Het organiseren van inclusiviteit in de dienstensector: onmogelijk?
Waar voorheen vaak de focus lag op ‘diversiteit’ en ‘diversiteitsmanagement’ (de numerieke vertegenwoordiging) in zowel de wetenschap als het bedrijfsleven, verlegt inclusie de focus naar kenmerken van de organisatie en hoe die veranderd kunnen worden zodat zowel meerderheids- als minderheidsgroepen erbij horen zonder de noodzaak tot assimilatie. In deze samenvatting licht ik de drie belangrijkste conclusies toe. Dide van Eck is in juni 2022 gepromoveerd aan de Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen, binnen Gender & Diversity studies. Ze maakt gebruikt van etnografische en creatieve onderzoeksmethoden en bouwt theoretisch voort op practice theory, new materialism en inclusion/exclusion theories.

PSICOLOGÍA HISTÓRICA Y MATERIALISMO HISTÓRICO: LA CATEGORÍA «VALOR», OBSTÁCULOS EPISTEMOLÓGICOS Y LA PROPUESTA ESTRUCTURALISTA
In the light of the Vernant's critics against Thomson, this article try to point out the philosophical premises of the historical psychology and historical materialism that are in discussion between the authors. The Althusserian considerations of Emmanuel Terray serve as conceptual framework to the critical analysis. En la perspectiva marxista que es la suya, Thomson nos parece que comete un anacronismo: sólo cuando el trabajo libre y asalariado deviene mercancía «la forma mercantil de los productos llega a ser la forma social dominante» (Capital t.1) y el trabajo deviene trabajo abstracto (Crítica de la economía política)7. Esta afirmación, que planteamos deliberadamente con contundencia, merece sin embargo una explicación: las fuentes consideradas empíricas dependen, en parte, del objeto histórico que el investigador crea.

Between feminism and materialism : a question of method
\"Between Feminism and Materialism is a bold attempt to make sense of the relationship between feminist theory and capitalism. Addressing a number of philosophical problems that have engaged feminists over the last few decades - universals and reason, nature and essentialism, identity and non-identity, sex and gender, power and patriarchy, local and global - this innovative book breaks through feminist waves and explains the paradoxes of feminist theory by demonstrating the on-going relevance of dialectics and the concepts of exploitation, ideology, and reification. Drawing on first, second and third 'waves' of feminist theory, this exciting combination of existentialism, phenomenology and critical theory delivers a problem-based, micro-political and coalitional feminism ready to respond to the challenges presented by our thoroughly modern times\"-- Provided by publisher.

Entangled Worlds
Historically speaking, theology can be said to operate \"materiaphobically.\" Protestant Christianity in particular has bestowed upon theology a privilege of the soul over the body and belief over practice, in line with the distinction between a disembodied God and the inanimate world \"He\" created. Like all other human, social, and natural sciences, religious studies imported these theological dualisms into a purportedly secular modernity, mapping them furthermore onto the distinction between a rational, \"enlightened\" Europe on the one hand and a variously emotional, \"primitive, \" and \"animist\" non-Europe on the other. The \"new materialisms\" currently coursing through cultural, feminist, political, and queer theories seek to displace human privilege by attending to the agency of matter itself. Far from being passive or inert, they show us that matter acts, creates, destroys, and transforms—and, as such, is more of a process than a thing. Entangled Worlds examines the intersections of religion and new and old materialisms. Calling upon an interdisciplinary throng of scholars in science studies, religious studies, and theology, it assembles a multiplicity of experimental perspectives on materiality: What is matter, how does it materialize, and what sorts of worlds are enacted in its varied entanglements with divinity? While both theology and religious studies have over the past few decades come to prioritize the material contexts and bodily ecologies of more-than-human life, Entangled Worlds sets forth the first multivocal conversation between religious studies, theology, and the body of \"the new materialism.\" Here disciplines and traditions touch, transgress, and contaminate one another across their several carefully specified contexts. And in the responsiveness of this mutual touching of science, religion, philosophy, and theology, the growing complexity of our entanglements takes on a consistent ethical texture of urgency.

Aesthesis and perceptronium : on the entanglement of sensation, cognition, and matter
A new speculative ontology of aesthetics. In Aesthesis and Perceptronium, Alexander Wilson presents a theory of materialist and posthumanist aesthetics founded on an original speculative ontology that addresses the interconnections of experience, cognition, organism, and matter. Entering the active fields of contemporary thought known as the new materialisms and realisms, Wilson argues for a rigorous redefining of the criteria that allow us to discriminate between those materials and objects where aesthesis (perception, cognition) takes place and those where it doesn't. Aesthesis and Perceptronium negotiates between indiscriminately pluralist views that attribute mentation to all things and eliminative views that deny the existence of mentation even in humans. By recasting aesthetic questions within the framework of \"epistemaesthetics,\" which considers cognition and aesthetics as belonging to a single category that can neither be fully disentangled nor fully reduced to either of its terms, Wilson forges a theory of nonhuman experience that avoids this untenable dilemma. Through a novel consideration of the evolutionary origins of cognition and its extension in technological developments, the investigation culminates in a rigorous reevaluation of the status of matter, information, computation, causality, and time in terms of their logical and causal engagement with the activities of human and nonhuman agents.
