More about the book
Exploring the reparative turn in literary and queer studies, Patricia Stuelke reveals its hidden history linked to the struggles against US empire and neoliberal capitalism during the 1970s and 1980s. She argues that while feminist, antiracist, and anti-imperialist movements sought connection and self-care, these efforts inadvertently supported neoliberal governance. Stuelke critiques how institutions have appropriated these reparative practices to avoid confronting structural racism and imperialism, urging critics to reassess the impact of their reading practices.
