Second, a paper co-authored with Anna Secor and Derek Ruez in @newformations.bsky.social on "Love and Work." This is a examination and critique of how love as a political affect makes its way into both work and anti-work narratives in complex ways. https://journals.lwbooks.co.uk/newformations/vol-2024-issue-112/abstract-9999/
While primarily this is a critique of the demand to love your work from an anti-work and anti-productivist perspective, it also explores where discussions of love also make their way into anti-work narratives too, sometimes without problematizing love as a deeply ambivalent affective stance.
We also use discourses around (and critiques of) The Great Resignation and Beyoncé's "Break My Soul" as framing mechanisms for the piece, in a way that we hope is both playful and elucidating.
This is a paper that pushes for a feminist analysis of financial technologies, building on feminist economic geography and feminist political economy. It uses "buy now, pay later" platforms as an example of how fintech is increasingly part of consumer spaces.
This has been relatively unexamined in fintech research thus far (though see Gordan Tan's research), but it's central to broader processes that include the financialization of social reproduction and transformations of our societal relationships to consumer debt.
