ABSTRACT This article points to the paradox in feminist citation practices. It provides a brief overview of the key issues at stake in feminist citational practices. By highlighting the ways in which the logic of territoriality, authority and property continues to inform the mood and mode of moralistic repair, it cautions again the reification of certain racialised and gendered bodies as the remedy, ground and supplement for feminist research ethics. Thinking through the figure of the (bio)degradable, this article asks whether it is possible to consider feminist citation as use/less.

ABSTRACT Given the recent surge of research about sexual violence, it is timely to revisit the role of ethics in this field. This article examines two key frameworks which govern ethics in sexual violence research: institutional risk management and trauma discourse. While recognising the importance of these frameworks, we argue that they share a narrow conceptualisation of the potential harms of sexual violence research. Drawing on the legacy of decades of feminist research on sexual violence, we call for a deeper engagement with ethical and epistemological questions of knowledge, positionality and power. We argue that researchers need to consider the broader social and political contexts that shape survivors’ lives and experiences of disclosure in undertaking ethical research. Sexual violence researchers must also consider the potential harms of their research on marginalised communities – from questioning who is included in research, to the implications of the responses to violence advocated for. Utilising insights from feminist, critical and intersectional traditions – and reflections on our own experiences as sexual violence researchers – we argue for ethical considerations to extend beyond risk management and medicalised trauma frameworks.

ABSTRACT This article reflects on the author’s efforts to center friendship and compassion as in research that is highly personal and intimate, as well as on the ways that friendship and compassion, as research values, can sit in tension with university research ethics board (REB) approval processes. The article includes three research case studies to explore how procedural ethics review by REBs overlooks certain types of research harms and obscures the important role of relationships in determining research outcomes. The article concludes with a call for research from the heart.

ABSTRACT Much has been written about the domestic interior as a site of subjection and containment for women, both literal and metaphoric. This brief essay engages the ethical complexities resulting from the unexpected transformation of the domestic interior from a site of largely non-market exchanges into a work-from-home (WFH) and research base during the Covid-19 pandemic. The consequent enfolding of private and public life, work and family, consumerism and caregiving has been particularly complex for those whose research projects have been forced online. To explore these complexities, and within the methodological frame of ‘nomadic research’, this essay draws from feminist writings about the domestic interior as well as my own intersectional experiences of the pandemic which, while localised and personal, also resonate with those of others’ similarly wrestling work and caring from shared, and often overcrowded homes. It argues that it is from our messy bedrooms that we must confront and reimagine ethical research practices, and the often-hidden role of the domestic interior within them.

ABSTRACT Settler colonialism attempts to make invisible the labours of care that Indigenous peoples have been doing for millennia. Notably, the imposition of settler colonial ontologies-epistemologies disrupt and compromise Indigenous people’s obligations to land and ancestors (Kwaymullina, Ambelin. 2020. Living on Stolen Land. Broome: Magabala Books, 7). Kim Tallbear calls upon settler scholars to think more expansively about what counts as the benefits and risks of research (2014. “Standing With and Speaking as Faith: A Feminist-Indigenous Approach to Inquiry.” Journal of Research Practice 10 (2): 1–7. http://jrp.icaap.org/index.php/jrp/article/view/405/371, 2). She asks settler scholars to learn to ‘stand with’ a community and be willing to be altered and revise one’s stake in knowledge production (Tallbear, Kim. 2014. “Standing With and Speaking as Faith: A Feminist-Indigenous Approach to Inquiry.” Journal of Research Practice 10 (2): 1–7. http://jrp.icaap.org/index.php/jrp/article/view/405/371, 2). What does my feminist ethics of care, which strives to unsettle my settler colonial logic of knowledge production, look like? To respond, I will reflect upon a collaborative cultural revitalisation project with Wolgalu and Wiradjuri First Nations community in Brungle-Tumut (New South Wales, Australia). The social world I am imbedded in is different from that of Wolgalu/Wiradjuri colleagues. How is meaning negotiated in the encounter between settler colonial and Aboriginal practices of care and knowledge production? It’s a methodological conundrum, which requires thinking with care. Maria Puig de la Bellacasa conceptualises thinking with care as a thick, non-innocent obligation of living in interdependent worlds (2017. Matters of Care: Speculative Ethics in More than Human Worlds. Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 19). I want to practice non-innocent care.
移民殖民主义试图让土著居民几千年来所做的照料劳动隐形。值得注意的是，定居者殖民本体论-认识论的强加破坏并损害了土著人民对土地和祖先的义务(Kwaymullina, Ambelin, 2020)。生活在偷来的土地上。Kim Tallbear呼吁定居者学者更广泛地思考研究的好处和风险(2014)。“与信仰站在一起，以信仰说话:一种女权主义的本土探究方法。”科研实践学报，10(2):1-7。http://jrp.icaap.org/index.php/jrp/article/view/405/371, 2)。她要求定居者学者学会与社区“站在一起”，并愿意改变和修改自己在知识生产中的利益(Tallbear, Kim. 2014)。“与信仰站在一起，以信仰说话:一种女权主义的本土探究方法。”科研实践学报，10(2):1-7。http://jrp.icaap.org/index.php/jrp/article/view/405/371, 2).我的女权主义关怀伦理是什么样子的，它力图动摇我的知识生产的定居者殖民逻辑?为了回答这个问题，我将反思与澳大利亚新南威尔士州布伦格尔-图穆特的Wolgalu和Wiradjuri第一民族社区合作的文化复兴项目。我所处的社会世界与Wolgalu/Wiradjuri同事不同。在殖民者、殖民地居民和土著居民的关怀和知识生产实践之间的相遇中，意义是如何协商的?这是一个方法论难题，需要仔细思考。Maria Puig de la Bellacasa将谨慎思考概念化为生活在相互依存的世界中的一种厚重的、非无辜的义务(2017)。关心的问题:超越人类世界的思辨伦理。明尼阿波利斯:明尼苏达大学出版社，19)。我想练习非无辜的关怀。

ABSTRACT Citational practices function as a form of academic gatekeeping. To create a more inclusive scholarship, authors must consciously commit to embracing the contributions of all researchers, including amateurs. I base my case on Mildred Crowl Martin's biography of Donaldina Cameron, a New Zealand-born moral reformer in San Francisco's Chinatown. Martin undertook extensive original research during the late 1960s, and materials she compiled form the basis for an archival collection at Stanford University that researchers still consult today. However, Martin also admitted to incorporating a ‘few fictionalized scenes’ into her biography, and because she wrote for a popular audience, Martin omitted references in her texts. These two decisions left her vulnerable to charges of amateurism. Nonetheless, more than fifty monographs, book chapters, and journal articles from the 1980s to the present cited her biography. This success makes a fascinating case study for deriving research practices that fulfil our intellectual debts to all predecessors.

ABSTRACT In this article, we call for an inventive ethics of care-full risk for qualitative research. While methodological experimentation is widely welcomed across the social sciences, there is little talk of innovation in ethical principles and practice. We argue that research ethics is an ‘invented tradition’ (Hobsbawm 2012), which has become unquestioned convention. We take up the archiving and reuse of qualitative research data as a challenging, yet compelling, site of methodological innovation, where ethical considerations often appear as an insurmountable barrier. Ethical concerns about informed consent and anonymity, given unknown future use of data, and commitments to destroying data to protect research participants, appear undone by calls to share data. We take up the work of community archives, feminist and queer archivists and archival theory, as generative sites for developing an archival imaginary for researchers. We recount how we came to unsettle ethical practice through creating a ‘DIY academic archive’, a digital open access research archive, Clayoquot Lives: An Ecofeminist Story Web (https://clayoquotlives.sps.ed.ac.uk/). Against a paternalistic research culture of risk avoidance, we argue that care always involves risk. An inventive feminist ethic of care-full risk can resource new ethical research, reimagining research by embracing the risk of caring for data.

ABSTRACT This article explores the embodied experience of smartphone users in urban darkness, and considers how the geo-locative and network functionality of mobile media impacts upon the perception of safety and risk at night. City spaces at nighttime are often perceived as less safe, and the habitual trust we place in familiar strangers during the day can becomes imbued with caution, suspicion and fear. Women in particular are typically advised to reduce nighttime risk by remaining in well-lit, more populated areas, not travelling alone, and keeping mobile phones handy. Indeed, in contemporary popular culture, media coverage increasingly links heightened physical safety with the use of geolocative mobile media – this is evident in the reporting of the sexual assaults and murders of Jill Meagher, Eurydice Dixon, and Aiia Maasarwe in Australia, and Mollie Tibbetts in the United States. This article draws on original ethnographic data collected in Perth and Melbourne (Australia) from 2016 to 2020 to examine how mobile devices as both communicative and location-aware interfaces are used to provide women with a perceived or ‘felt’ sense of bodily safety and security, and the potential implications this has on users’ pedestrian traversal of the urban dark.

ABSTRACT This special issue of Australian Feminist Studies aims to make an interdisciplinary contribution to ongoing feminist conversations around gender, technology and trust – with a particular focus on mobile and social media debates, dialogues and empirical examples. We strategically conceptualise the contingent relationality of gender and technology and trust as a hyphenated assemblage of ‘gender-technology-trust’, and foreground the complex, ambiguous, and nuanced theoretical and empirical development and analysis of what it means to ‘trust’ in the age of ubiquitous mobile and social media. The five articles and one interview included in this special issue emerge from the global and Australian context (ranging across rural and urban settings), and brings together feminist scholars to critically engage with gender-technology-trust relations that characterise quotidian life.
