Failure - Bok av Arjun Appadurai - Häftad

Failure - Bok av Arjun Appadurai - Häftad

Wall Street and Silicon Valley - the two worlds this book examines - promote the illusion that scarcity can and should be eliminated in the age of seamless \flow.\ Instead, Appadurai and Alexander propose a theory of habitual and strategic failure by exploring debt, crisis, digital divides, and (dis)connectivity. Moving between the planned obsolescence and deliberate precariousness of digital technologies and the \too big to fail\ logic of the Great Recession, they argue that the sense of failure..

Foreverism - Bok av Grafton Tanner - Häftad

What do cinematic \universes,\ cloud archiving, and voice cloning have in common? They're in the business of foreverizing - the process of revitalizing things that have degraded, failed, or disappeared so that they can remain active in the present. To foreverize something is to reanimate it, to enclose and protect it from time and the elements, and to eradicate the feeling of nostalgia that accompanies loss.In a culture anxious about nostalgia, things are considered failures if they don't last..

What position does America occupy in the recent history of Western philosophy?  At once the destination for a series of fantasies and the place from which a new relationship to thought originated, America incarnates a dark continent whose strangeness and singularity has driven thinkers outside of their own philosophical comfort zone - often forcing them to show anger, anxiety or desire towards what they considered a challenge or a threat. This book provides a mapping of this complex relationship..

Against Decolonisation - Bok av Doug Stokes - Häftad

Against Decolonisation - Bok av Doug Stokes - Häftad

Across Universities, fringe theories became the new orthodoxy with a cadre of activists, backed by university technocrats, adopting a binary worldview of moral certainty, sin, and deconstructive redemption through Western self-erasure.This hard-hitting book surveys these developments for the first time. It..

Democracy Needs Religion - Bok av Hartmut (Friedrich Schiller University Jena Rosa - Häftad

Democracy Needs Religion - Bok av Hartmut (Friedrich Schiller University Jena Rosa - Häftad

What role does religion play in modern societies? Is it merely an anachronism that hinders our economic growth? Is it a kind of superstition that people should be left to enjoy in private but should refrain from discussing in public? It is no secret that the Christian churches in Western societies have massive problems - quite apart from the recent scandals. Shrinking congregations are just one sign of their diminishing relevance. But what would happen to democracy if the resonance of religion were..

Excluding the Jew Within Us - Bok av Jean-Luc Nancy - Häftad

Excluding the Jew Within Us - Bok av Jean-Luc Nancy - Häftad

Why does anti-Semitism seem to be so deeply engrained in our societies, our institutions and our attitudes? To answer this question we need to look beyond our current practices and see that anti-Semitism has much deeper roots - that it is woven into the very structures of Western thought.Jean-Luc Nancy argues that anti-Semitism emerged from the conflictual conjunction of two responses to the eclipse of archaic cultures. The Greek and the Jewish responses both affirmed a humanity freed from myth but..
