Reviews

“This volume brings together a collection of diverse and original texts from a stunning array of authors who reveal the importance of understanding technodomination from the perspective of feminist and queer engagements with domination. They each start from and engage with one line of Donna J. Haraway’s ‘Informatics of Domination’ chart, updating its content and form while relating it to contemporary developments. Specialists in feminist studies, science and technology studies, and new media studies will all welcome this book and its intellectual adventurousness.” - Wendy Hui Kyong Chun, author of (Discriminating Data: Correlation, Neighborhoods, and the New Politics of Recognition) “Linking Donna J. Haraway’s ‘Informatics of Domination’ chart to an array of contemporary bodily, ecological, sociotechnical, and expressive contexts, this collection introduces fresh perspectives and unfurls a variety of feminist, queer, postcolonial, biopolitical, and environmental agendas. Its assemblage of eclectic works deconstructs and questions the scientific authority of the diagram/chart as a form and opens up critical space, serving as an important model of experimental multidisciplinary scholarly intervention.” - Lisa Parks, Distinguished Professor of Film and Media Studies, University of California, Santa Barbara
