“Making powerful arguments and bold methodological claims, this ambitious collection confronts the genealogies of ethnopornographic circulations while offering exemplary readings of ethnopornographic objects and optics. A significant intervention in anthropology, history, postcolonial studies, feminist theory, critical theory, and beyond.”
“In its ambitious analysis of ethnopornography's histories and circulations, this volume challenges readers to consider ethnopornography's centrality to forms of knowledge itself. This bold collection makes important contributions to fields across the humanities, including literary studies, history, black studies, ethnic studies, visual culture studies, gender studies, and anthropology. It also compels readers to think about the politics and ethics of our collective desires to see and to know and about how those desires have come to form the basis of disciplinary knowledge.”
