Ein Feminismus der Gegenwart muss in der Lage sein, die Kämpfe und Forderungen aller bisherigen feministischen Bewegungen und Theorien zu verstehen und anzunehmen. Ein moderner Feminismus muss weiterhin die Gleichberechtigung von Frauen fordern, ebenso aber queere und trans Kritik berücksichtigen. Er muss die Idee von Geschlecht als biopolitischem Instrument vereinen mit den Kämpfen, die die Dominanz von Cisgender infrage stellen. Die intersek...

A Feminist Mythology takes us on a poetic journey through the canonical myths of femininity, testing them from the point of view of our modern condition. A myth is not an object, but rather a process, one that Chiara Bottici practises by exploring different variants of the myth of "womanhood" through first- and third-person prose and poetry. We follow a series of myths that morph into each other, disclosing ways of being woman that question in...

In this first introductory text to anarchafeminism, Chiara Bottici argues that feminism needs anarchism and anarchism needs feminism. Radical political movements don't exist in isolation from each other. The fight for freedom and equality needs to operate on more than one connected plane. Anarchafeminism thus attempts to incorporate the strategems from both feminist and anarchist theories, approaches and grassroots activism to formulate a spec...

Chiara Bottici brings fresh perspective to the formation of political and power relationships and the paradox of a world rich in imagery yet seemingly devoid of imagination. She identifies the imaginal's critical role in powering representative democracies and its amplification through globalization.

Con una penna a volte surreale eppure sempre immersa nell'oggi, che mette in atto più una magia realista che un realismo magico, Chiara Bottici ripercorre in chiave moderna alcuni intrecci narrativi fondanti della nostra cultura. Cornice e dipinto, voci narranti e protagoniste, Sherazade, Arianna ed Europa traghettano il lettore verso una città nuova, abitata da sole donne che si riuniscono per liberarsi dai propri miti grazie al racconto. Ma ...

In Imagining Europe, Chiara Bottici and Benoît Challand explore the formation of modern European identity. Europe has not always been there, although we have been imagining it for quite some time. Even after the birth of a polity called the European Union, the meaning of Europe remained a very much contested topic. What is Europe? What are its boundaries? Is there a specific European identity or is the EU just the name for a group of instituti...

Chiara Bottici and Benoît Challand explore the formative process of a European identity situated between myth and memory.

In this book, Chiara Bottici argues for a philosophical understanding of political myth. Bottici shows that myth is a process, one of continuous work on a basic narrative pattern that responds to a need for significance. Human beings need meaning in order to master the world they live in, but they also need significance in order to live in a world that is less indifferent to them. This is particularly true in the realm of politics. Political m...
