Contributors such as Jack Halberstam and Sara Ahmed examine how vulnerability has become a battleground, how affect and vulnerability have turned into a politicised currency both for addressing and obscuring asymmetries of power, and how media activism and state policies address so-called vulnerable groups. Taking on such heated topics as trigger warnings and diversity policies, the book will be of interest to scholars and students in media and cultural studies, affect theory, gender studies, queer theory and critical race studies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eList of figures\u003cbr\u003e1 Vulnerability as a political language – Anu Koivunen, Katariina Kyrölä and Ingrid Ryberg\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart I: Vulnerability as a battleground\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e2 Negotiating vulnerability in the trigger warning debates – Katariina Kyrölä\u003cbr\u003e3 Trigger happy: from content warning to censorship – Jack Halberstam\u003cbr\u003e4 Feminist hurt\/feminism hurts – Sara Ahmed\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart II: Vulnerability and visibility\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003e5 Little Pink\u003c\/i\u003e: white fragility and black social death – Ylva Habel\u003cbr\u003e6 Visibility and vulnerability: negotiating transgender representation and encounters with translatina worlds in \u003ci\u003eThe Salt Mines\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eWildness\u003c\/i\u003e – Laura Horak\u003cbr\u003e7 White vulnerability and the politics of reproduction in \u003ci\u003eTop of the Lake: China Girl\u003c\/i\u003e – Johanna Gondouin, Suruchi Thapar-Björkert and Ingrid Ryberg\u003cbr\u003e8 Spectacularly wounded: white male vulnerability as heterosexual fantasy – Susanna Paasonen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart III: Vulnerability and cultural policy\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e9 The invulnerable body of colour: the failure and success of a Swedish Film Diversity initiative – Mara Lee Gerden\u003cbr\u003e10 Naming, shaming, framing?
