The Rohingya: ethnic nationalism, domestic diversionary targets, and Burmese post-colonial nation building by Abd-El-Barr, Ibrahim

“…By revisiting the main events/national framework which have amounted to the Rohingya's exclusion from Burmese nation-building as well as tracing a historical trajectory of the episodes of violence/forced displacement of the Rohingya against the backdrop of the surrounding political and economic contexts, it is argued that the Rohingya have been targeted as domestic diversionary targets for the Burmese military regime's constant failures in managing the state's economic and financial sectors, defeats in electoral politics, and compromises to its presumed sources of legitimacy and public acceptance.

Women s Reproductive Bodies and Labour as The Premise for The Survival of The Capitalist System: A Transnational Feminist Inquiry into Contemporary and Speculative Future Forms of... by Fredericks, Saskia

“…Wade, this research incorporates the concepts of gender, race, geopolitics, religion, and technology into investigating the transnational reliance of varied capitalist logics of accumulation on women's procreative capabilities. Utilizing a transnational feminist theoretical framework, and a qualitative secondary analysis methodological approach to extract data from secondary literature sources such as academic journal papers and online news articles, this study contends that an abortion ban in the Global North has had a ripple geopolitical effect on the Global South and beyond, exposing the current transnational connection between nation-states to implement foreignaided family planning, biocapitalism, surveillance capitalism, and terror capitalism via the carceral system, as tactics for extracting capitalist profit from the reproductive bodies and labour of women. …”
