‘Assessing my risk and that of my whānau is my right’
Risk identification has been at the heart of media coverage of the COVID-19 pandemic.Less consideration has been paid to the way that the media itself has (re)produced these risk categories, and how this has changed over the course of the pandemic. The aim of this article is to understand how risk has been constructed in the Aotearoa, New Zealand news media over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic. This paper reports findings from a longitudinal …
Older People’s Understandings and Experiences of Using Health and Social Care Services under Covid‐19 Lockdown Restrictions in Aotearoa, New Zealand
Internationally, the COVID‐19 pandemic resulted in changes to services as governments funneled health‐related funding and resources into stopping the spread of COVID‐19. At the same time, older people were singled out as an “at‐risk” group, which prompted caution from both older people and governments to limit their exposure to COVID‐19. It remains unclear what the impact this has had on older people’s routine health and social care access, and h…
Intergenerational Tension or Cohesion during the Covid-19 Pandemic
This paper examines older people’s experiences of intergenerational interaction during the first COVID-19 lockdown in Aotearoa, New Zealand (NZ). This paper presents an analysis of a letter-writing study with older people (mean = 77 years) living in NZ. A total of 760 letters were received from 870 participants. A sub-sample of 412 letters focused on intergenerational interaction were analyzed thematically. This analysis presents a mostly positiv…

Doing ‘technological time’ in a pediatric hemodialysis unit
Foucault, ugly ducklings, and technoswans
Using a densely constructed ethnographic subject, Josephine, the “ugly duckling,” I use Foucault’s complex notion of an Apparatus to examine how Josephine’s decision to have weight-loss surgery is understandable even though it permanently destroys her normally functioning digestive system. I try to illuminate how the decision is deeply embedded in extraordinarily complex neoliberal biopolitical structures and dynamics of fat hatred camouflaged by…

Chapter Two. Generic Ethics And The Problem Of Badness In Pindar
This chapter explores the rubric of ?badness? in terms of some familiar features of the genre of Pindaric epinician. It examines the constraints this genre puts on the construction of badness. Praise poetry is obviously meant to praise, as the victor emerges from a dark background to stand in Pindar?s famous god-given gleam. The chapter explores the extent to which Pindar can be assimilated to aristocratic ethics as expressed in the poetry of The…

An Athenian Dedication to Herakles at Panopeus
A Trophy from the Battle of Chaironeia of 86 B.C
In this paper we report the discovery of the remains of a trophy commemorating the victory of the Roman general Sulla over the forces of Mithradates VI near Chaironeia in 86 B.C. These remains include an inscribed rectangular base with a thick torus molding and part of a smooth tapering shaft, all in whitish-gray marble. The inscription on the base corresponds closely to an inscription quoted by Plutarch and allows the monument to be securely ide…
Women and the Knife
The paper identifies the phenomenal rise of increasingly invasive forms of elective cosmetic surgery targeted primarily at women and explores its significance in the context of contemporary biotechnology. A Foucauldian analysis of the significance of the normalization of technologized women's bodies is argued for. Three “Paradoxes of Choice” affecting women who “elect” cosmetic surgery are examined. Finally, two Utopian feminist political respons…
Romantic Love, Altruism, and Self‐Respect
I examine Beauvoir's moral assessment of Romantic Love in The Second Sex . I first set out Beauvoir's central philosophical assumptions concerning the nature and situations of women, setting the framework for her analysis of the intersubjective dynamic which constitutes the phenomenology of romantic loving. In this process four double‐bind paradoxes are generated which can lead, ultimately, to servility in the woman who loves. In a separate analy…
