«Je chante le corps critique» is Claude Guillon's essay on the political uses of the body, published by H&O in paperback (412 pages, in French).
Guillon takes the body as a space of reaffirmation against a society that devalues it through work, pollutants, advertising and fashion. Guillon analyzes resistance to dehumanization, from queer activists to women reclaiming their bodies, through sociology and social history, and presents them as a collective battlefield.
Published in 2008; the full subtitle is «Les usages politiques du corps». It is framed within sociology and body studies.
For a general audience interested in sociology and forms of protest linked to the body.
