Impasse & Attachment
Not No Place, Jeppe on a Friday and representing Joburg
Shannon Walsh et Arya Lalloo ont coréalisé le film Jeppe on a Friday (2013), un documentaire sur la vie dans le quartier de Jeppestown à Johannesburg. Bettina Malcomess et Dorothee Kreutzfeldt ont coécrit un livre sur Johannesburg intitulé Not No Place (Jacana Media, 2013). Ce qui suit est une transcription éditée d’une conversation sur le processus de réalisation du documentaire et du livre, publiée à l’occasion des 10 ans de leur parution ; ell…
Marx, subsumption and the critique of innovation
This paper advances a Marxist approach to the critical study of innovation. Such an approach offers alternative analytical tools for understanding the social and political aspects of innovation that are increasingly coming into focus within academic and practitioner fields. After outlining the emerging field of critical innovation studies and its key concerns, I turn to the question of how a Marxist critique differs from other forms of critical s…
A Data Driven Approach to Evaluating and Improving Judicial Decision-Making
Media Coverage of the Mental Health of Men and Boys
Under the Umbrella
In September 2014, students and Hong Kong citizens took to the streets demanding universal suffrage. Cell phones and video cameras in hand, amateur student filmmakers were some of the first to capture the police tear-gassing young people that brought the city to its feet. Young people were positioning themselves as storytellers and knowledge producers on the streets. How has this restructured hierarchy of knowledge production often found in unive…
Critiquing the politics of participatory video and the dangerous romance of liberalism
In this article I argue that participatory video must acknowledge its often technocratic, liberal presumptions, and take a more critical look at the political underpinnings of ‘empowerment’ and ‘voice’. I am interested in how we can use participatory video while resisting the romance of community, seeing beyond short‐term individualist approaches towards a longer‐term collective project of social justice. A reflexive approach to how power and age…

Addressing sexual violence and rape culture
While girl-led projects that address sexual violence can empower girls to seek consent and to understand their right to safety, this alone cannot deal with the reality of everyday violence. While girls are told to empower themselves and to voice their concerns, the surrounding cultural environment often reinforces silence, dismissal and retribution towards women who speak out. Men and boys need to be part of the solution. This briefing investigat…
The Philosopher and His Poor
We won't move’
What happens when the Right to the City is understood as the right to reoccupy the inner city by middle-class suburbanites? In the self-styled Maboneng Precinct in Johannesburg, the writing is on the wall, literally. Graffiti reading, ‘We won't move’ on the roof of Revolution House begins to tell the story of hipster-styled urban gentrification in the city. These processes force a radical reinvention of the meaning of the right to the city, of ce…
“We are prepared to die on this land”
Uncomfortable Collaborations’
This article deconstructs the problematic way the ‘Poor’ are represented by the intellectual ‘Left’ as a fixed, virtuous subject. Even while this fixed identity is actively mobilised by people themselves to gain symbolic and real power, I argue that the philosopher's fixation on the singular subjectivity of the oppressed confines the ‘Poor’ to their very subjugation. Instead, I propose a more nuanced understanding of how agency and oppression occ…
I'm too young to die’
In the South African urban areas of Atlantis and Khayelitsha, men and boys see gang membership and violence (including gang-related violence) as part of 'being a man'. In this context, life itself is perilous and vulnerable. This article draws on the narratives of boys about their lives, and explores some key questions relating to gender, development and HIV. These include: how are men's and boys' ideas about sexuality created, and what does this…
Visualizing the politics of innocence in the age of Aids
We are concerned with the ways in which social constructions of age can contribute to reducing or exacerbating the vulnerability of young people, and for this reason we refer to the issue as one of ‘the politics of innocence’. The focus of this paper is on gender, youth and HIV prevention/AIDS awareness in the context of South Africa and investigates the uses (and abuses) of images of ‘childhood’, ‘youth’ and ‘adolescence’ in the age of AIDS. Not…
