520 |a "Awkward Politics presents a new theoretical and methodological framework for examining popfeminist work. The authors work to explore how contemporary popfeminism attempts to better connect with the recipient and reflect unstable political climates, particularly focusing on the German cultural context. Looking at many examples from today's pop culture all over the world, Smith-Prei and Stehle suggest that awkwardness within feminist activism is often the product of unclear political positioning, further enabled by both the performative aspects of activism and the digital medium through which it is primarily dispersed. This work examines the intersections of technology, consumerism, and the political in popfeminist work. In a nutshell, Awkward Politics argues that transnational digital technologies have increased the impact of feminist activism but that these new media have complicated audience's ability to engage with feminist actions. To quote the author: "While digital technology's transnational reach and temporal immediacy has broadened the potential impact of feminist activism, it has also complicated the materiality of feminist work as well as muddied the line between engagement with and consumption of activist actions. Our book harnesses this confusion in an exploration of awkwardness as a theoretical tool for intervention. We suggest that awkwardness is a political emotion that offers a way of engaging with the transnational circulation of feminist activism today that accounts for and harnesses the messy conveyance of meaning as the digital meets the material (...) We suggest that theorizing the awkward can get at the complicated meanings and unstable positions of the political in popfeminist work." The book aims to highlight the urgency of feminist political issues and activism and begins with a brief historical overview before delving into topical discussion of recent movements (Riot Grrl, Pussy Riot, Flash mobs, One Billion Rising, Slut Walks) and analysis of popfeminist activism in a digital era."--  |c Provided by publisher
