A Manifesto For Cyborgs by Donna J. Haraway
Science, Technology, and Socialist-Feminism in the Late Twentieth Century
A feminist essay that uses the figure of the cyborg — a hybrid of machine and organism — to tear down rigid dualisms (human/machine, nature/culture, male/female) and to argue against essentialist identities, proposing instead pragmatic, coalition-based politics grounded in affinity and situated knowledges; it reads technoscience as both a site of domination and a resource for feminist socialist transformation, urging strategic, ironic partial identities and new forms of solidarity to resist existing power structures.
