[Air-L] New issue of Essachess journal 17(33) - Digital Methods and Fields: Feminist Perspectives

[Helene BOURDELOİE]

Dear colleagues,
 
We are pleased to announce that the new issue of Essachess journal has been published: "Digital Methods and Fields: Feminist Perspectives".

This issue examines how digital tools, methods, fields, and research objects transform the methodologies of the humanities and social sciences while challenging the gender system. From a feminist perspective, it argues that science and technology are not “pure,” that digital calculations are not neutral, and that massively collected data do not guarantee objectivity. Operating on the principle that knowledge production is situated, this issue questions the gender biases that appear in the production and analysis of digital data and explores how these biases can be leveraged to develop more reflexive and inclusive research. By demonstrating how digital technology disrupts gender boundaries, this issue addresses the challenges that quantitative data pose to gender. It investigates how feminist research can enhance digital methods, promote ethical approaches, and critique the concentration of power within socio-digital platforms.
