  • The Cases of Femen and Women of Liberia1
    Feminine Features as Political Tools: The Cases of Femen and Women of Liberia1 Rasgos femeninos como herramientas políticas: los casos de Femen y Mujeres de Liberia Gabriela Caviedes2 Universidad de los Andes (Chile) Recibido: 30-11-16 Aprobado: 07-01-17 Abstract This paper is an analysis of the different ways in which feminism can be understood, using as examples the cases of the feminist movements Femen and Women of Liberia. Both are distinguished by using feminine features as political tools, and both have been an issue of interest for audiovisual productions. Each one is the main subject of two documentaries: Ukraine is not a Brothel, that concerns Femen movement; and Pray the Devil Back to Hell, that concerns Women of Liberia movement. I shall use this material in order to present each. After presenting them I will analyze them in light of the definition and division of feminism that Karen Offen, scholar of the University of California, does. I will then conclude that Femen is an example of what she calls ‘individualistic feminism’, and Women of Liberia an example of what she named ‘relational feminism’. I will also conclude that the political position they achieve is also due to the branch of feminism they represent. Key-words: Feminism, Femen, Ukraine Is Not a Brothel, Woman of Liberia, Pray the Devil Back to Hell. 1 La elaboración de este trabajo ha contado con el financiamiento de la Comisión Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnología de Chile, CONICYT-PFCHA/Doctorado Nacional/2016-21160065. 2 ([email protected]).

  • The Pussy Riot Affair: Gender and National Identity in Putin's Russia 1 Peter Rutland 2 the Pussy Riot Affair Was a Massive In
    The Pussy Riot affair: gender and national identity in Putin’s Russia 1 Peter Rutland 2 The Pussy Riot affair was a massive international cause célèbre that ignited a widespread movement of support for the jailed activists around the world. The case tells us a lot about Russian society, the Russian state, and Western perceptions of Russia. It also raises interest in gender as a frame of analysis, something that has been largely overlooked in 20 years of work by mainstream political scientists analyzing Russia’s transition to democracy.3 There is general agreement that the trial of the punk rock group signaled a shift in the evolution of the authoritarian regime of President Vladimir Putin. However, there are many aspects of the affair still open to debate. Will the persecution of Pussy Riot go down in history as one of the classic trials that have punctuated Russian history, such as the arrest of dissidents Andrei Sinyavsky and Yuli Daniel in 1966, or the trial of revolutionary Vera Zasulich in 1878? Or is it just a flash in the pan, an artifact of media fascination with attractive young women behaving badly? The case also poses a challenge for feminists. While some observers, including Janet Elise Johnson (below), see Pussy Riot as part of the struggle for women’s rights, others, including Valerie Sperling and Marina Yusupova, raise questions about the extent to Pussy Riot can be seen as advancing the feminist cause. Origins Pussy Riot was formed in 2011, emerging from the underground art group Voina which had been active since 2007.

  • Oksana Shachko (1987–2018), Co-Founder of FEMEN
    IN MEMORIAM _____________________________________________________________ Oksana Shachko (1987–2018), co-founder of FEMEN Gender, feminism, and performative protest This last July, FEMEN co-founder Oksana (or Oxana) Shachko was found dead in her apartment in the Paris suburbs from what appears to have been a suicide.1 Shachko was a revolutionary feminist who offered her body for her cause; she was also an artist, trained and practiced in painting Orthodox icons from her childhood. Born in western Ukraine amidst the post-Soviet eco- nomic devastation, she had wanted to dedicate her life to the church and then to communism before committing to feminism in her late teens.2 She had been forced to flee to France in 2013 when Ukrainian authorities (under the admin- istration of pro-Russia President Viktor Yanukovych) launched proceedings against FEMEN for terrorism. They had found some weapons and a portrait of Vladimir Putin with a target, which FEMEN alleges had been planted. By most accounts, Shachko was a person whose full-bodied beliefs ordered her life, leaving little room for self-care. Outside of Ukraine, she seems to have gotten lost, disconnecting from FEMEN and struggling to find a new role by returning to her Orthodox-related art. According to one of her closest friends, it was exile that killed her.3 FEMEN has received a tremendous amount of attention and sparked much controversy over the last decade, but Shachko’s death is good moment to con- sider FEMEN from her perspective. Phenomena such as FEMEN have multiple versions and change over time, and Shachko’s FEMEN is distinct from the FEMEN we see now.

  • Pussy Riot & Femen
    FEMEN protest in Kiev during 2010 Ukrainian election Sisters Kick Some Patriarchal Ass Pussy Riot & FEMEN Change the Face of Feminism By Chandra Niles Folsom It didn’t take long for jailed Pussy Riot members Maria Alyokhina and Nadezhda Tolokonnikova to get back to kicking some patriarchal ass after being sprung from the Russian Gulag. Alyokhina and Tolokonnikova had been in the slammer for almost two years for slamming President Putin in song at a Moscow cathedral and posting it online. Since their release by Putin, just before the Winter Olympics held in Sochi, they have spoken out about their experiences to journalists, appeared on television and were introduced onstage by Madonna in New York at Amnesty International’s Bring Human Rights Home concert. They topped it off by performing in protest just outside Olympic Park during the games. The band was in town to protest what they said was lack of freedom of speech and to record a new music video called "Putin Will Teach You To Love Your Country." And as they have become well accustomed, Pussy Riot members were attacked by security officials and beaten. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivT-I-yxtdY Donning their traditional colorful ski masks, Pussy Riot was performing when they were pepper-sprayed by a Russian Cossack before other Cossacks jumped in, publicly flogging and unmasking them. One of the band's posse said that the Cossacks shouted at them, “You sold yourselves to the Americans!" A day earlier, band members had been detained and held for several hours at a police station nearby.

    62 Multilingual Discourses Vol. 2.1-2. (Summer 2015) Marine Gheno The FEMENist Connection: Ruptures and Agency in FEMEN France he logo adopted by FEMEN is the letter Ф, “F” in Cyrillic, hand- drawn to resemble a chest with two breasts (see fig. 1). The T group announces already with this iconography a desire to explore nudity as an activist practice. FEMEN activists are known (and famous) for inscribing the messages of their protest directly on their bare breasts and other parts of their bodies, thus claiming nudity as a way towards freedom through a “naked war” (fig. 2). The use of multiple languages on FEMEN’s demonstration signs in France, such as English and French, Arabic, Russian, Ukrainian and more depending on the topic (fig. 2), enables the group to draw a wider, and transnational, audience. FEMEN has been vocal in favor of abortion rights and gay marriage, in protest against the extreme-right party Front National, and the oppression of Muslim women by Islamism. The group claims to defend a universal and transnational new feminism promoting all women’s liberation using breasts as weapons. While successfully bringing women issues to the forefront of the mainstream media, their method is also criticized for embodying and reproducing Western standards of beauty as well as imposing Western Marine Gheno 63 neoliberal views of freedom on the non-Western other, namely Muslim women. Nudity as a form of activism is very powerful: “Because they disrupt sacrosanct dichotomies of public/private and visible/hidden, naked bodies constitute a uniquely explosive site of protest” (Eileraas 41).

  • Kyiv, Ukraine: the City of Domes and Demons from the Collapse Of
    Roman Adrian Roman Cybriwsky Kyiv, Ukraine is a pioneering case study of urban change from socialism to the hard edge of a market economy after the Soviet collapse. It looks in detail at the changing social geography of the city, and on critical problems such as corruption, social inequality, sex tourism, and destruction of historical ambience by greedy developers. The book is based on fieldwork and an insider’s knowledge of the city, and is engagingly written. Roman Adrian Cybriwsky is Professor of Geography and Urban Studies at Temple University in Philadelphia, USA, and former Ukraine Kyiv, Fulbright Scholar at the National University of Kyiv Mohyla Academy. He divides his time between Philadelphia, Kyiv, and Tokyo, about which he has also written books. “Roman Cybriwsky knows this city and its people, speaks their language, feels their frustrations with its opportunist and corrupt post-Soviet public figures Roman Adrian Cybriwsky who have bankrupted this land morally and economically. He has produced a rich urban ethnography stoked by embers of authorial rage.” — John Charles Western, Professor of Geography, Syracuse University, USA “Kyiv, Ukraine is an interdisciplinary tour de force: a scholarly book that is Kyiv, Ukraine also an anthropological and sociological study of Kyivites, a guide to Kyiv and its society, politics, and culture, and a journalistic investigation of the city’s darkest secrets. At this time of crisis in Ukraine, the book is indispensable.” — Alexander Motyl, Professor of Political Science, Rutgers University, USA The City of Domes and Demons “Filled with personal observations by a highly trained and intelligent urbanist, Kyiv, Ukraine is a beautiful and powerful work that reveals from the Collapse of Socialism profound truths about a city we all need to know better.” — Blair A.
