Currently, the aesthetic body is a site of intense focus and concern. The aesthetic body is both the target of a range of growing commercial industries, as well as a key focus of academic and theoretical study. Drawing on data from a qualitative study of young people’s body work practices, this chapter explores the aesthetic body work practices of muscle-building and cosmetic surgery. The chapter mobilises concepts of affect, assemblage and becoming to understand the aesthetically-motivated practices of muscle-building and cosmetic surgery. This approach contributes to developing the use of post-human concepts in empirical research. The chapter concludes with a discussion of possible implications for the use of such concepts for physical cultural studies.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="54b4180a908c0b3f50e6bec3e7483e0e" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{&quot;attachment_id&quot;:53956923,&quot;asset_id&quot;:34011933,&quot;asset_type&quot;:&quot;Work&quot;,&quot;button_location&quot;:&quot;profile&quot;}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/53956923/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="34011933"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="34011933"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 34011933;

It is organised into four themes: discursive practices; practice, change and organisations; practising subjectivity; and professional practice, public policy and education.<br /><br />Contributors to the collection engage and extend practice theory by drawing on the legacies of diverse social and cultural theorists, including Bourdieu, de Certeau, Deleuze and Guattari, Dewey, Latour, Marx, and Vygotsky, and by building on the theoretical trajectories of contemporary authors such as Karen Barad, Yrjo Engestrom, Andreas Reckwitz, Theodore Schatzki, Dorothy Smith, and Charles Taylor. The proximity of ideas from different fields and theoretical traditions in the book highlight key matters of concern in contemporary practice thinking, including the historicity of practice; the nature of change in professional practices; the place of discursive material in practice; the efficacy of refiguring conventional understandings of subjectivity and agency; and the capacity for theories of practice to disrupt conventional understandings of asymmetries of power and resources. Their juxtaposition also points to areas of contestation and raises important questions for future research.<br /><br />Practice Theory and Education will appeal to postgraduate students, academics and researchers in professional practice and education, and scholars working with social theory. It will be of particular interest to those who wish to move beyond the limiting configurations of practice found in contemporary neoliberal, new managerialist and narrow representationalist discourses. <br /><br />TOC<br />Chapter 1.

Whilst a significant range of work in youth studies has explored gender, class, race and ethnicity and sexualities—all of which have bodily dimensions—the body is generally studied indirectly, rather than being the central focus. This edited collection draws together a scholarly range of international, interdisciplinary work on youth, with a specific focus on the body. The authors engage with conceptual, empirical and pedagogical possibilities which interrupt perspectives which view young people’s bodies primarily as ‘problems’ to be managed, or as sites of risk or deviance. They demonstrate that a focus on the body enables exploration of additional dimensions in understanding the experiences of young people.&nbsp; They variously situate their discussion across a range of sites in Australia, North America, Britain, Canada, Asia and Africa; drawing from a range of disciplines including sociology, education and cultural studies. This collection aims to show—theoretically, empirically and pedagogically—the implications that emerge from a reframed approach to understanding children and youth through a focus on the body and embodiment.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="23254936"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="23254936"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 23254936;

Drawing on feminist and Deleuzian–Spinozan approaches to the body, the article explores the embodied sensations, or affects, associated with the body’s physical modification through cosmetic surgery as one practice of body work. This approach pursues a non-dualist analysis of the body and contributes to new understandings of body-modification practices such as cosmetic surgery as processes influenced, and informed, by affect. Through examples of differing experiences and trajectories relating to the practice of cosmetic surgery, which has long been a contentious issue in feminism, the article makes evident what a feminist Deleuzian approach means in practice and what it can contribute to analyses of the body in/and society. This approach can assist in exploring the complex ways in which gendered embodiments assemble, and in understanding the dynamics and processes informing differing bodily possibilities related to gender.<br /><br />Keywords: cosmetic surgery, femininities, body, gender, Deleuze, feminism, affect</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="56a601aa8ba1958d64e9e4f060bd69fd" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{&quot;attachment_id&quot;:49895456,&quot;asset_id&quot;:29450885,&quot;asset_type&quot;:&quot;Work&quot;,&quot;button_location&quot;:&quot;profile&quot;}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/49895456/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="29450885"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="29450885"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 29450885;

Body work, which involves a range of practices to maintain or modify the body&#39;s appearance, is central to the way the body is experienced in a Western, industrialized, and consumerist society such as Australia. Through body work practices, gender is continually reasserted and reconstructed. Examining body work is a way of exploring the ways that gender is embodied and lived. Body work must be understood as embodied processes which move beyond binarized analyses of the body in society. In this regard, embodiment and Deleuzian frameworks which focus on ‘becomings’ provide important analytic insights. Drawing on 22 qualitative in-depth semi-structured interviews conducted in 2010 with men and women aged 18–35 in Melbourne, Australia, this article explores the ways that body work and gender can be understood as relations through which bodies ‘become’. There were contrasts and similarities between the male and female participants&#39; experiences of feeling pressure to change their bodies. Most women recognized the social pressure guiding expectations of their bodies, and although many felt that this was inappropriate, this did not lessen the pressure they experienced to ‘work on’ their bodies. A number of men too described feeling pressure to attain, or maintain, the ideal body but were less critical of this pressure. Body work must be understood as embodied processes which move beyond binarized analyses of the body. In this regard Deleuzian frameworks that focus on ‘becomings’ provide important conceptual developments.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="1943728"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="1943728"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 1943728; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=1943728]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=1943728]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 1943728; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='1943728']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=1943728]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":1943728,"title":"Bodies, body work and gender: exploring a Deleuzian approach","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/1943728/Bodies_body_work_and_gender_exploring_a_Deleuzian_approach","owner_id":1941964,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":1941964,"first_name":"Julia","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Coffey","page_name":"JuliaCoffey","domain_name":"newcastle-au","created_at":"2012-06-13T09:30:09.079-07:00","display_name":"Julia Coffey","url":"https://newcastle-au.academia.edu/JuliaCoffey"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="23254739"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/23254739/As_long_as_Im_fit_and_a_healthy_weight_I_dont_feel_bad_Exploring_body_workand_health_through_the_conceptof_affect"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of As long as I&#39;m fit and a healthy weight, I don&#39;t feel bad&#39;: Exploring body workand health through the conceptof &#39;affect" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/23254739/As_long_as_Im_fit_and_a_healthy_weight_I_dont_feel_bad_Exploring_body_workand_health_through_the_conceptof_affect">As long as I&#39;m fit and a healthy weight, I don&#39;t feel bad&#39;: Exploring body workand health through the conceptof &#39;affect</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span>Journal of Sociology</span><span>, 2014</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">In diverse social contexts individuals are encouraged to ‘work on’ their bodies to improve their ...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">In diverse social contexts individuals are encouraged to ‘work on’ their bodies to improve their health and appearance. This article builds on recent sociological and feminist approaches which foreground the body and embodiment, combining a Deleuzian theorisation of bodies and the concept of affect to analyse qualitative interviews with young people about their body work practices. Empirical work which explicitly employs a Deleuzian theory of bodies in methodology and analysis is relatively new in sociological studies of the body. Drawing on young people’s narratives about their body practices, and their embodied everyday experiences of ‘health’, this article shows the value of a Deleuzian approach to rethinking bodies, arguing that the concept of affect helps to extend understandings of embodiment. Through interviews with young people about their bodies and body work practices, this article explicates how a Deleuzian approach to bodies can be practically used in empirical analysis.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="23254739"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="23254739"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 23254739; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=23254739]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=23254739]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 23254739; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='23254739']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=23254739]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":23254739,"title":"As long as I'm fit and a healthy weight, I don't feel bad': Exploring body workand health through the conceptof 'affect","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/23254739/As_long_as_Im_fit_and_a_healthy_weight_I_dont_feel_bad_Exploring_body_workand_health_through_the_conceptof_affect","owner_id":1941964,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":1941964,"first_name":"Julia","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Coffey","page_name":"JuliaCoffey","domain_name":"newcastle-au","created_at":"2012-06-13T09:30:09.079-07:00","display_name":"Julia Coffey","url":"https://newcastle-au.academia.edu/JuliaCoffey"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="20365530"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" href="https://www.academia.edu/20365530/Young_women_s_negotiations_of_gender_the_body_and_the_labour_market_in_a_post_feminist_context"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Young women’s negotiations of gender, the body and the labour market in a post-feminist context" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://attachments.academia-assets.com/41317049/thumbnails/1.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/20365530/Young_women_s_negotiations_of_gender_the_body_and_the_labour_market_in_a_post_feminist_context">Young women’s negotiations of gender, the body and the labour market in a post-feminist context</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">This article explores the ways the body and femininity is understood and negotiated in relation t...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">This article explores the ways the body and femininity is understood and negotiated in relation to employment. This article draws on interview data from an Australian study which aimed to explore what it meant to be a ‘young woman’ in neoliberal late modernity, and in relation to the paradoxes of post-feminism. Though there has been an unprecedented rise in youth post-secondary school participation in Australia and elsewhere, girls’ and young women’s increased investment and participation in education has not provided the same gains as for their male counterparts. All interview participants described being aware of gender inequalities and gender discrimination in the workplace, including the glass ceiling, the gender pay gap, and demands and pressures on women to balance career and motherhood, however many did not associate these issues with ‘feminism’. We explore the dynamics of notions of equality, difference and the body in participants’ discussions of work and their anticipation of motherhood and the logics by which gender inequalities are sustained.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="4b8cca9419702e06e5acd517f61898c3" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{&quot;attachment_id&quot;:41317049,&quot;asset_id&quot;:20365530,&quot;asset_type&quot;:&quot;Work&quot;,&quot;button_location&quot;:&quot;profile&quot;}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/41317049/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="20365530"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="20365530"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 20365530;

For the men discussed in this article, body work practices of eating and exercise in particular relate to their embodiments of masculinity and to their broader understandings of their bodies and ‘selves’. Whilst appearance and ‘beauty’ are typically constructed as feminine concerns and important to women’s constructions of identity, these examples show that a concern for the body’s appearance is also an important component of current embodiments of masculinity. This article provides an outline of a Deleuzian approach to theorizing the body through the concepts of affect and assemblage and suggests how this approach can assist in empirical analysis of the complex, contingent and contradictory relationship between the idealization of health as an ‘image’ and ‘ideal’ gendered appearances in young men’s gendered and ‘health’-related body work practices. This has academic and practical implications for understanding contemporary gender arrangements related to the social and cultural circumstances in which the body is becoming ever more central.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="5ca8fda60efd15b27b1bad386571dc8a" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{&quot;attachment_id&quot;:38707367,&quot;asset_id&quot;:15522251,&quot;asset_type&quot;:&quot;Work&quot;,&quot;button_location&quot;:&quot;profile&quot;}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/38707367/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="15522251"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="15522251"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 15522251;

Data is drawn from a qualitative study on risk-taking among 52 Danish youths enrolled in high school or vocational training. A number of ‘risky’ practices such as drug use, fights, speeding etc. were discussed. In contrast to these practices which were primarily described in relation to ‘physical risks’, steroid use was understood as part of an ‘identity’ or ‘lifestyle’ in a way these other risks were not. Few interviewees had used steroids, and the large majority distanced themselves from the practice. Reasons for not wanting to use steroids were related to a) perceiving the drug to be part of a broader lifestyle and identity that they are not interested in committing to or embodying and b) finding the body image, physicality and associations with steroid use ‘fake’, ‘gross’ and distasteful. We draw on recent developments in feminist sociological theory related to the gendered body as both a performance and process to understand steroid use as a practice through which the body and self is produced. More than a one-dimensional ‘risky’ practice, we argue that gendered and embodied identities are crucial to understanding the dynamics of steroid use. <br />Keywords: body image; identity; risk; masculinity;

This article builds on recent sociological and feminist approaches which foreground the body and embodiment, combining a Deleuzian theorisation of bodies and the concept of affect to analyse qualitative interviews with young people about their body work practices. Empirical work which explicitly employs a Deleuzian theory of bodies in methodology and analysis is relatively new in sociological studies of the body. Drawing on young people’s narratives about their body practices, and their embodied everyday experiences of ‘health’, this article shows the value of a Deleuzian approach to rethinking bodies, arguing that the concept of affect helps to extend understandings of embodiment. Through interviews with young people about their bodies and body work practices, this article explicates how a Deleuzian approach to bodies can be practically used in empirical analysis.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="a6d845c853464ed2062a84e45a721457" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{&quot;attachment_id&quot;:32265762,&quot;asset_id&quot;:5035242,&quot;asset_type&quot;:&quot;Work&quot;,&quot;button_location&quot;:&quot;profile&quot;}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/32265762/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="5035242"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="5035242"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 5035242;

While the term is used in many analyses of young people&#39;s lives, this paper argues that the nature and conceptual meaning of agency remain ambiguous: agency is a ‘black box’ which while fundamental to youth sociology remains unpacked. Ontological and epistemological confusion about the concept means that appeals to agency in contemporary youth sociology beg the very questions they claim to answer. Nevertheless, the concept has become central to the conceptual and political basis of youth research, coming to stand for practices that are ‘bounded’ by structures and resist existing states of affairs. This limits the explanatory power of theoretical frameworks in youth studies, and does not serve the ethical commitments of a politically engaged discipline. Identifying conceptual and normative problems raised by the way agency is deployed, this paper argues that a conceptually powerful and politically engaged youth sociology must move beyond the problem of agency as it stands, and incorporates theoretical perspectives on youth subjectivities and social action that indicate possibilities for how this might take place.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="4399116"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="4399116"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 4399116;

In ‘bringing the body’ to the fore in research, there are epistemological and conceptual tensions between ‘humanist’ methods of qualitative data collection and ‘anti-humanist’ understandings of the body and subjectivity in feminist post-structural theory and research.&nbsp; There are also tensions between accounts of researcher ‘reflexivity’, and the binary opposition between ‘researcher’ and ‘researched’.&nbsp; Sandelowski (2002) and Blumenthal (1999) argue that qualitative methods such as interviews must make room for the multiplicity and variation within and across identities, and factor in that the ‘self’ of the researcher is also multiple and divided. Attending to the affects and relations between the participants in the interview encounter has been proposed as one way forward (Fox &amp; Ward 2008; St. Pierre 2002; Sandelowski 2002). This presentation discusses these tensions as they arose during an empirical research project which attempted to make explicit what a Deleuzian approach means in sociological practice, and asks how a Deleuzian approach to the body and embodiment might be brought to bear in the sociology of youth? What could methodological developments of this kind contribute in the way of previously un-thought questions, practices and knowledge in the sociology of youth?</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="6afce20973e95582e5e3fb871eca4f00" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{&quot;attachment_id&quot;:32392799,&quot;asset_id&quot;:5205334,&quot;asset_type&quot;:&quot;Work&quot;,&quot;button_location&quot;:&quot;profile&quot;}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/32392799/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="5205334"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="5205334"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 5205334;

as a symbolic category were positioned at the heart of the issues associated with land-use in the region on both sides of the debate. Young people were described throughout the study as an abstract symbol of ‘the future&#39;. How exactly ‘the future&#39; was related to youth as a symbolic category depended largely on participants&#39; perspectives on the proposed Coal Seam Gas (CSG) mining project. For those who supported the CSG project, the figure of youth signified hope of economic invigoration. For those who opposed the CSG project, the loss of landscape for future generations of youth was a key concern due the potential irreversible environmental impacts associated with the extractive industry in the area. We argue ‘youth&#39; becomes a ‘figure&#39; imbued with the region&#39;s affective anxieties surrounding land-use change.

Currently, the aesthetic body is a site of intense focus and concern. The aesthetic body is both the target of a range of growing commercial industries, as well as a key focus of academic and theoretical study. Drawing on data from a qualitative study of young people’s body work practices, this chapter explores the aesthetic body work practices of muscle-building and cosmetic surgery. The chapter mobilises concepts of affect, assemblage and becoming to understand the aesthetically-motivated practices of muscle-building and cosmetic surgery. This approach contributes to developing the use of post-human concepts in empirical research. The chapter concludes with a discussion of possible implications for the use of such concepts for physical cultural studies.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="54b4180a908c0b3f50e6bec3e7483e0e" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{&quot;attachment_id&quot;:53956923,&quot;asset_id&quot;:34011933,&quot;asset_type&quot;:&quot;Work&quot;,&quot;button_location&quot;:&quot;profile&quot;}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/53956923/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="34011933"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="34011933"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 34011933;

It is organised into four themes: discursive practices; practice, change and organisations; practising subjectivity; and professional practice, public policy and education.<br /><br />Contributors to the collection engage and extend practice theory by drawing on the legacies of diverse social and cultural theorists, including Bourdieu, de Certeau, Deleuze and Guattari, Dewey, Latour, Marx, and Vygotsky, and by building on the theoretical trajectories of contemporary authors such as Karen Barad, Yrjo Engestrom, Andreas Reckwitz, Theodore Schatzki, Dorothy Smith, and Charles Taylor. The proximity of ideas from different fields and theoretical traditions in the book highlight key matters of concern in contemporary practice thinking, including the historicity of practice; the nature of change in professional practices; the place of discursive material in practice; the efficacy of refiguring conventional understandings of subjectivity and agency; and the capacity for theories of practice to disrupt conventional understandings of asymmetries of power and resources. Their juxtaposition also points to areas of contestation and raises important questions for future research.<br /><br />Practice Theory and Education will appeal to postgraduate students, academics and researchers in professional practice and education, and scholars working with social theory. It will be of particular interest to those who wish to move beyond the limiting configurations of practice found in contemporary neoliberal, new managerialist and narrow representationalist discourses. <br /><br />TOC<br />Chapter 1.

Whilst a significant range of work in youth studies has explored gender, class, race and ethnicity and sexualities—all of which have bodily dimensions—the body is generally studied indirectly, rather than being the central focus. This edited collection draws together a scholarly range of international, interdisciplinary work on youth, with a specific focus on the body. The authors engage with conceptual, empirical and pedagogical possibilities which interrupt perspectives which view young people’s bodies primarily as ‘problems’ to be managed, or as sites of risk or deviance. They demonstrate that a focus on the body enables exploration of additional dimensions in understanding the experiences of young people.&nbsp; They variously situate their discussion across a range of sites in Australia, North America, Britain, Canada, Asia and Africa; drawing from a range of disciplines including sociology, education and cultural studies. This collection aims to show—theoretically, empirically and pedagogically—the implications that emerge from a reframed approach to understanding children and youth through a focus on the body and embodiment.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="23254936"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="23254936"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 23254936;

Drawing on feminist and Deleuzian–Spinozan approaches to the body, the article explores the embodied sensations, or affects, associated with the body’s physical modification through cosmetic surgery as one practice of body work. This approach pursues a non-dualist analysis of the body and contributes to new understandings of body-modification practices such as cosmetic surgery as processes influenced, and informed, by affect. Through examples of differing experiences and trajectories relating to the practice of cosmetic surgery, which has long been a contentious issue in feminism, the article makes evident what a feminist Deleuzian approach means in practice and what it can contribute to analyses of the body in/and society. This approach can assist in exploring the complex ways in which gendered embodiments assemble, and in understanding the dynamics and processes informing differing bodily possibilities related to gender.<br /><br />Keywords: cosmetic surgery, femininities, body, gender, Deleuze, feminism, affect</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="56a601aa8ba1958d64e9e4f060bd69fd" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{&quot;attachment_id&quot;:49895456,&quot;asset_id&quot;:29450885,&quot;asset_type&quot;:&quot;Work&quot;,&quot;button_location&quot;:&quot;profile&quot;}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/49895456/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="29450885"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="29450885"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 29450885;

Body work, which involves a range of practices to maintain or modify the body&#39;s appearance, is central to the way the body is experienced in a Western, industrialized, and consumerist society such as Australia. Through body work practices, gender is continually reasserted and reconstructed. Examining body work is a way of exploring the ways that gender is embodied and lived. Body work must be understood as embodied processes which move beyond binarized analyses of the body in society. In this regard, embodiment and Deleuzian frameworks which focus on ‘becomings’ provide important analytic insights. Drawing on 22 qualitative in-depth semi-structured interviews conducted in 2010 with men and women aged 18–35 in Melbourne, Australia, this article explores the ways that body work and gender can be understood as relations through which bodies ‘become’. There were contrasts and similarities between the male and female participants&#39; experiences of feeling pressure to change their bodies. Most women recognized the social pressure guiding expectations of their bodies, and although many felt that this was inappropriate, this did not lessen the pressure they experienced to ‘work on’ their bodies. A number of men too described feeling pressure to attain, or maintain, the ideal body but were less critical of this pressure. Body work must be understood as embodied processes which move beyond binarized analyses of the body. In this regard Deleuzian frameworks that focus on ‘becomings’ provide important conceptual developments.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="1943728"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="1943728"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 1943728; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=1943728]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=1943728]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 1943728; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='1943728']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=1943728]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":1943728,"title":"Bodies, body work and gender: exploring a Deleuzian approach","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/1943728/Bodies_body_work_and_gender_exploring_a_Deleuzian_approach","owner_id":1941964,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":1941964,"first_name":"Julia","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Coffey","page_name":"JuliaCoffey","domain_name":"newcastle-au","created_at":"2012-06-13T09:30:09.079-07:00","display_name":"Julia Coffey","url":"https://newcastle-au.academia.edu/JuliaCoffey"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="23254739"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/23254739/As_long_as_Im_fit_and_a_healthy_weight_I_dont_feel_bad_Exploring_body_workand_health_through_the_conceptof_affect"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of As long as I&#39;m fit and a healthy weight, I don&#39;t feel bad&#39;: Exploring body workand health through the conceptof &#39;affect" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://a.academia-assets.com/images/blank-paper.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" rel="nofollow" href="https://www.academia.edu/23254739/As_long_as_Im_fit_and_a_healthy_weight_I_dont_feel_bad_Exploring_body_workand_health_through_the_conceptof_affect">As long as I&#39;m fit and a healthy weight, I don&#39;t feel bad&#39;: Exploring body workand health through the conceptof &#39;affect</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span>Journal of Sociology</span><span>, 2014</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">In diverse social contexts individuals are encouraged to ‘work on’ their bodies to improve their ...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">In diverse social contexts individuals are encouraged to ‘work on’ their bodies to improve their health and appearance. This article builds on recent sociological and feminist approaches which foreground the body and embodiment, combining a Deleuzian theorisation of bodies and the concept of affect to analyse qualitative interviews with young people about their body work practices. Empirical work which explicitly employs a Deleuzian theory of bodies in methodology and analysis is relatively new in sociological studies of the body. Drawing on young people’s narratives about their body practices, and their embodied everyday experiences of ‘health’, this article shows the value of a Deleuzian approach to rethinking bodies, arguing that the concept of affect helps to extend understandings of embodiment. Through interviews with young people about their bodies and body work practices, this article explicates how a Deleuzian approach to bodies can be practically used in empirical analysis.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="23254739"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="23254739"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 23254739; window.Academia.workViewCountsFetcher.queue(workId, function (count) { var description = window.$h.commaizeInt(count) + " " + window.$h.pluralize(count, 'View'); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=23254739]").text(description); $(".js-view-count[data-work-id=23254739]").attr('title', description).tooltip(); }); });</script></span></span><span><span class="percentile-widget hidden"><span class="u-mr2x work-percentile"></span></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 23254739; window.Academia.workPercentilesFetcher.queue(workId, function (percentileText) { var container = $(".js-work-strip[data-work-id='23254739']"); container.find('.work-percentile').text(percentileText.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + percentileText.slice(1)); container.find('.percentile-widget').show(); container.find('.percentile-widget').removeClass('hidden'); }); });</script></span></div><div id="work-strip-premium-row-container"></div></div></div><script> require.config({ waitSeconds: 90 })(["https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/wow_profile-a9bf3a2bc8c89fa2a77156577594264ee8a0f214d74241bc0fcd3f69f8d107ac.js","https://a.academia-assets.com/assets/work_edit-ad038b8c047c1a8d4fa01b402d530ff93c45fee2137a149a4a5398bc8ad67560.js"], function() { // from javascript_helper.rb var dispatcherData = {} if (false){ window.WowProfile.dispatcher = window.WowProfile.dispatcher || _.clone(Backbone.Events); dispatcherData = { dispatcher: window.WowProfile.dispatcher, downloadLinkId: "-1" } } $('.js-work-strip[data-work-id=23254739]').each(function() { if (!$(this).data('initialized')) { new WowProfile.WorkStripView({ el: this, workJSON: {"id":23254739,"title":"As long as I'm fit and a healthy weight, I don't feel bad': Exploring body workand health through the conceptof 'affect","internal_url":"https://www.academia.edu/23254739/As_long_as_Im_fit_and_a_healthy_weight_I_dont_feel_bad_Exploring_body_workand_health_through_the_conceptof_affect","owner_id":1941964,"coauthors_can_edit":true,"owner":{"id":1941964,"first_name":"Julia","middle_initials":null,"last_name":"Coffey","page_name":"JuliaCoffey","domain_name":"newcastle-au","created_at":"2012-06-13T09:30:09.079-07:00","display_name":"Julia Coffey","url":"https://newcastle-au.academia.edu/JuliaCoffey"},"attachments":[]}, dispatcherData: dispatcherData }); $(this).data('initialized', true); } }); $a.trackClickSource(".js-work-strip-work-link", "profile_work_strip") }); </script> <div class="js-work-strip profile--work_container" data-work-id="20365530"><div class="profile--work_thumbnail hidden-xs"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-thumbnail" href="https://www.academia.edu/20365530/Young_women_s_negotiations_of_gender_the_body_and_the_labour_market_in_a_post_feminist_context"><img alt="Research paper thumbnail of Young women’s negotiations of gender, the body and the labour market in a post-feminist context" class="work-thumbnail" src="https://attachments.academia-assets.com/41317049/thumbnails/1.jpg" /></a></div><div class="wp-workCard wp-workCard_itemContainer"><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--title"><a class="js-work-strip-work-link text-gray-darker" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-title" href="https://www.academia.edu/20365530/Young_women_s_negotiations_of_gender_the_body_and_the_labour_market_in_a_post_feminist_context">Young women’s negotiations of gender, the body and the labour market in a post-feminist context</a></div><div class="wp-workCard_item"><span class="js-work-more-abstract-truncated">This article explores the ways the body and femininity is understood and negotiated in relation t...</span><a class="js-work-more-abstract" data-broccoli-component="work_strip.more_abstract" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-more-abstract" href="javascript:;"><span> more </span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">This article explores the ways the body and femininity is understood and negotiated in relation to employment. This article draws on interview data from an Australian study which aimed to explore what it meant to be a ‘young woman’ in neoliberal late modernity, and in relation to the paradoxes of post-feminism. Though there has been an unprecedented rise in youth post-secondary school participation in Australia and elsewhere, girls’ and young women’s increased investment and participation in education has not provided the same gains as for their male counterparts. All interview participants described being aware of gender inequalities and gender discrimination in the workplace, including the glass ceiling, the gender pay gap, and demands and pressures on women to balance career and motherhood, however many did not associate these issues with ‘feminism’. We explore the dynamics of notions of equality, difference and the body in participants’ discussions of work and their anticipation of motherhood and the logics by which gender inequalities are sustained.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="4b8cca9419702e06e5acd517f61898c3" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{&quot;attachment_id&quot;:41317049,&quot;asset_id&quot;:20365530,&quot;asset_type&quot;:&quot;Work&quot;,&quot;button_location&quot;:&quot;profile&quot;}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/41317049/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="20365530"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="20365530"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 20365530;

For the men discussed in this article, body work practices of eating and exercise in particular relate to their embodiments of masculinity and to their broader understandings of their bodies and ‘selves’. Whilst appearance and ‘beauty’ are typically constructed as feminine concerns and important to women’s constructions of identity, these examples show that a concern for the body’s appearance is also an important component of current embodiments of masculinity. This article provides an outline of a Deleuzian approach to theorizing the body through the concepts of affect and assemblage and suggests how this approach can assist in empirical analysis of the complex, contingent and contradictory relationship between the idealization of health as an ‘image’ and ‘ideal’ gendered appearances in young men’s gendered and ‘health’-related body work practices. This has academic and practical implications for understanding contemporary gender arrangements related to the social and cultural circumstances in which the body is becoming ever more central.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="5ca8fda60efd15b27b1bad386571dc8a" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{&quot;attachment_id&quot;:38707367,&quot;asset_id&quot;:15522251,&quot;asset_type&quot;:&quot;Work&quot;,&quot;button_location&quot;:&quot;profile&quot;}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/38707367/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="15522251"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="15522251"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 15522251;

Data is drawn from a qualitative study on risk-taking among 52 Danish youths enrolled in high school or vocational training. A number of ‘risky’ practices such as drug use, fights, speeding etc. were discussed. In contrast to these practices which were primarily described in relation to ‘physical risks’, steroid use was understood as part of an ‘identity’ or ‘lifestyle’ in a way these other risks were not. Few interviewees had used steroids, and the large majority distanced themselves from the practice. Reasons for not wanting to use steroids were related to a) perceiving the drug to be part of a broader lifestyle and identity that they are not interested in committing to or embodying and b) finding the body image, physicality and associations with steroid use ‘fake’, ‘gross’ and distasteful. We draw on recent developments in feminist sociological theory related to the gendered body as both a performance and process to understand steroid use as a practice through which the body and self is produced. More than a one-dimensional ‘risky’ practice, we argue that gendered and embodied identities are crucial to understanding the dynamics of steroid use. <br />Keywords: body image; identity; risk; masculinity;

This article builds on recent sociological and feminist approaches which foreground the body and embodiment, combining a Deleuzian theorisation of bodies and the concept of affect to analyse qualitative interviews with young people about their body work practices. Empirical work which explicitly employs a Deleuzian theory of bodies in methodology and analysis is relatively new in sociological studies of the body. Drawing on young people’s narratives about their body practices, and their embodied everyday experiences of ‘health’, this article shows the value of a Deleuzian approach to rethinking bodies, arguing that the concept of affect helps to extend understandings of embodiment. Through interviews with young people about their bodies and body work practices, this article explicates how a Deleuzian approach to bodies can be practically used in empirical analysis.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="a6d845c853464ed2062a84e45a721457" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{&quot;attachment_id&quot;:32265762,&quot;asset_id&quot;:5035242,&quot;asset_type&quot;:&quot;Work&quot;,&quot;button_location&quot;:&quot;profile&quot;}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/32265762/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="5035242"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="5035242"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 5035242;

While the term is used in many analyses of young people&#39;s lives, this paper argues that the nature and conceptual meaning of agency remain ambiguous: agency is a ‘black box’ which while fundamental to youth sociology remains unpacked. Ontological and epistemological confusion about the concept means that appeals to agency in contemporary youth sociology beg the very questions they claim to answer. Nevertheless, the concept has become central to the conceptual and political basis of youth research, coming to stand for practices that are ‘bounded’ by structures and resist existing states of affairs. This limits the explanatory power of theoretical frameworks in youth studies, and does not serve the ethical commitments of a politically engaged discipline. Identifying conceptual and normative problems raised by the way agency is deployed, this paper argues that a conceptually powerful and politically engaged youth sociology must move beyond the problem of agency as it stands, and incorporates theoretical perspectives on youth subjectivities and social action that indicate possibilities for how this might take place.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="4399116"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="4399116"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 4399116;

In ‘bringing the body’ to the fore in research, there are epistemological and conceptual tensions between ‘humanist’ methods of qualitative data collection and ‘anti-humanist’ understandings of the body and subjectivity in feminist post-structural theory and research.&nbsp; There are also tensions between accounts of researcher ‘reflexivity’, and the binary opposition between ‘researcher’ and ‘researched’.&nbsp; Sandelowski (2002) and Blumenthal (1999) argue that qualitative methods such as interviews must make room for the multiplicity and variation within and across identities, and factor in that the ‘self’ of the researcher is also multiple and divided. Attending to the affects and relations between the participants in the interview encounter has been proposed as one way forward (Fox &amp; Ward 2008; St. Pierre 2002; Sandelowski 2002). This presentation discusses these tensions as they arose during an empirical research project which attempted to make explicit what a Deleuzian approach means in sociological practice, and asks how a Deleuzian approach to the body and embodiment might be brought to bear in the sociology of youth? What could methodological developments of this kind contribute in the way of previously un-thought questions, practices and knowledge in the sociology of youth?</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="6afce20973e95582e5e3fb871eca4f00" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{&quot;attachment_id&quot;:32392799,&quot;asset_id&quot;:5205334,&quot;asset_type&quot;:&quot;Work&quot;,&quot;button_location&quot;:&quot;profile&quot;}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/32392799/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="5205334"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="5205334"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 5205334;

Drawing on qualitative research, this paper contextualises the current sociological interest in the body, and explores the ways that the body is understood as linking with numerous social forces, particularly gender. While many women in the study discussed feeling under pressure to live up to standards of feminine beauty, a number of men also spoke about experiencing pressure or anxiety related to how their body looks. It is crucial to study the ways both young women and young men experience their bodies in the context of gender and body work, to enable a consideration of the ways masculinities and femininities are co-constructed and negotiated.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="e2d4a338c4a5289ff5ac63d5730e354b" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{&quot;attachment_id&quot;:50735188,&quot;asset_id&quot;:3746783,&quot;asset_type&quot;:&quot;Work&quot;,&quot;button_location&quot;:&quot;profile&quot;}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/50735188/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="3746783"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="3746783"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 3746783;

Body work can be understood as any practices aimed to modify or maintain the body’s appearance, including dieting <br />and exercise. Th rough a Deleuzian approach to bodies, this research focuses on how body work and bodies are understood and lived using concepts of affect and becoming. Through interviews with 22 women and men aged 18-33 in Melbourne, I have explored the affective relations involved in body work, including the ways that health and gender, two major ‘forces’ among many, affect participants, their understandings and experiences of bodies and body work practices and the impact on the ways their bodies may be lived. Using a Deleuzian theorisation of bodies in analysis can assist in opening alternative, and more complex understandings of these themes. Deleuze’s theories and concepts can also provide important insights into how the body can be conceptualised and approached in empirical research.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="57b3e9bdaf841eac4ff91b2324c85007" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{&quot;attachment_id&quot;:30228600,&quot;asset_id&quot;:2175538,&quot;asset_type&quot;:&quot;Work&quot;,&quot;button_location&quot;:&quot;profile&quot;}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/30228600/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="2175538"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="2175538"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 2175538;

</span><span><i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></span></a><span class="js-work-more-abstract-untruncated hidden">In sociology and in contemporary Australian society, the body is central to feministcritiques of sex and gender divisions, since the body is the site of these divisions. It is through the body that these divisions are experienced and lived. While Giddens has been important in terms of bringing body projects (back) into sociology, the limitations to his approach highlight that bodies and body work must be understood as embodied processes<br />which move beyond binarised analyses of the body in society. In this regard, &#39;embodiment theory&#39; and Spinozan and Deleuzian frameworks which focus on the‘becomings’ that may be possible provide important analytic insights. Considering body<br />work using embodiment theory and understanding the body as an ‘event’ of ‘becoming’, along with an interrogation of the contexts and conditions in which body work is gendered and the ways that power is implicated in these processes can further contribute to contemporary understandings of the ways that bodies and gender are lived.<br />Key words: body work, gender, embodiment, becoming, binaries.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="4daecfbffd6732c76f8f18934b555dd4" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{&quot;attachment_id&quot;:20696684,&quot;asset_id&quot;:1256762,&quot;asset_type&quot;:&quot;Work&quot;,&quot;button_location&quot;:&quot;profile&quot;}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/20696684/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="1256762"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="1256762"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 1256762;
