Artificial Intelligence and the Production of Judicial Truth
The aim of this paper is to present artificial intelligence (AI) as an organ with a role in the production of judicial truth, expanding its objects, changing its procedures and reshaping the distribution of agencies within the judicial organism. To this end, it builds on Michel Foucault's work on the procedures of truth production and the three subject forms involved: operator, spectator and object. This is then complemented by the general organo…
‘We are the women who clean and the structural base of the hotel’
The Spanish room attendants’ movement, known as ‘Las Kellys’, has directly challenged hotel owners, unions and local governments. Its actions and results have generated a growing interest in the academic literature on labour and organizations, because it presents as a social phenomenon which seems to sidestep the usual key actions of similar movements. As this case is still very new, there are not yet any systematic academic studies explaining ho…
Diffusion of intersectionality across contemporary Spanish activism
Intersectional politics has been widely associated with progressive Millennial activists. Accordingly, most social movement research focuses on progressive movements that adopt intersectionality as a guiding framework for organisation and mobilisation, mainly feminist, reproductive justice, LGBTQ and other movements spearheaded by university-educated Millennials. In contrast to most studies, we conduct a qualitative digital ethnography of Las Kel…
Cleaning guest rooms as care work? Politicization of hotel housekeeping in the Las Kellys movement
The literature on labour conflict in the field of paid care work deals primarily with highly feminized occupations that fit in with the International Labour Organization’s (ILO) characterization of the care workforce, such as nurses, domestic workers and childcare providers. We focus instead on room attendants: a highly feminized occupational group that lies beyond the scope of the care economy defined by the ILO. Following this thread, we look i…
Cosmoética y vacunas contra la Covid-19. Más allá de la propuesta cosmopolítica
La gestión de la pandemia de COVID-19 por parte de los países occidentales es uno de los temas más controvertidos de los estudios sociales actuales. Uno de los conceptos centrales para analizar la ordenación de la gestión de la pandemia es el de Cosmopolítica, ya que nos permite ampliar la comprensión de la política para incluir a los ciudadanos, a los seres vivos no humanos, a los elementos terrestres y al propio SARS-CoV-2. Pero como argumentam…
Invisible Room Attendants
Outsourced room attendants have been described as invisible to both guests and management. However, room attendants in Spain have managed to create a movement called Las Kellys, which has raised their visibility and earned them respect in society. The article questions how outsourcing leads to the invisibility of room attendants in Spain and how Las Kellys renders them visible. Based on a study conducted with room attendants who were working at h…
Las Kellys son las que limpian’
In this qualitative study, we focus on Las Kellys, a Spanish movement of room attendants who have mobilised against labour precarisation and social devaluation, to address two challenges: (1) to characterise the role of social media in the construction and politicisation of collective identity as a stepping stone to mobilisation, and (2) to describe the lines of interplay between online politicisation of collective identity and other mobilisation…
Biopolitics and speculative objects in Chilean health projects
Biopolitics' is a much-used concept in recent academic literature. One of its main fields of application is in the analysis of public health projects. This article analyses the national Explicit Health Guarantees project in Chile from that perspective. However, we criticize the standard invocation of 'biopolitics' by observing that such public health projects require technoscientific operations that establish truths and regimes of obligation for …
Dark times for cosmopolitanism? An ethical framework to address private agri‐food governance and planetary stewardship
The scholarly tradition of cosmopolitanism (illustrated by the old saying, “I am a citizen of the world”) offers important insights into the examination of agri‐food multinational corporations (MNCs) as powerful global actors. Acknowledging that agriculture is the business sector with the highest planetary environmental impact, in this paper, we advance existing discussions around cosmopolitanism and the normative implications of considering agri…

Resisting Patriarchal Cultures
This article explores the role of resistance as a micro-political practice carried out by female Spanish teleworkers. Drawing on a qualitative study focused on female workers in different cities in Spain, we conceive telework as a labour logic in which resistance is the cornerstone of meaning and subjectivity creation. Micro-practices of resistance are analysed following de Certeau's notion of tactics and strategies, honing in on the limitations,…
Dilemas ideológicos y vida cotidiana
Nuestro estudio propone los dilemas ideológicos como herramienta conceptual y de investigación para examinar las tensiones y contradicciones que definen nuestra vida cotidiana. En ese sentido, presentamos una investigación cualitativa y cuyo objeto de análisis es la experiencia laboral cotidiana de mujeres españolas teletrabajadoras que tienen a su cargo personas dependientes. El artículo señala que las contradicciones, paradojas y tensiones entr…
Movimiento y regímenes de vitalidad. La nueva organización de la vida en la biomedicina
This paper puts forward that the massive use of protocols in biomedicine has created a new kind of materiality for pathology. This is very well depicted by the notion of 'potential object' coined by A.N.Whitehead. Potential objects are a complete and heterogeneous ordering of life. We will call to these orderings, resulting from the shaping of such potential objects, regimes of vitality. They establish different scales of life, actors and the rel…
Teletrabajo y regímenes de compromiso
This paper puts forward a research on women and telework that analyzes their own explanations about their work. This analysis recovers the notion of pragmatic regimes of engagement developed by Luc Boltanski and Lauren Thévenot. This concept refers to the common mechanisms that people unfold in public in order to grasp events, persons and objects in a frame of intelligibility. Three axes define this notion: a) the relationship with the material w…

The production of commitment and thesense of reality in virtual space
There is an significant literature in the social sciences about the internet. A lot of it is dedicated to understanding interaction in virtual spaces like forums, chats, etc. Such analyses represent two different approaches. In the first approach, authors are concerned to clarify the limitations that virtual spaces put on interactional phenomena. In these cases the object of study is always face-to-face interaction. The second approach is to trea…
