Summary/Abstract: This dossier explores the body as a contested site where contemporary nationalism, digital governance, and populist appropriations of feminist and critical discourse intersect. Framed by theoretical references to Wendy Chun, Roland Barthes, and somatic writing traditions, it investigates whether literary and artistic practices can articulate forms of aesthetic and ethical resistance to techno-authoritarianism, fetishism, and affective control. Bringing together critical essays, experimental texts, and transnational perspectives, the dossier examines how pleasure and desire operate in writing, reading, and performance as resources for reimagining the political agency of art.
