[Air-L] feminist & care ethics in internet research?

[Jill Walker Rettberg]

We are hosting a double talk in Bergen today where Liz Losh will speak about feminist digital humanities, based on the collection she recently co-edited with Jacqueline Wernimont (not officially out in Europe until June, but somehow our library got a copy), and Aristea Fotopoulou will speak about the monograph she is writing for SAGE on Feminist Data Studies. There are definitely examples of feminist care ethics in Liz’s book, though I don’t think they use those words. Maybe ask Aristea directly - she is in Bergen for the semester finishing her book.

We won’t be streaming the talks, but will post a recap afterwards. And Liz and Aristea’s books are or will be available soon!

I also found Disrupting the Digital Humanities recently - haven’t read much yet but there is much feminism in there. And it has a smirking cat on the front cover, with the title in pink, and the first sentence is “This book was written before the world went to shit”, so I think it’s probably good!

Obviously a lot of DH isn’t internet research but there are some overlaps.

Hi all,

As some of you know, this week aline shakti franzke is a guest
researcher with us here in Oslo, with a primary focus on pushing forward
our work on the Internet Research Ethics 3.0 documents.

Aline is working specifically on a module on feminist ethics and care
ethics as ethical frameworks and their application in IRE.

While I have a small bibliography of examples going back to the early
2000s, I'm wondering if / hoping that I can take advantage of the AoIR
community and simply ask: can you forward bibliographic information
regarding articles, chapters, etc. that include explicitly feminist and/
or care ethics approaches in application to specific ethical challenges
and difficulties in IRE?

In the spirit of recent threads, it would likely be quite interesting
and beneficent to simply reply to the list with your suggestions.

The resulting bibliography will be included as a resource in the IRE 3.0
documents; we will happily acknowledge individuals for your suggestions
and contributions.

Many thanks in advance for any contributions and suggestions you may be
able to offer.

best regards,
- charles ess
