Book Adi  s al capitalismo

Download or read book Adi s al capitalismo written by Jérôme Baschet and published by NED Ediciones. This book was released on 2015-03 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Qué implica replantearse la posibilidad de un mundo liberado del capitalismo? En el marco de una crisis que marca los límites del pensamiento neoliberal, los nuevos movimientos sociales –excluidos, sin papeles, sin empleo, sin vivienda, migrantes, pueblos indígenas– proponen iniciativas desde abajo. Jérôme Baschet analiza en este libro las experimentaciones sociales y políticas de las comunidades zapatistas, en las que participa desde hace años, para reabrir el horizonte de los posibles. Pero no establece como modelo universal estas experiencias de autogestión que se llevan a cabo en esa región de México, ni construye un gran relato de futuro, sino más bien al contrario, las condena a disolverse en un nuevo Estado, incluso proletario. La crisis mundial no afecta a todos de la misma manera. Las mutaciones del mundo del trabajo y subjetividades dispuestas a participar de nuevas formas de producción y consumo rediseñan nuestro presente. Sin embargo, no han madurado aún los proyectos de emancipación. Gracias a un esfuerzo poco habitual, que conjuga proyección teórica y conocimiento directo de una de las experiencias de autonomía más reflexivas de las últimas décadas, Jérôme Baschet propone un balance crítico del zapatismo y analiza la organización política de esas comunidades autónomas federadas que se hicieron cargo de los servicios de salud, educación, policía y justicia. Más allá de las recetas revolucionarias del siglo XX, Baschet explicita las características más complejas del capitalismo financiarizado y explora vías alternativas para la elaboración práctica de nuevas formas de vida.

Book Gald  s and Darwin

Download or read book Gald s and Darwin written by T. E. Bell and published by Tamesis Books. This book was released on 2006 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Darwinian theory - the big idea of the nineteenth century - and its impact on the writing of Benito Pérez Galdós. Despite the fact that Darwinian theory was perhaps the big idea of the nineteenth century, most critics in the past have assumed that Benito Pérez Galdós would have remained unaffected by this scientific and philosophical revolution. This work contends otherwise, charting the influence of evolutionary theories on Galdós throughout his literary career. From his adaptation of the early nineteenth-century costumbristas' depiction of social species into a more sophisticated portrayal of Madrid society to his treatment of shifting social forces at a time of major socio-economic change, Galdós's outlook is shown to be deeply enmeshed in the Darwinian debate. Attention is paid not only to the hypotheses of Darwin himself, but also for instance to Ernst Haeckel's evolutionary thought, to Herbert Spencer's social Darwinism, and to the radical histology of Santiago Ramón y Cajal. Galdós and Darwin discusses how Spain's greatest novelist since Cervantes imaginatively reworked these epoch-making theories and investigates the impact of science on culture as the Spanish nation approached the twentieth century. T. E. BELL completed his Ph.D. under the supervision of Professor Nicholas Round at Sheffield University.

Book Savage Appetites

    Book Details:
  • Author : Rachel Monroe
  • Publisher : Scribner
  • Release : 2020-07-07
  • ISBN : 1501188895
  • Pages : 288 pages

Download or read book Savage Appetites written by Rachel Monroe and published by Scribner. This book was released on 2020-07-07 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “necessary and brilliant” (NPR) exploration of our cultural fascination with true crime told through four “enthralling” (The New York Times Book Review) narratives of obsession. In Savage Appetites, Rachel Monroe links four criminal roles—Detective, Victim, Defender, and Killer—to four true stories about women driven by obsession. From a frustrated and brilliant heiress crafting crime-scene dollhouses to a young woman who became part of a Manson victim’s family, from a landscape architect in love with a convicted murderer to a Columbine fangirl who planned her own mass shooting, these women are alternately mesmerizing, horrifying, and sympathetic. A revealing study of women’s complicated relationship with true crime and the fear and desire it can inspire, together these stories provide a window into why many women are drawn to crime narratives—even as they also recoil from them. Monroe uses these four cases to trace the history of American crime through the growth of forensic science, the evolving role of victims, the Satanic Panic, the rise of online detectives, and the long shadow of the Columbine shooting. Combining personal narrative, reportage, and a sociological examination of violence and media in the 20th and 21st centuries, Savage Appetites is a “corrective to the genre it interrogates” (The New Statesman), scrupulously exploring empathy, justice, and the persistent appeal of crime.

Book The Object of the Atlantic

Download or read book The Object of the Atlantic written by Rachel Price and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 2014-11-30 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Object of the Atlantic is a wide-ranging study of the transition from a concern with sovereignty to a concern with things in Iberian Atlantic literature and art produced between 1868 and 1968. Rachel Price uncovers the surprising ways that concrete aesthetics from Cuba, Brazil, and Spain drew not only on global forms of constructivism but also on a history of empire, slavery, and media technologies from the Atlantic world. Analyzing Jose Marti’s notebooks, Joaquim de Sousandrade’s poetry, Ramiro de Maeztu’s essays on things and on slavery, 1920s Cuban literature on economic restructuring, Ferreira Gullar’s theory of the “non-object,” and neoconcrete art, Price shows that the turn to objects—and from these to new media networks—was rooted in the very philosophies of history that helped form the Atlantic world itself.
