Recenzii
This exciting collection is an important addition to both the literature on queer cultures/theory and on the precarious systems of higher education. Wide-ranging in focus, and including both evocative reflections and analytical suggestions for change, it will be a valuable addition to many bookshelves.
This book reminds me of the importance of resilience and solidarity needed in order to stand against the structurally racist academic institutions, that are still not addressing the work of young and old queer academics seriously or intersectionally. A book like this is refreshing and affirming, allowing us to see that the Civil Rights movements of the 1960s and 70s have bloomed in our younger queer academics. I relish in all the possibilities the Presumed Incompetent project has set precedents for, for all those categorized as "The Other."
Queer Precarities provides a truly queer mix of theoretical analysis and practical advice/storytelling about mutual aid, about how not to come back to "normal" after the pandemic, about how seemingly small structural changes might make much-needed improvements for the academic precariat, about the ongoing marginalizations of queers of color and queers with disabilities, and many more things that definitely need to be said. Queer Precarities centers voices of those who are not embedded in academia and who "remain in pursuit of a world where we do not need refuge." In the meantime, while queer writers and activists seek to dismantle academiconormativity and rebuild that better world, this book can serve as a refuge, a manifesto, and a guide for us all.
