Religion

To the best of my fractured understanding, it has to do with mass hysteria and vigilantism. Coincidentally, it may even be related to gang stalking, that I now find referred to below.
Bücher Effect is all over the Internet—in German. And English? I actually paged down in Google to find something about the Bücher Effect in English, but to no effect whatsoever.
The Bücher Effect is in the air. And we need to find out about it.
I could translate French to English, but not German. Surely someone on staff should at least look into it.

  • Carceral feminism - “Carceral Feminism” is the blending of sex, gender, and carceral politics, that is, feminist social justice work achieved via the threat of incarceration. The term is first defined in the 2007 article “The Sexual Politics of ‘New Abolitionism’” by Barnard College professor Elizabeth Bernstein as “the commitment of abolitionist feminist activists to a law and order agenda” ("Sexual Politics" 143), with “abolitionist” referring to anti-trafficking efforts by evangelicals and secular feminist activists whose discourse compares modern day “sexual slavery” to the transatlantic slave trade. Bernstein primarily discusses carceral feminism as it relates to anti-trafficking campaigns and discourse, which often treat “social justice as criminal justice, and of punitive systems of control as the best motivational deterrents for men’s bad behavior” ("Militarized Humanitarianism" 58). Much of the global conversation on anti-trafficking efforts revolves around criminalizing and decriminalizing aspects of sex work in order to best curtail the sex trafficking industry, rather than address the social and economic factors that put women and children at risk of becoming victims of trafficking. This pulls focus away from the neoliberal institutions (such as big businesses and the police themselves), and “the responsibility for slavery is shifted from structural factors and dominant institutions onto individual, deviant men” ("Sexual Politics" 144). Feminists have joined forces with evangelical activists and law makers in order to push punitive approaches to humanitarian causes, under the guise of working towards gender equality and protecting family values.

LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender)

  • I'd like a way to compare different "gay libel" cases that have been lodged, from Oscar Wilde to Tom Cruise to Liberace to Robbie Williams. I'm considering making a category, but the category name Gay Libel Cases seems anachronistic since the word "gay" wasn't used that way in Wilde's time. I'm also expecting pushback on linking gay libel cases which involved people later outed, like Oscar Wilde and Liberace, with gay libel cases involving straight people, like Tom Cruise and Robbie Williams. What do people think would be the best wording for a category like this to avoid offense & also avoid an overly long Category name? Markwiki (talk) 00:04, 25 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
