अमिया श्रीनिवासन
हमारी इच्छाएँ भी राजनीति से आकार लेती हैं: कौन आकर्षक माना जाता है यह नस्ल, वर्ग और जेंडर को दर्शाता है – फिर भी किसी को सेक्स देय नहीं है, और कार्य अपनी इच्छाओं पर पहरा बैठाए बिना उन पर प्रश्न उठाना है।
पृष्ठभूमि
ऑक्सफ़र्ड की सामाजिक और राजनीतिक सिद्धांत की चिचेले प्रोफ़ेसर: उत्पीड़ितों का क्रोध उचित हो सकता है; सेक्स का अधिकार किसी को नहीं है, फिर भी इच्छा राजनीति से आकार लेती है और आलोचनात्मक जाँच की पात्र है।
मुख्य विचार
- द राइट टू सेक्स
- क्रोध की उपयुक्तता
- वंशावली और उग्र बाह्यवाद

Srinivasan read Nietzsche’s genealogy of morals as having, beside any epistemic force, a non-epistemic power to reveal what our representations do (‘Genealogy, Epistemology and Worldmaking’, 2019).

Srinivasan took Foucault, following Nietzsche, as a paradigm of critical genealogy whose force is not epistemic but shows what our representations do (‘Genealogy, Epistemology and Worldmaking’, 2019).

Srinivasan asked when genealogies of belief undermine and when they vindicate, a contrast set out in Williams’s Truth and Truthfulness (2002), and introduced ‘genealogical luck’ (2019). A.

कृतियाँ
- 2021द राइट टू सेक्स
यौन की राजनीति पर निबंध: सेक्स का अधिकार किसी को नहीं है, फिर भी कौन चाहा जाता है और कौन नहीं, यह राजनीति से आकार लेता है और आलोचनात्मक जाँच का पात्र है – सहमति और पोर्नोग्राफ़ी से सेक्स-कार्य तक।
मत
Srinivasan began in epistemology. She defended Williamson’s argument that no non-trivial condition is “luminous”, always knowable when it obtains, and developed a “radical externalism”, motivated in part by people whose beliefs are shaped by racism or class position in ways they cannot detect from the inside. In “The Aptness of Anger” she argues that the anger of the oppressed can be apt – a fitting response to real wrongs – even when it is counterproductive, so that being forced to choose between apt anger and prudence is itself an “affective injustice”. Her work on genealogy asks what follows for our beliefs when we learn that they have contingent social origins. “The Right to Sex” brought her a wide readership. Its title essay, prompted by a misogynist killing by a self-described “incel”, argues that no one has a right to sex, yet that sexual desire is shaped by politics – by hierarchies of race, body, disability and gender – and should be examined critically without being policed. Other essays address pornography, relationships between teachers and students, and feminists’ reliance on prisons and police, which she criticises as “carceral feminism”.
