Book excerpt: "Ce livre propose de montrer qu'avant d'être une oeuvre de génie civil, la gestion de l'eau est surtout une construction sociale. Dimension trop souvent oubliée. Ce livre montre comment l'eau s'immisce dans les conflits d'intérêt, dans les oppositions de force, et est aussi un instrument de résistance. Sa gestion reste un objet de pouvoir sur les sujets, leurs activités et leurs imaginaires. Si partager l'eau c'est partager le pouvoir, posséder l'eau c'est aussi posséder son pouvoir."--
Download or read book A History of Everyday Things written by Daniel Roche and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2000-03-09 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Things which we regard as the everyday objects of consumption (and hence re-purchase), and essential to any decent, civilised lifestyle, have not always been so: in former times, everyday objects would have passed from one generation to another, without anyone dreaming of acquiring new ones. How, therefore, have people in the modern world become 'prisoners of objects', as Rousseau put it? The celebrated French cultural historian Daniel Roche answers this fundamental question using insights from economics, politics, demography and geography, as well as his own extensive historical knowledge. Professor Roche places familiar objects and commodities - houses, clothes, water - in their wider historical and anthropological contexts, and explores the origins of some of the daily furnishings of modern life. A History of Everyday Things is a pioneering essay that sheds light on the origins of the consumer society and its social and political repercussions, and thereby the birth of the modern world.

Download or read book Source Material for the Social and Ceremonial Life of the Choctaw Indians written by John R. Swanton and published by University of Alabama Press. This book was released on 2001-04-05 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long considered the undisputed authority on the Indians of the southern United States, anthropologist John Swanton published this history as the Smithsonian Institution's Bureau of American Ethnology (BAE) Bulletin 103 in 1931. Swanton's descriptions are drawn from earlier records—including those of DuPratz and Romans—and from Choctaw informants. His long association with the Choctaws is evident in the thorough detailing of their customs and way of life and in his sensitivity to the presentation of their native culture. Included are descriptions of such subjects as clans, division of labor between sexes, games, religion, war customs, and burial rites. The Choctaws were, in general, peaceful farmers living in Mississippi and southwestern Alabama until they were moved to Oklahoma in successive waves beginning in 1830, after the treaty of Dancing Rabbit Creek. This edition includes a new foreword by Kenneth Carleton placing Swanton's work in the context of his times. The continued value of Swanton's original research makes Source Material the most comprehensive book ever published on the Choctaw people.

Download or read book Rad Hourani NEUTRALITY written by Arsenal Contemporary Art and published by Arsenal Contemporary Art. This book was released on 2015-11-30 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rad Hourani’s “Neutrality” exhibition depicts the realities of an egalitarian society as a journey from childhood to adulthood through his unrestricted works of art that welcome visitors into an environment that evokes a sense of openness and possibility. Rad observes the tangible constraints imposed by categorizations, which influence the trajectory of his neutralization theory. His critique of the discriminatory basis of nationalism, racism, sexism, ageism, ableism, and authoritarianism places his conceptions within a framework based on neutrality as a tool for uniting all. Humanity, as seen by Rad, is an interconnected ecosystem of cultures’ creativity expressed through music, food, dance, and art. His inquiry has led him to conclude that if we continue to marginalize with labeled codes, we will further privilege those who govern us and divide to concur. The artist’s basis maintains that all individuals are multi-faceted and unique. His perspective validates humans as equal participants in the collective sphere, where all living species are in sync. Rad’s manifestations pose existential and operational questions. His vision challenges institutional formalism and aesthetics, paving the way for portraying a neutral archetypal psyche. His ongoing conceptualization concedes the power of visual consumption to initiate conversations and share knowledge that celebrates a non-conformist sense of belonging. Through this multidisciplinary exhibition of contemporary art, Rad Hourani renders proposals for aspects of living a peaceful life via the media of painting, sculpture, photography, sound, and video at Arsenal Contemporary Art. The individual artworks are presented in six installation segments (“welcome,” “the child room,” “society,” “alert,” “human,” and “the adult room”), which together form a monumental work of art that illuminates the underlying principles of our socioeconomic systems.

Ce sera, pour Hobbes, ce royaume des Fees auquel, dans Ie Leviathan, il compare l'Eglise; pour Descartes Ie royaume de l'enfance et du prejuge. II s'agit du lieu d'une imagination dereglee, malsaine, ou regnent les pieges d'un langage vain, par lequel des esprits qui se pretendent savants seduisent, egarent, en croyant et en faisant croire qu'un objet reel ou possible correspond aux mots dont ils se servent. On n'est pas delivre de ce qu'on nie: Ie monde de Descartes sera un monde feint, l'imagination va constituer Ie centre de la pensee de Hume et se confondre chez lui avec la raison. Les monades seront, de l'aveu de Leibniz, des fictions commodes, et Kant fera de la force d'i magination la charniere entre l'intuition et Ie concept.
