She focuses on decolonial thought, feminisms of the Global South, postsocialist sensibilities, fiction and art. Her most recent books include and What Does it Mean to be Post-Soviet? Decolonial Art from the Ruins of the Soviet Empire (Duke University Press, 2018) and A New Political Imagination. Making the Case , co-authored with Tony Fry (Routledge 2020). ABSTRACT Contemporary political, economic and social institutions have no adequate tools to deal with diversity and tend to see it as a challenge. The unresolved evils of modernity that neoliberal globalization attempted to lacquer in its first triumphant years, have reemerged with full force confirming the discriminatory nature of the global culture, its unfair conditions of inclusion through erasing identities or through their commercialization. The overwhelming negative sensibility marking the present darker stage of neoliberal globalization, is not a brotherhood but merely a condition of fellow sufferers who have not fully realized that we are in the same boat and need to cooperate rather than compete to survive. The opinion article addresses the danger of multiplying victimhood rivalries as a manifestation of the modern/ colonial agonistics. This position replaces politics with manipulative moral zeal and withdraws the dimension of the future as a collective existential condition from the horizon. Delinking from victimhood rivalries is a difficult but urgent task of transcending modernity and looking for other options and other worlds intricately correlating and interacting in a complex pluriverse.
她专注于非殖民思想、全球南方的女权主义、后社会主义情感、小说和艺术。她最近的著作包括《后苏联时代意味着什么?》从苏联帝国的废墟去殖民艺术(杜克大学出版社,2018)和一个新的政治想象。与托尼·弗莱合著的《制造案例》(Routledge 2020)。当代的政治、经济和社会机构没有足够的工具来处理多样性,并且倾向于将其视为一种挑战。新自由主义全球化在其最初的胜利岁月里试图抹去的未解决的现代性罪恶,已经以充分的力量重新出现,确认了全球文化的歧视性本质,通过抹去身份或通过身份的商业化,其不公平的包容条件。在新自由主义全球化的当前黑暗阶段,压倒性的消极情感标志着一种兄弟情谊,而仅仅是一种没有完全意识到我们在同一条船上,需要合作而不是竞争来生存的同病相重的情况。这篇评论文章指出,作为现代/殖民斗争的一种表现,受害者对抗成倍增加的危险。这一立场用操纵性的道德热情取代了政治,并从地平线上撤回了作为集体存在条件的未来维度。脱离受害者的对抗是一项艰难而紧迫的任务,它超越现代性,寻找其他选择和其他世界,在一个复杂的多元宇宙中错综复杂地相互关联和相互作用。

Institutional Culture Change 制度文化变革
Pub Date : 1900-01-01 DOI: 10.13169/intecritdivestud.4.2.0031

The purpose of the paper is to explore the architecture of the institutional culture with the aim of proposing a programmatic template to use to implement culture change initiatives in the higher education (HE) sector in South Africa. The need for institutional culture change has been flagged in numerous studies as a barrier in the implementation of substantive and qualitative transformation. Through document analysis, this paper argues that the problem in implementing institutional culture change interventions aligned with the humanising mission of the sector is related to the failure to adopt a social inclusion approach that is based on a systems thinking paradigm. The paradigm is a holistic analysis of a system with the purpose of identifying elements of that system, which this research manifests and explicates. The findings of the research show that changing institutional culture is inextricably linked to the objectives of transformation. Second, the article highlights the significance of adopting the social inclusion framework, including understanding the politics and practices of social inclusion.
本文的目的是探索制度文化的架构,目的是提出一个程序化的模板,用于在南非高等教育(HE)部门实施文化变革举措。许多研究指出,体制文化变革的必要性是实施实质性和质的变革的障碍。通过文献分析,本文认为,实施与该部门人性化使命相一致的制度文化变革干预措施的问题与未能采用基于系统思维范式的社会包容方法有关。范式是对一个系统的整体分析,目的是识别该系统的要素,本研究体现和阐明了这一点。研究结果表明,制度文化的变迁与转型目标有着千丝万缕的联系。其次,文章强调了采用社会包容框架的意义,包括理解社会包容的政治和实践。

The Dis-Ease of Body-Politics: “Coronavirus” as a Racial Pandemic in Contemporary India 身体政治的疾病:“冠状病毒”作为当代印度的种族流行病

The biomedical crisis of COVID-19 in India has amplified several other crises, namely; social, cultural, communal, religious, geographical, economic, political, racial and gender. It is important to note that these crises are not new – theywere already socio-culturally embedded and functional in the pre-COVID-19 era. With the inception of COVID-19, these crises have been further aggravated through the re-configuration and re-systematisation of various forms of social, cultural, political, economic, racial, geographical, religious and economic violence. With respect to these arguments, this commentary focuses on how the outbreak of COVID-19 has led to an alarming rise in racial hatred against the residents of Northeast India in the contemporary era. Through socio-historically analysing the problematic rise of racial hatred, the commentary also identifies the various ways through which the pandemic of COVID-19 is not only functioning as a disease, but also as a “dis-ease” of body-politics and racism.
2019冠状病毒病在印度的生物医学危机放大了其他几个危机,即;社会的、文化的、社区的、宗教的、地理的、经济的、政治的、种族的和性别的。必须指出的是,这些危机并不新鲜——在2019冠状病毒病前的时代,它们已经根植于社会文化并发挥作用。随着2019冠状病毒病的爆发,各种形式的社会、文化、政治、经济、种族、地理、宗教和经济暴力的重新配置和重新系统化进一步加剧了这些危机。针对这些观点,本文重点关注新冠肺炎疫情的爆发如何导致当代针对印度东北部居民的种族仇恨以惊人的速度上升。通过对种族仇恨上升问题的社会历史分析,评论还确定了COVID-19大流行不仅作为一种疾病,而且作为身体政治和种族主义的“疾病”发挥作用的各种方式。

Zoonosis and the Polis: COVID-19 and Frantz Fanon's Critique of the Modern Colony 人畜共患病与城邦:COVID-19与弗朗茨·法农对现代殖民地的批判
Pub Date : 1900-01-01 DOI: 10.13169/intecritdivestud.4.1.0058
Emily Anne Parker
The critiques of modernity by Bruno Latour and Amitav Ghosh are important for understanding the global pandemic of COVID-19 as well as modern responses to it. In spite of this importance, each maintains a commitment to the polis and “the body” – a falsely universal body that opposes itself to others. I seek to extend their critique while also addressing the polis. In this essay, I argue that a helpful response is anticipated by French philosopher and decolonial psychiatrist Frantz Fanon. In The wretched of the Earth, Fanon’s critique of the Manichaean distinctions between human and earthly agency, human and body, human and animal is the framework for his understanding of the significance of colonial wartime “cortico-visceral disorders.” The colony is (1) a manifestation on the part of the European polis of disgust for blackness, for animality, the agency of soil, the powers of the sun, for disability that the colony itself often causes and always denies, and (2) simultaneously an effort to install a supposedly nonracialized, non-disabled man, a universal body, and unilateral agency. A Fanonian response to the global pandemic and climate crisis would thus appreciate the myriad crises that arise precisely when humanity is thought to be the opposite of Earth.
布鲁诺·拉图尔(Bruno Latour)和阿米塔夫·高什(Amitav Ghosh)对现代性的批评对于理解COVID-19全球大流行以及现代人对其的反应非常重要。尽管如此重要,每个人都对城邦和“身体”——一个与他人对立的虚假的普遍身体——保持着承诺。我试图扩展他们的批判,同时也谈到城邦。在这篇文章中,我认为法国哲学家和非殖民化精神病学家弗朗茨·法农(Frantz Fanon)预计会有一个有益的回应。在《悲惨的地球》一书中,法农对摩尼教中人类与世俗机构、人类与身体、人类与动物之间的区别的批判,是他理解殖民战争时期“皮质-内脏紊乱”重要性的框架。殖民地是(1)欧洲城邦对黑暗、对动物、对土壤的代理、对太阳的力量、对殖民地本身经常造成和总是否认的残疾的厌恶的表现,(2)同时也是一种努力,以建立一个所谓的非种族化、非残疾的人,一个普遍的整体,一个单方面的代理。因此,对全球流行病和气候危机的Fanonian式反应将会理解当人类被认为与地球相反时出现的无数危机。

Students as Producers, Not Consumers? 学生是生产者,而不是消费者?
Pub Date : 1900-01-01 DOI: 10.13169/intecritdivestud.4.2.0081
J. Auerbach
This paper reflects on lessons learned about contemporary teaching at two very different universities located in Mauritius and South Africa. Thinking with digital capabilities as a crucial dimension of transformation, it traces the evolution of a series of commitments to pedagogy first written up in a Conversation article in 2017, which emphasised the need for undergraduate students to actively contribute to global discourses through both academic and non-academic knowledge production. This paper reflects on insights gained through assignments based on knowledge production, which included social media interactions, academic writing practice and contributions to an ongoing project entitled the Archive of Kindness. These insights call for the development of new curricula-based interventions pertaining to digital capabilities. The paper elaborates upon these digital literacies in light of Sushona Zuboff’s work on the paradigm of surveillance capitalism, expanding this to explore its implications for students located in the global south. It develops the notion of “digital capabilities” as a missing component of transformational discourse and practice, arguing that, without the conscious development of digital capabilities, ontological transformation will be critically stymied.
本文反思了毛里求斯和南非两所截然不同的大学的当代教学经验。该报告将数字能力视为转型的一个关键维度,追溯了2017年《对话》(Conversation)一篇文章中首次提出的一系列教育学承诺的演变,强调本科生需要通过学术和非学术知识生产积极为全球话语做出贡献。本文反映了通过基于知识生产的作业获得的见解,其中包括社交媒体互动,学术写作实践以及对正在进行的名为“善良档案”的项目的贡献。这些见解要求开发与数字能力相关的基于新课程的干预措施。本文根据Sushona Zuboff关于监控资本主义范式的研究,详细阐述了这些数字素养,并将其扩展到探索其对全球南方学生的影响。它将“数字能力”的概念发展为转型话语和实践中缺失的组成部分,认为如果没有数字能力的有意识发展,本体论转型将受到严重阻碍。

The Subtleties of Racism in the South African Workplace 南非职场种族主义的微妙之处
Pub Date : 1900-01-01 DOI: 10.13169/intecritdivestud.3.1.0025
Mokoena
South Africa is a country known for its history of racial discrimination in addition to its increasingly diverse society, values and socio-economic contexts. This diversity and the acceptance thereof were hard won by many South Africans during the struggle against the brutality of the apartheid regime. What is also clear from interactions between many South Africans is that much of the racism which existed in apartheid South Africa is unfortunately not a thing of the past.
南非是一个以其日益多样化的社会、价值观和社会经济背景之外的种族歧视历史而闻名的国家。这种多样性及其被接受是许多南非人在反对种族隔离政权野蛮行径的斗争中来之不易的。从许多南非人之间的互动中还可以清楚地看到,在南非种族隔离时期存在的许多种族主义不幸已不再是过去的事情。

Workplace Bullying and Its Implications for Gender Transformation in the South African Higher Education Sector 工作场所欺凌及其对南非高等教育部门性别转型的影响
Pub Date : 1900-01-01 DOI: 10.13169/intecritdivestud.4.2.0061

While transformation in the higher education sector in South Africa has been the subject of intensive research since 1994, few studies have explored the link between workplace bullying and transformation. Whereas workplace bullying has drawn researchers’ attention for decades, it is only recently that scholars have started to interrogate the phenomenon through the intersectional lens. This paper employs intersectionality to explore women academics’ experiences of workplace bullying and to suggest links between workplace bullying and gender transformation in the higher education sector in South Africa. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with a cross-section of 25 women academics who had experienced workplace bullying. As part of data triangulation, four union representatives and three human resources practitioners were also interviewed. The study’s main findings indicate that gender, race and class mediate women academics’ experiences of workplace bullying. In historically White universities, African, Coloured and Indian women academics, particularly those from working-class backgrounds, are more likely to be bullied, by seniors, peers, administrators and students. For White women academics, race ameliorates their workplace bullying experiences. The simultaneous effects of race, gender and class derail transformation as members of previously disadvantaged groups either remain stuck in junior academic positions, or exit the sector.
虽然自1994年以来,南非高等教育部门的转型一直是深入研究的主题,但很少有研究探讨工作场所欺凌与转型之间的联系。虽然职场欺凌已经引起了研究者们几十年的关注,但直到最近,学者们才开始通过交叉视角来审视这一现象。本文采用交叉性来探讨女性学者的工作场所欺凌经历,并提出南非高等教育部门工作场所欺凌与性别转型之间的联系。研究人员对25名经历过职场欺凌的女学者进行了半结构化访谈。作为数据三角测量的一部分,我们还采访了四名工会代表和三名人力资源从业人员。该研究的主要发现表明,性别、种族和阶级会影响女性学者对职场欺凌的经历。在传统的白人大学里,非洲裔、有色人种和印度裔女性学者,尤其是那些来自工人阶级背景的女性学者,更容易受到前辈、同龄人、管理人员和学生的欺负。对于白人女性学者来说,种族可以改善她们的职场欺凌经历。种族、性别和阶级的同时影响阻碍了转型,因为以前处于不利地位的群体的成员要么被困在初级学术职位上,要么退出这个领域。

Practitioner’s Perspectives on a National South African Higher Education Institution Policy Framework Mitigating Gender-Based Violence at a South African University 从业者对南非国家高等教育机构政策框架的看法,在南非大学减轻基于性别的暴力

Gender-based violence (GBV) is a crime that violates the right to life, equality, human dignity, freedom and security of a person (South African Constitution, Act No 108 of 1996). The prevention and management of GBV is a critical transformation imperative and has in recent years (2014 to 2021) come under the spotlight at South African universities. The National Department of Higher Education and Training (DHET) developed a policy framework to guide post-school education and training institutions to address GBV in 2020.This article is a practitioner’s assessment and reflection of how the DHET policy framework on GBV can be implemented at Stellenbosch University, a public higher education institution (HEI) in South Africa. We look at how to integrate recommendations made in the GBV policy framework at South African universities and what are the current constraints that throttle GBV interventions. We reflect on existing mechanisms and policy recommendations that still need to be operationalised to effectively respond to GBV at universities. This article further assesses how institutional policy development, professional administrative and support services, and senior leadership structures can be leveraged to include, and efficiently implement, some of the GBV policy framework recommendations to address GBV at HEIs and in South Africa more broadly.
基于性别的暴力(GBV)是一种侵犯生命权、平等权、人的尊严、自由和人身安全的犯罪(南非宪法,1996年第108号法案)。预防和管理性别暴力是一项至关重要的转型任务,近年来(2014年至2021年)成为南非大学关注的焦点。国家高等教育和培训部(DHET)制定了一个政策框架,指导学校后教育和培训机构在2020年解决性别暴力问题。这篇文章是一个实践者对如何在南非公立高等教育机构(HEI) Stellenbosch大学实施DHET关于性别暴力的政策框架的评估和反思。我们着眼于如何在南非大学整合性别暴力政策框架中提出的建议,以及目前阻碍性别暴力干预的制约因素是什么。我们反思了现有机制和政策建议,这些机制和政策建议仍需付诸实施,以有效应对大学中的性别暴力问题。本文进一步评估了如何利用机构政策制定、专业行政和支持服务以及高级领导结构来纳入并有效实施一些性别暴力政策框架建议,从而在高等教育机构和南非更广泛地解决性别暴力问题。
