LOVE'S EXCLUDED SUBJECTS: STAGING IRIGARAY'S HETERONORMATIVE ESSENTIALISM

This essay responds to Luce Irigaray's essentialist call for men and women to assume their proper places in love's division of labour. In it, I propose a queer reading of her call, resituating it as a confining aesthetic for solo performance.     

LUCE IRIGARAY AND LOVE

This article responds to recent criticisms of Luce Irigaray' I Love to You by inviting the reader to attend to the resources for theorizing being-two in love offered in this book as well as in Irigaray' larger corpus. Irigaray' focus on male/female relationships is a strategic choice that does not endorse compulsory heterosexuality. Her thought on the negative, on silence and on listening contributes to a theory of relational identity that can lead to the building of a new social order.     

Exploring relational engagement practices in stroke rehabilitation using the Voice Centred Relational Approach

While discussions on patient engagement commonly focus on patient behaviors, a small body of research highlights the patient-practitioner relationship as critical in engagement. Understanding this relationship might be facilitated through a relationally-oriented methodology. The Voice Centred Relational Approach is one such qualitative methodology. Within this paper, we present one turn in a long conversation about this methodology. Drawing on our longitudinal observational study of engagement practices in stroke rehabilitation in New Zealand, we explicate how a theoretical framework can inform how the Voice Centred Relational Approach is enacted in the research process, from entering the field to dissemination. We detail how we adapted the associated analytic techniques (the Listening Guide and i-poems) for use with multiple forms and sources of data. We propose that the underlying relational ontology and relational orientation of this methodology makes it a useful approach in researching relational practice in healthcare.

What does learning by listening bring to citizen engagement? Lessons from a government program

In public relations research, the concept of engagement is often theorized but seldom observed in practice. This research focuses on what public leaders learn when they undertake actions centered on learning by listening to society to implement governmental citizen engagement programs. Taking an inductive grounded approach to data analysis which draws on tools and methods of grounded theory as well as including a review of key concepts from public relations literature, a reflexive analysis of an action learning intervention involving the members of a provincial government was conducted. Results show that, when reflecting on interaction with stakeholders of the program, government members: increase their knowledge about both sides of the public organization-society relationship; become more sensitive to what listening is and implies, and, hence, more supportive of two-way communication; are challenged about the authenticity of the motivations behind their listening; become more aware of ways in which they work to build social capital; and, subsequently, increase their willingness to act together with society. This paper shows that reflection on the real implementation of engagement programs gives policy makers a better understanding of normative assumptions, and hence it instantiates public relations theories and concepts about engagement. By identifying acting-by-listening as integral to citizen engagement, it presents implications for the study and practice of public relations in public sector organizations.
