Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Dear Reader, The Queer Judgments Project is an initiative that evolved from disparate conversations between the current co-editors about how legal judgments related to sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, and sex characteristics could have been written in different terms in light of relevant legal frameworks. This project brings together friends, colleagues, scholars, and activists who are interested in improving and challenging the law and its application to make life better for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, queer and other minoritized people and communities.This edited collection is the first output of the project and the pages of this book re-imagine, re-write and re-invent judgments, from queer and other complementing perspectives. With an international reach and multi-disciplinary scope, this edited collection invites you to a queer dance through 26 judgments and commentaries.We invite you to read us queerly and move these conversations with us!

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Geo-Materializing the Legal Imaginary examines how land once rendered 'null' was later claimed as 'full', and how these transformations continue to shape our imaginaries on political authority, identity, societal organization, governing systems, and the ways we conceive of land. Rana Goeksu traces the juridical geographies of nullification and dispossession through a geohistorical connection between British colonial dispossession in Australia and the Australian state's territorial claims to 42% of Antarctica, exploring the role of geospatial techniques and their ideological geo-graphing in producing these imaginaries. Building on Lefebvre's theory of space production and engaging Povinelli, Yusoff, and Fanon, Goeksu reframes ecological 'destruction', 'crisis', and 'death' as ontological resistance to colonial and capitalist imaginaries and their ideologically produced geographies, arguing that the political power of geo-materialities and their capacities for world- and system-making do not seek liberal emancipatory resolution, yet decisively correspond to it.Scholars and advanced students in critical legal theory, political geography, postcolonial studies, and environmental humanities; researchers with interests in settler colonialism, Antarctic governance, and spatial theory.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. As part of the aim to amplify those otherwise silenced voices, particularly the range of experiences of students of colour in the academy, this collection is ground breaking in embodying what has been an ostensible and deliberate collaboration and co-production of knowledge between students and academics of colour. It was inspired by an institutionally funded research project in 2018-2019 'Decolonise the Curriculum', at the University of Kent and presents a Kaleidoscope for Decolonising a university. It operationalises conceptual thinking, fed into expressions of national and international student-led movements as well as others in the UK and elsewhere including: Why is my curriculum White?; Decolonise SOAS; Reclaim Harvard Law School (RHLS); #LeopoldMustFallQM; and Why isn't my professor Black? What they have in common is that they seek to unveil colonialism, racism, sexism, ageism and its intersectional inequalities with other (protected) characteristics, whilst also doing the structural labour towards the utopia of dismantling white supremacy in the academy. The success of this project lies in the unearthing of different formations of inequality in the academy. The perspectives presented in this book all share a common theme of decolonisation of the university. These are some of the reverberations that concern us. Our sincere hope is that it will inspire students to enact change no matter how small or large as part of their empowerment including hold their institutions to account to eliminate inequality and injustice in all formats.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. We're Nobody's Children: David Bowie and Existentialism brings existentialist philosophy (atheistic and Christian) to life through the artistic life of David Bowie. Working with Soren Kierkegaard, Friedrich Nietzsche, Martin Heidegger, Jean-Paul Sartre, Albert Camus, and Simone Weil, it both explains different existentialist ideas (authenticity, anxiety, ethics, spirituality and death) and applies them to Bowie. In doing so, it sharpens our understanding of these ideas and of tensions both within existentialism and between it and some other philosophical approaches. In particular, it explores what it means to live an existentially authentic life, and it makes the case that Bowie, while he certainly 'fell' at times, can be understood as an exemplar of such a life. For David Bowie's life and work can be read as a meditation on themes of alienation, loneliness, abandonment, fear, anxiety, meaninglessness, freedom and mortality.
