Reading Porn Reparatively

Kath Albury

University of New South Wales, Australia, k.albury{at}unsw.edu.au

Feminist thinking on pornography since the early 1980s has tended to polarize into ‘pro’ and ‘anti’ camps. Within both camps, there is a tendency to rely on moral frameworks that rely on either/or understandings of what pornography is, and what it does. This article draws on Michel Foucault’s theory of ethics to offer, in Eve Sedgwick’s terms, a reparative yet still critical model for feminist porn studies.

Key Words: ethics • feminism • Foucault • pornography • queer
