reimagine sociality and reinvent the institutional architectures for a new world. We need to revitalize our theories of agency, social subjectivity, and planetary wellbeing; revamp the norms and rules that determine rights; and revisit the political practice of feminist solidarity. Our sense-making frames cannot afford a nostalgia about human supremacy. They must recognize non-human materialities, putting an environment in which all matter share existence, front and centre. This will allow us to revisualize personhood and social subjectivity through a relatedness with natural ecosystems and technological artefacts. Current institutional norms are woefully inadequate, unable as they are to tackle a totalizing intelligence capitalism. The digital paradigm must be (re)claimed through a post-individualist, anti-patriarchal, decentralized and anti-imperialist institutional framework. What we need are norms for a collective claim to data and a political commitment to systematically scrutinize the social identity of AI systems. Feminist efforts to build community and forge publics are entrapped in the dominant communicative arenas of the digital that instrumentalize and co-opt political subjectivity. Through a self-reflexive place-making that visibilizes the often-illegible practices of community and solidarity and embraces cross-fertilizations, feminism can lead the way for emancipatory posthuman futures.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-589fca0 gallery-spacing-custom elementor-hidden-tablet

the human condition. It allows us to contemplate the meta frames that must guide us into a just and egalitarian future, providing an occasion to sharpen our epistemic toolkit and explore what a transformative being and becoming in digitality \u2013 the condition of human-digital hybridity \u2013 means.<\/p>\n<p>The story of connectivity and access seems to have lost its once-impassioned urgency and emancipatory potential. The market for gadgets has reached an equilibrium adequate for capital\u2019s continuing conquest through datafication of human sociality. The gadgetless or unconnected, such as indigenous people, are perhaps not as important for the corporate data machine as the ecosystems they inhabit. As for the dispossessed others like wage workers, their lives are anyway being captured by cameras, internet of things (IoT), and automated decision-making technologies generating the data to categorize and convert them into \u2018bottom-of-the-pyramid\u2019 markets for ever-expanding product \u2018innovations\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>The production of capital in the digital epoch may be seen as the stage of \u2018intelligence capitalism\u2019. Enclosing the data it ceaselessly collects and accumulates, and deploying its data enclosure for honing an \u2018intelligence advantage\u2019, digital age capitalism ruthlessly eliminates competition to aggrandize value on the network. The capitalist data machine commoditizes information not only to produce economic value, but also to control \u2018bios\u2019 or life to a more intensified degree than before. In the current form of capitalism, therefore, \u201clife itself is the main capital\u201d.<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-1\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-1\">1<\/a> The data gold rush is the new imperialist frontier \u2013 a Leninist territorial capture by force for capitalist interests. Only that, coercion today is achieved by stealth, as the self and society are folded into intelligence capitalism through digitally-surveilled motions of the everyday.<\/p>\n<p>The digital\u2019s inherent propensity for deterritorial communications has worked well for the new global feudals \u2013 big platform companies \u2013 and their business models. Erasing the materiality of embodied labor and eradicating the relationality of care, intelligence capitalism decouples social reproduction from production. A regime of despotic control reigns over digital production chains, atomizing labor power and normalizing precarity. A pronounced asymmetry is evident in the neo-colonial division of labor within which gendered and racialized categorizations determine the very promise of freedom.<\/p>\n<p>The economy of \u201clife as surplus\u201d,<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-2\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-2\">2<\/a> feeding on incessant profiling, displaces critical agency and radical subjectivity, cannibalizing diversity.

Moving away from such dead ends, feminist political action must find a theoretical portal for liberation that allows for greater complexity.<\/p>\n<p>Feminist theorists like Donna Haraway, Rosi Braidotti, and Katherine Hayles reject these tight boundaries and dualisms. They question the category of the autonomous, liberal, human subject who stands apart from non-human others.<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-5\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-5\">5<\/a> Asserting the inseparability of mind and matter, they propose a \u2018posthuman\u2019 systems framing. Posthumanism contends that with digital technologies, the embodied mind becomes distributed across multiple terrains of hyperconnection and hyperpersonalization. The posthuman person is hence a complex, material-informational entity, constantly being (re)constructed.<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-6\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-6\">6<\/a><\/p>\n<p>This is not to suggest a loss of humanity, but a shift in the way we understand nature and the hybrid lives we lead. In the continuous interaction with electronic devices, the human person does indeed embody agency; however, agency is now reconfigured. It is distributed and interactive. Human agency correlates with the distributed cognitive system as a whole, in which \u2018thinking\u2019 is done by human and non-human actors.<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-7\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-7\">7<\/a><\/p>\n<p>As an eco-philosophical approach, feminist posthumanism also theorizes a seamlessness between subject and object, subjectivity and ecology \u2013 an inter-connectedness between all matter \u2013 \u201cthat locates the subject in the flow of relations with multiple others\u201d.<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-8\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-8\">8<\/a> Feminist posthuman theorists thus underline a post-anthropocentric perspective on the environment. The \u2018environment\u2019 is not only the context for human agency, but the arena for the production of the entirety of both \u2018natural\u2019 and \u2018social\u2019 worlds. There is nothing beyond environment, and nothing (for instance, humans and their diverse cultures) is excluded from it.<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-9\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-9\">9<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Why is the posthuman frame important to our actions?<\/p>\n<p>To marshal the vision and action adequate to a sustainable future that is cognizant of the limits of anthropocentricism and the false idea of a singular, undifferentiated humanity, the conceptual frames we deploy must explain the structures of power and domination. In posthumanism, things and persons, nature and technology, virtual and real are entangled in a complex whole. Our evolution towards the posthuman condition, as Braidotti reflects, is a stage of crisis under the \u2018capitalocene\u2019 \u2013 how capitalism in the digital technological conjuncture informs and subordinates the possibility of thinking about what a human is to an excessive extent.<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-10\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-10\">10<\/a> Arranging and ordering human beings as risky\/non-risky, deserving\/undeserving, valued\/disposable and so on, capitalist data regimes construct and reconstruct the materiality of bodies through control, colonization, and exploitation. They hold subjectivity hostage.<\/p>\n<p>But nostalgic assertions harking back at human supremacy and a disavowal of AI may end up denying \u201csocial ontology\u201d at the digital turn.<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-11\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-11\">11<\/a> Such nostalgia will prevent the crystallization of institutional ethics appropriate and adequate to the posthuman condition.

People and planet, machines and code, are subordinated in digital value chains, their agentic propensities exploited and extracted for profit. From rare-earth mining in Congo, chip production in Asia, affective and intellectual labor in the digital economy, mass deployment of surveillance paraphernalia by states to bio-piracy and bio-prospecting through digital gene sequencing, and AI modelling meant to discriminate and destroy, the pan-global digital ecosystem emboldened by finance capital has unleashed a disciplinary regime that has seen an erosion of personhood and the evisceration of planetary wellbeing.<\/p>\n<p>Institutional norms are at a crossroads.

The structural implications of loss of privacy for minority communities in derived datasets (when identities reappear) have been the subject of much study.<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-17\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-17\">17<\/a> A reification of personhood in the form of, for example, privacy rights as a boundary against things or abuse of commoditized data is unlikely to solve the social or collective crisis of corporatized data control.<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-18\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-18\">18<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The corollary of this is that extractive regimes of data as private enclosures will need to make way for a different institutional framework for data\u2019s \u201crematerialization\u201d<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-19\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-19\">19<\/a> so that datafied relationalities can (re)produce critical, agentic personhoods for thriving nature-culture-techno ecosystems.<\/p>\n<p>Non-Western ontologies provide important points of departure \u2013 locating humans as integral to \u2018environment\u2019,<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-20\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-20\">20<\/a> and underscoring new visions for conceptualizing human-digital assemblages.

The notion of the data commons \u2013 increasingly gaining ground in digital rights theory and activism \u2013 has the radical potential for an ecosystem approach to data resources. By situating data within the very same natural-social environment in which humans share space, this approach allows for explorations of collective claims that adhere to shared ethics and norms. It alerts us to the possibilities for posthuman personhood that can bring forth post-anthropocentric, legal-institutional framings of the digital.<\/p>\n<p>As Sarah Keenen observes, \u201cproperty\u2019s governmental power reaches beyond the subject, determining not only what belongs to who, but also who belongs where, and how spaces of belonging will be shaped in the future\u201d.<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-22\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-22\">22<\/a> Left to itself, data\u2019s commoditization is bound to (re)create a disciplinary order that is brutal in its alienation and destruction. In elaborating the ideas of the data subject, therefore, legal-institutional visions must legitimize the claims of marginal subjects, ensuring a place for them in the future. Claims need to be reimagined as potential posthumanist rights.<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-23\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-23\">23<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The institutional aspects of data also need to consider personhood as is constituted in the interplay between human and non-human parts of global intelligent ecosystems. Whether AI, for instance, has consciousness or sentience is the wrong question here. The fact is that, in the digital moment, thinking and embodiment are distributed. They are entangled in structures of power that need to be made known. Daniel Estrada points to how Kiwibots, a start-up offering food delivery through robots \u2013 rather than using AI software to control its bots \u2013 farms out the control task to low-paid operators in Colombia who use GPS to direct the bot to its destination. Kiwibots provides an interesting case at the intersection of automation, teleoperation, and the global labor market that challenges the strict dichotomy between humans and machines. In this digital ecosystem, instrumentalizing the robot as \u2018the slave\u2019 would amount to \u201cindirectly treating another human as a slave, with many of the same structures of exploitation and oppression the term invites\u201d.<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-24\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-24\">24<\/a> The right question for ethical policy, therefore, is \u2013 how should robotic\/AI agency co-construct social subjectivities?<\/p>\n<p>An institutional framework for AI must recognize overlapping structures of oppression that situate digital things \u2013 data pools, databases, networks, AI systems, cameras, internet of things, robots, cloud architectures \u2013 as agents of power. Feminist data and AI scholarship is replete with analyses of the subordination and violence implicit in the gendering and racialization of bots.<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-25\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-25\">25<\/a> Scholarship also points to the denial of personhood through state control of marginal citizens through real time surveillance.<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-26\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-26\">26<\/a> The \u201csocial identity\u201d of robots and AI must therefore be available for public inspection.<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-27\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-27\">27<\/a> Put differently, posthumanist frames of justice include a morality for the non-human world, opening up intelligence and bodies cohering in the form of automated code to political scrutiny and renewed imaginings.<\/p>\n<p>The claims of local actors resisting the multiple tyrannies of oppression cannot materialize unless the international political economy of development discourse and rule-making are challenged fundamentally. The right to participate as full persons in network-data assemblages is for all individuals and collectivities. It cannot fructify in the current trajectories of corporate-led, imperialist, undemocratic global systems that co-opt and control the digital.

Algorithmic cultures of platform publics accommodate radical identity-based politics, cannibalizing them into \u201ca market-driven and state-sanctioned governmentality of diversity\u201d that Chandra Talpade Mohanty critiques in her reflections of minority struggles in current neoliberal times.<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-32\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-32\">32<\/a> She points to how questions of oppression and exploitation, as systematic, institutionalized processes, have difficulty being heard when neoliberal narratives disallow the salience of collective experience or redefine this experience as a commodity to be consumed.<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-33\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-33\">33<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Tragically, the embodied experience of digitality is as much an embedded product of the structures of oppression and exploitation, including, race, caste, disability\/ability, age, gender, sexuality, geography etc., as in previous epochs. Activists and feminist rights organizations have documented the extreme violence that women and people of non-normative gender identities and sexualities face in the design architectures of online publics, geared to encash viral outrage, literally.<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-34\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-34\">34<\/a><\/p>\n<p>The online space of flows privileges certain bodies and narratives, even as it eclipses and sidesteps others incongruous with the demands of its political economy. Attempts to perforate pop culture with feminist strategies are rewarded,<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-35\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-35\">35<\/a> and publics adopting playful modes of resistance or meme cultures encouraged. The bodies of women of colour \u2013 even if legible \u2013 are often \u201crelegated to metaphors\u201d,<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-36\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-36\">36<\/a> while locations of race, gender, class, nation, empire, sexuality acquire a post-intersectional grammar that is unified in various combinations for the market. The contradictions in feminist ontological assumptions are rendered irrelevant.<\/p>\n<p>For feminist action then, the current posthuman condition presents a persistent tension between critical, radical subjectivity and online communicative publics. How do we call out and resist oppression when its experience is coded into the self-propelling logic of the network space? How can feminist publics, implicated as they are in the material architectures of intelligence capitalism, rescue themselves?<\/p>\n<p>Feminist practice needs a reflexivity that can account for the legibilities coming from the interpretative power of certain types of politics, and the erasures of certain others, both tied to the logics of the network-data complex. This will allow us to discern and politicize less visible feminist practices that are resisting the ravages of capital, demonstrating how community and solidarity in the transnational moment are conceived and enacted in a global frame for a global citizenship.<a class=\"bfn-footnoteHook\" id=\"article-footnote-hook-1166-37\" href=\"#article-footnote-1166-37\">37<\/a> The radical politics of such place-making \u2013 embedded (locally\/in the particular) yet connected (translocally\/through human-digital assemblages) \u2013 share a vision for an alternative democratic global order. These visions seek to make public the systemic basis of oppression, and the multifarious sites of resistance from where women farmers, indigenous women protesting the brutal exploitation of their ecological resources, persecuted women from minority religions laying claims to citizenship, trans and queer women, disabled women, and the new precariat on digital value chains \u2013 are collectively asserting their right to be heard.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e795469 elementor-blockquote--skin-border elementor-blockquote--button-color-official elementor-widget elementor-widget-blockquote\" data-id=\"e795469\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"blockquote.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<blockquote class=\"elementor-blockquote\">\n\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-blockquote__content\">\n\t\t\t\tFeminist place-making is not merely about creating the site\/s for free play of multiple subjectivities.
