About the Horrific Peril of Reading on Digital Devices
Science Direct, 2015
Reading on digital devices has become a widely debated issue in mass media and academia. The dawn and consolidation of digital technology have made possible new devices for reading. In the Internet era, reading is not just a matter of books and paper. This loss of exclusiveness has generated different anxieties in many intellectuals, researchers, journalists, editors, and publishers related to the printing environment. An analysis of such uneasiness can provide clues about the hidden interests and misunderstandings implied in their arguments. Revealing anxious claims about digital devices can enlighten us about the multiple factors and interests involved in the act of reading.
Review of the “Routledge Handbook of Philosophy of Sex and Sexuality”
Philosophies
This paper is a review essay of the recently published Routledge Handbook of Philosophy of Sex and Sexuality, edited by Brian D. Earp, Clare Chambers, and Lori Watson (2022). The anthology consists of an introduction and 40 essays, and it has eight parts: (I) What Is Sex? Is Sex Good?; (II) Sexual Orientations; (III) Sexual Autonomy and Consent; (IV) Regulating Sexual Relationships; (V) Pathologizing Sex and Sexuality; (VI) Contested Desires; (VII) Objectification and Commercialized Sex; and (VIII) Technology and the Future of Sex. The anthology contains essays mostly by philosophers and a few by non-philosophers (which can be a double-edged sword for a philosophy book). Some essays survey a topic, while others defend specific theses. I argue that the quality of the essays varies, but that all are thought-provoking. Although the essays that deal with sexual orientation and race tend to be on the weaker side, those that deal with technology, objectification, incest, pedophilia, sex w...

Girls as “Struggling Readers”: Delineating the Sociopolitical and Sociocultural Terrains of Books and Reading
Reading Research Quarterly, 2009
M any people consider books to be one of life's treasures and often embark on pleasurable and transformative literary journeys. Unfortunately, struggling readers' journeys are often arduous, if not painful. Recent reading mandates under No Child Left Behind often limit the scope of literary resources purchased with federal funds and appear to alter conceptions of what reading is and what quality texts are, without necessarily including student readers' input. The dissonance between what teachers and students consider "engaging reads"

Going Wild: Law and Literature and Sex
Studies in Law, Politics and Society, 2016
This paper explores four works of contemporary fiction to illuminate formal and informal regulation of sex. The paper's co-authors frame analysis with the story of their creation of a transdisciplinary course, entitled "Regulating Sex: Historical and Cultural Encounters," in which students mined literature for social critique, became immersed in the study of law and its limits, and developed increased sensitivity to power, its uses, and abuses. The paper demonstrates the value theoretically and pedagogically of third-wave feminisms, wild zones, and contact zones as analytic constructs and contends that including sex and sexualities in conversations transforms personal experience, education, society, and culture, including law.

The War on Sex
The War on Sex
The past fifty years are conventionally understood to have witnessed an uninterrupted expansion of sexual
rights and liberties in the United States. This state-of-the-art collection tells a different story: while progress
has been made in marriage equality, reproductive rights, access to birth control, and other areas, government
and civil society are waging a war on stigmatized sex by means of law, surveillance, and social control. The
contributors document the history and operation of sex offender registries and the criminalization of HIV, as
well as highly punitive measures against sex work that do more to harm women than to combat human
trafficking. They reveal that sex crimes are punished more harshly than other crimes, while new legal and
administrative regulations drastically restrict who is permitted to have sex. By examining how the everintensifying war on sex affects both privileged and marginalized communities, the essays collected here
show why sexual liberation is indispensable to social justice and human rights.
