在女权主义和反种族主义文献中，以移情为前提的情感自我转化被理解为实现社会正义的核心。通过将女权主义和反种族主义理论中关于同理心的辩论与国际发展中的同理心修辞并置，特别是关于“沉浸”的写作，本文探讨了当后殖民主义和新自由主义的关系被置于前景中时，同理心的运作如何被重新概念化。我认为，在国际援助机构运作的新自由主义经济中，同理心的自我转化可以通过修复不平等情感主体的方式变得商品化。同理心在这里的作用与其说是产生更多的主体间关系和认识方式，不如说是增强发展专业人员的道德和情感能力。然而，我认为，正是在情感和新自由主义的矛盾、紧张和矛盾中，才能培养出不同的思考和感受跨国遭遇的空间。
Affective self-transformation premised on empathy has been understood within feminist and anti-racist literatures as central to achieving social justice. Through juxtaposing debates about empathy within feminist and anti-racist theory with rhetorics of empathy in international development, and particularly writing about ‘immersions’, this article explores how the workings of empathy might be reconceptualised when relations of postcoloniality and neoliberalism are placed in the foreground. I argue that in the neoliberal economy in which the international aid apparatus operates, empathetic self-transformation can become commodified in ways that fix unequal affective subjects. Empathy may function here less to produce more intersubjective relations and ways of knowing than it does to augment the moral and affective capacities of development professionals. Yet, I suggest, it is in the ambivalences, tensions and contradictions of both emotion and neoliberalism that spaces for thinking and feeling transnational encounters differently might be cultivated.
