Jim Crow's Legacy shows the lasting impact of segregation on the lives of African Americans who lived through it, as well as its impact on future generations.

Seven Stories of Threatening Speech: Women's Suffrage Meets Machine Code
ISBN: 9780472035281 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 298 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Ruth A. Miller demonstrates the potential of taking nonhuman linguistic activity such as the running of machine code as an analytical model. Via a lively discussion of 19th-century pro- and antisuffragists, Miller tells a new computational story in which language becomes a thing that executes physically or mechanically through systems, networks, and environments, rather than a form for human recognition or representation. Language might be better understood as something that operates but never communicates, that sorts, stores, or reproduces information but never transmits meaning. Miller...

Law in Crisis: The Ecstatic Subject of Natural Disaster
ISBN: 9780804762564 / Angielski / Twarda / 2009 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Taking natural disaster as the political and legal norm is uncommon. Taking a person who has become unstable and irrational during a disaster as the starting point for legal analysis is equally uncommon. Nonetheless, in Law in Crisis Ruth Miller makes the unsettling case that the law demands an ecstatic subject and that natural disaster is the endpoint to law. Developing an idiosyncratic but compelling new theory of legal and political existence, Miller challenges existing arguments that, whether valedictory or critical, have posited the rational, bounded self as the normative subject...

The Limits of Bodily Integrity: Abortion, Adultery, and Rape Legislation in Comparative Perspective
ISBN: 9780754670612 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This volume argues that legislation on abortion, adultery, and rape has been central to the formation of the modern citizen. The author draws on rights literature, bio-political scholarship, and a gender-studies perspective as a foundation for rethinking the sovereign relationship. In approaching the politicization of reproductive space from this direction, the study resituates the role of rights and rights-granting within the sovereign relationship. A second theme running throughout the book explores the international implications of these arguments and addresses the role of abortion,...

Snarl: In Defense of Stalled Traffic and Faulty Networks
ISBN: 9780472036219 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Ruth A. Miller excavates a centuries-old history of nonhuman and nonbiological constitutional engagement and outlines a robust mechanical democracy that challenges existing theories of liberal and human political participation. Drawing on an eclectic set of legal, political, and automotive texts from France, Turkey, and the United States, she proposes a radical mechanical re-articulation of three of the most basic principles of democracy: vitality, mobility, and liberty. Rather than defending a grand theory of materialist or posthumanist politics, or addressing abstract... Ruth A.

The Biopolitics of Embryos and Alphabets: A Reproductive History of the Nonhuman
ISBN: 9780190638368 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 200 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Biopolitics and posthumanism have been passe theories in the academy for a while now, standing on the unfashionable side of the fault line between biology and liberal thought. These days, if people invoke them, they do so a bit apologetically. But, as Ruth Miller argues, we should not be so quick to relegate these terms to the scholarly dustbin. This is because they can help to explain an increasingly important (and contested) influence in modern democratic politics-that of nostalgia. Nostalgia is another somewhat embarrassing concept for the academy. It is that wistful sense of longing for...
