摘要

ABSTRACT:How are young women's access to and the use of mobile media technologies negotiated and distributed at the urban margins of the tech revolution?本文探讨了生活在南非开普敦郊区乡镇地区的女性对合法使用手机的疑问和争议。我引入了 "亲密信息政治学 "这一概念,以强调手机是如何被赋予意义的,又是如何通过亲密关系和性别化的知识与空间归属理想进行谈判的,这些都浓缩在 "体面"(ordentlikheid)这一概念中。关注性别化获取和使用数字媒体的历史政治进程和规模,能让研究人员认识到主权和权力问题,而不仅仅是关于性别赋权的技术乐观主义论述,并关注通过媒体管理信息和知识的充满争议、片面和模糊的过程。这篇文章介绍了在南非卡普斯塔德市的乡镇地区,年轻女性如何在潮湿的环境中使用电话。我提出了 "亲密信息政治学 "的概念,以解释自我决定的意义是如何通过亲密关系、知识的性别理想和空间归属感来赋予和协商的,并将其概括为 "有序性 "的理念。解决历史性的政治问题和平衡数字媒体的性别访问与使用,从来都是对研究者的挑战,即在反神学乐观主义的话语之外,承认对主权和性别赋权权利的要求,并认识到通过媒体治理情报和知识的珍视、片面和模糊的问题。

The Intimate Infopolitics of Township Sociality in Cape Town: Mobile Phones, Mothers, and Respectability
ABSTRACT:How are young women’s access to and the use of mobile media technologies negotiated and distributed at the urban margins of the tech revolution? This article explores questions and contestations of the legitimate use of phones among women living in township areas on the outskirts of Cape Town, South Africa. I introduce the concept of “intimate infopolitics” to highlight how mobile phones are given meaning and negotiated by and through intimate relations and gendered ideals of knowledge and spatial belonging, condensed in the idea of ordentlikheid (respectability). Paying attention to historical political processes and scale in the gendered access and use of digital media invites researchers to recognize questions of sovereignty and power beyond tech-optimistic discourses on gendered empowerment, and to follow the fraught, partial, and ambiguous processes of managing information and knowledge through media.Hoe word jong vroue se toegang tot en die gebruik van mobiele mediategnologieë onderhandel en versprei by die stedelike grense van die tegnologierevolusie? Hierdie artikel ondersoek vrae en betwistings oor die wettige gebruik van telefone onder vroue wat in township-gebiede aan die buitewyke van Kaapstad, Suid-Afrika woon. Ek stel die konsep van “intieme infopolitiek” bekend om uit te lig hoe selfone betekenis gegee word en onderhandel word deur en deur intieme verhoudings en geslagsideale van kennis en ruimtelike behoort, saamgevat in die idee van ordentlikheid. Aandag te gee aan historiese politieke prosesse en skaal in die geslagtelike toegang en gebruik van digitale media nooi navorsers uit om vrae oor soewereiniteit en mag buite tegnologie-optimistiese diskoerse oor geslagsbemagtiging te erken, en om die belaaide, gedeeltelike en dubbelsinnige prosesse van die bestuur van inligting en kennis deur middel van media.
