Soggetto donna nella società contemporanea

This new issue, which follows up the online publication of Camera Blu, makes its way through the contemporary scenario by investigating experiences, perceptions and political representations developing nowadays around female subjectivity. While in the 7th issue of Camera Blu (The policies of the present) we focused our attention on the asymmetries between sexes across politics, work and family, despite being in the presence of legislation increasingly attentive to the pursuit of fundamental rights for women and men alike, here we intend to open up a debate over the new forms of alienation and self-hetero-oppression which have silently developed behind the creases of emancipation. In doing so, we set out to offer multidisciplinary instruments for deepening our knowledge about the man-woman relational tangles still present in the current social organization of Western and developing countries, which are still grappling with ethical-normative and often legally outdated, albeit socially shared, statutes, which still legitimate this kind of asymmetry. Therefore, we seek to understand the individual collusions and relational strategies that continue to sustain female subordination, bring about conflicts between sexes and drive social and welfare policies
