 Virginia Woolf was embroiled in an argument I with Arnold Bennett about the responsibility of the novelist and the future ofthe novel. In her famous essay "Mr. Bennett and Mrs. Brown," she observed that "on or about December, 1910, human character changed";1 and she proceeded to argue, without specifying the causes or nature of that change, that because human character had changed the novel must change if it were to be a true representation of human life. Since that time the at once assertive and vague remark about 1910, isolated, has served as a convenient point of departure for historians now writing about the social and cultural changes occurring during the Edwardian period.2 Literary critics have taken the ideas about fiction from "Mr. Bennett and Mrs. Brown" and Woolfs other much-antholo­ gized essay "Modern Fiction" as a free-standing "aesthetic manifesto" of the new novel of sensibility;3 and those who have recorded and discussed the "whole contention" between Virginia Woolf and Arnold Bennett have regarded the relation between Woolfs historical observation and her ideas about the novel either as just a rhetorical strategy or a generational disguise for the expression of class bias against Bennett.4 Yet few readers have asked what Virginia Woolf might have nleant by her remark about 1910 and the novel, or what it might have meant to her.
