Video Game Chronotopes and Social Justice
Video Game Chronotopes and Social Justice examines how the chronotope, which literally means timespace, is an effective interpretive lens through which to understand the cultural and ideological significance of video games. Using slow readings attuned to deconstruction along the lines of post-structuralist theory, gender studies, queer studies, continental philosophy, and critical theory, Mike Piero exposes the often-overlooked misogyny, heteronormativity, racism, and patriarchal structures present in many Triple-A video games through their arrangement of timespace itself. Beyond understanding time and space as separate mechanics and dimensions, Piero reunites time and space through the analysis of six chronotopesof the bonfire, the abject, the archipelago, the fart as pharmakon, madness, and coupled lovetoward a poetic meaning making that is at the heart of play itself, all in affirmation of life, equity, and justice.
