About TIC, colonialite, patriarcat

This book questions the politicisation/depoliticisation of women's and feminists' organisations in the context of globalization, and introduces new directions for feminist epistemology. It explores some African pathways, in particular those of South Africa and Senegal. Extending beyond the notions of neoliberalism and "gender digital divide", the author is searching, through the ICT use of those organisations, the inhibiting factors or the genesis of political action, and particularly the mechanisms of institutionalisation. Palmieri shows that the impact of ICT and gender inequality combine to worsen and accelerate social hierarchies and may paradoxically create spaces where non-dominated gendered knowledge emerges. She dissociates domination and power. Contemporary societies, strongly foot-printed by digital connection, are mixing the coloniality of power and patriarchy, and this dual system of domination can produce epistemic creation.
