“…It was not our intention to adopt a question and answer interview format, but to create an atmosphere of friendly-open conversation, hence encounter describes the time spent with trans people during the research. Following growing critique of interview as a conventional research technique in social sciences (Tilley, 2003), we considered our encounters as data producing events and data possibilities , not data collecting instances (Koro-Ljungberg et al, 2017). We did not intend to treat participants’ accounts as unveiling a true self, but rather a self that was constructed and constituted in the very process of speaking (Riach et al, 2016).…”

This article explores possible subversions of heteronormativity through transgender performativity in the workplace. Drawing on insights from Judith Butler we focus on how employees construct (un)intelligible subject positions that can create ‘moments’ of subversion, which go against the disciplinary, powerful and normative gender binary. We explore this possibility through an analysis of qualitative material generated through encounters with 11 Italian trans workers. Our analysis shows that subversion manifests in diverse ways according to how individual performativities combine with organisational context. Within this diversity we highlight three moments of subversion: subversion through intrigue; subversion through incongruence; and subversion through betrayal. We argue that where transgender identity contrasts strongly with gender norms, subversion is most intense. The subversion of strongly heteronormative working contexts is difficult as moments of subversion are unpredictable, varied and can come at personal cost, but are necessary in order to accommodate different gender identities.

“…It is also important to consider what data are and become in feminist materialist inquiry. Mirka Koro-Ljungberg et al (2017) question and problematize the nature of data and encourage us to pay “close attention to data and their numerous variations and manifestations” (p. 2) and to “data’s relationality, movement, entanglements or multidirectional epistemological flows” (Koro-Ljungberg, 2016, p. 46) and how this might help us to move beyond traditional notions of data analysis and coding.…”

Multiverse, Feminist Materialist Relational Time, and Multiple Future(s): (Re)configuring Possibilities for Qualitative Inquiry

Critical feminist materialist theorizing opens up possibilities for enacting different ways of knowledge making. In this article, I connect feminist materialist inquiry with time and temporality to develop a line of inquiry to reimagine the nature of multiple future(s). Employing theorizing developed by Francesca Ferrando, Karen Barad, and Donna Haraway, and thinking with the concepts of Multiverse, spacetimemattering, and agential cuts, I develop the concept of feminist materialist relational time as a methodological possibility for inquiry. Using examples from my own and others’ scholarship, I propose that feminist materialist relational time articulates ways in which affirmative and transversal ethico-onto-epistemologies can reconsider power, mattering, enactment, and exclusions, creating multiple future(s) for qualitative inquiry. I argue that the entanglement of past/present/future as events and forces in flux highlights the multiplicity of temporality where past/present/future are now, then, immanent, processual, always already in the making, and formed of intra-acting bodies.
