It goes without saying that feminist International Political Economy (IPE) is concerned in one way or another with the everyday – conceptualised as both a site of political struggle and a site within ...which social relations are (re)produced and governed. Given the longstanding grounding of feminist research in everyday gendered experiences, many would ask: Why do we need an explicit feminist theorisation of the everyday? After all, notions of everyday life and everyday political struggle infuse feminist analysis. This article seeks to interrogate the concept of the everyday – questioning prevalent understandings of the everyday and asking whether there is analytical and conceptual utility to be gained in articulating a specifically feminist understanding of it. We argue that a feminist political economy of the everyday can be developed in ways that push theorisations of social reproduction in new directions. We suggest that one way to do this is through the recognition that social reproduction is the everyday alongside a three-part theorisation of space, time, and violence (STV). It is an approach that we feel can play an important role in keeping IPE honest – that is, one that recognises how important gendered structures of everyday power and agency are to the conduct of everyday life within global capitalism.
This article explores how the political economy of the cultural industries changes through platformization: the penetration of economic and infrastructural extensions of online platforms into the ...web, affecting the production, distribution, and circulation of cultural content. It pursues this investigation in critical dialogue with current research in business studies, political economy, and software studies. Focusing on the production of news and games, the analysis shows that in economic terms platformization entails the replacement of two-sided market structures with complex multisided platform configurations, dominated by big platform corporations. Cultural content producers have to continuously grapple with seemingly serendipitous changes in platform governance, ranging from content curation to pricing strategies. Simultaneously, these producers are enticed by new platform services and infrastructural changes. In the process, cultural commodities become fundamentally “contingent,” that is increasingly modular in design and continuously reworked and repackaged, informed by datafied user feedback.
En este artículo se hace una revisión, actualización y ampliación de casos sobre usos del agua en Cali y el Valle del Cauca, Colombia. El análisis se realiza siguiendo un enfoque de economía política ...del ambiente: ¿cómo una sociedad con diversos valores y heterogeneidad de intereses elige sobre asuntos ambientales? La nueva información revela que el principal criterio para el control de la contaminación es la salud pública, pero se soluciona desde la institucionalidad ambiental que tiene un marcado sesgo antropocéntrico y es menos efectiva en el cuidado de la naturaleza. También, que la ciudad enfrenta riesgos ambientales altos, cuya atención busca bajar la alerta máxima sin conseguir minimizarlos. Además, el deterioro ambiental, acumulado por décadas, está en una fase de mitigación con grandes construcciones de infraestructura. Y los valores de transformación provienen de las comunidades organizadas sin la repercusión suficiente.
