Download or read book Adorno Foucault and the Critique of the West written by Deborah Cook and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2018-11-27 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The alliance of critical theory between Frankfurt and Paris Adorno, Foucault and the Critique of the West argues that critical theory continues to offer valuable resources for critique and contestation during this turbulent period. To assess these resources, it examines the work of two of the twentieth century's more prominent social theorists: Theodor W. Adorno and Michel Foucault. Although Adorno was situated squarely in the Marxist tradition that Foucault would occasionally challenge, Deborah Cook demonstrates that their critiques of our current predicament are complementary in important respects. Among other things, these critiques converge in their focus on the historical conditions-economic in Adorno and political in Foucault-that gave rise to the racist and authoritarian tendencies that continue to blight the West. Cook also shows that, when Adorno and Foucault plumb the economic and political forces that have shaped our identities, they offer remarkably similar answers to the perennial question: What is to be done?

Download or read book Launch Your Self Publishing Journey written by Monica F. Anderson and published by TyMAC Books. This book was released on 2022-05-09 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why would anyone self-publish? There are many reasons. Some have tried traditional publishing and grown weary of waiting for responses to their submissions and most have witnessed the success stories of countless self-published authors. Those are legitimate reasons to explore self-publishing. Many well-known authors like Margaret Atwood, Robert Kiyosaki, Zane, Beatrix Potter, E.L. James, and Wayne Dyer self-published their way to tremendous literary success. Having the confidence to self-publish does not make you a failure or vain. It gives you more control over how your message reaches readers. There are numerous benefits to self-publishing, including: • Fast track the publishing process. • Retain full ownership of your intellectual property. • Set a competitive price and offer discounts. • The right to decide which format(s) to offer (audio, paperback, e-book). • Keep more of the profits by eliminating gatekeepers. Many authors are doing it successfully, and so can you. With over a dozen published books between them and years of writing experience, Dr. mOe Anderson and Dr. M. Stolard are positioned to help others avoid the mistakes commonly made by self-published authors. In this book, they share a step-by-step guide with clear examples from their publishing successes (and failures). This book bridges the gap between your manuscript and a finished, professional-looking book!
