Download or read book The Time of the Tribes written by Michel Maffesoli and published by SAGE. This book was released on 1996-02-27 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this exciting book Michel Maffesoli argues that the conventional approaches to understanding solidarity and society are deeply flawed. He contends that mass culture has disintegrated and that today social existence is conducted through fragmented tribal groupings, organized around the catchwords, brand-names and sound-bites of consumer culture. The book provides a rich backcloth against which to consider the rise of `identity politics' and the `proliferation of lifestyle cultures'.
Download or read book France Since 1945 written by Robert Gildea and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1996 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The last fifty years have seen immense challenges for the French: constructing a new European order, building a modern economy, searching for a stable political system. It has also been a time of anxiety and doubt. The French have had to come to terms with the legacy of the German Occupation, the political and social implications of the influx of foreign immigrants, the destruction of traditional rural life, and the threat of Anglo American culture to French language and civilization. Robert Gildea's account examines French politics, society, and culture as well as France's role in the world from 1945 to 1995. He looks at France's attempt to recover national greatness after the Second World War; its attempt to deal with the fear of German resurgence by building the European Community; the Algerian war; and the later development of a neo-colonialism to preserve its influence in Africa and the Pacific. He traces the career of General de Gaulle, the revolution of 1968, and the trend towards both political consensus and political disillusionment. He also examines the rise and fall of the French intellectual, the changing cultural policy of the state, and the threat of feminism, regionalism, and multiculturalism to the ideal of the 'One and Indivisible Republic'.
Download or read book France s Colonial Legacies written by Fiona Barclay and published by University of Wales Press. This book was released on 2013-10-15 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an era of commemoration, France’s Colonial Legacies contributes to the debates taking place in France about the place of empire in the contemporary life of the nation, debates that have been underway since the 1990s and that now reach across public life and society with manifestations in the French parliament, media and universities. France’s empire and the gradual process of its loss is one of the defining narratives of the contemporary nation, contributing to the construction of its image both on the international stage and at home. While certain intellectuals present the imperial period as an historical irrelevance that ended in the years following the Second World War, the contested legacies of France’s colonies continue to influence the development of French society in the view of scholars of the postcolonial. This volume surveys the memorial practices and discourses that are played out in a range of arenas, drawing on the expertise of researchers working in the fields of politics, media, cultural studies, literature and film to offer a wide-ranging picture of remembrance in contemporary France.

Book excerpt: Gary Genosko's timely study traces McLuhan's influence on the work of Jean Baudrillard, arguing that McLuhan's ideas have been far more influential than hitherto imagined in the development of postmodern theory. Genosko explores how McLuhan's ideas persist and are distorted through Baudrillard's work.

Download or read book Apprendre Vivre written by Gil Trigo and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2011-12 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le livre que vous vous apprêtez à lire a été écrit en 1985 et, pour toutes sortes de bonnes ou mauvaises raisons, est demeuré au fond d'un tiroir jusqu'à aujourd'hui. Son caractère intemporel et universel est basé sur une considération générale de la spiritualité, de la science et de la réflexion personnelle. Aujourd'hui, comme il y a 30 ans, on peut remarquer que «plus ça change et plus c'est pareil» puisque les gens n'apprennent pas, ou si peu, de leurs expériences. Malgré toutes les révolutions culturelles ou technologiques, si nous regardons au plus profond de notre être, nous remarquerons que ce que nous recherchons vraiment c'est la paix intérieure, comme le disent les mystiques de tous temps. Ce petit livre vise justement à vous amener sur des sentiers qui vous permettront de revenir à l'essentiel c'est-à-dire de rechercher à apprendre à vivre à partir de l'intérieur et non de l'extérieur en gardant à l'esprit que ce que vous êtes en conscience s'extériorise dans votre vie au quotidien. Rappelez-vous que le hasard n'existe pas et que, malgré la croyance populaire, nous ne savons pas ce qui est bon pour nous ou ce dont nous avons réellement besoin.

Download or read book A Future of Faith written by Pope Francis and published by St. Martin's Essentials. This book was released on 2018-08-07 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The beloved people's Pope reveals his views on the contentious political issues of our time—from immigration to climate change. Pope Francis met with French reporter and sociologist Dominique Wolton for an unprecedented series of twelve fascinating and timely conversations—open dialogues revolving around the political, cultural, and religious issues dominating communication and conflict around the world—now published in A Future of Faith: The Path of Change in Politics and Society. Inspiring and insightful, Pope Francis’s views on immigration, poverty, diversity, globalization, and more are borne from his Christian faith and basic humanity. Meeting the challenges of the twenty-first century requires compassion for those in need, a willingness to work towards common goals without domineering other cultures, and the ability to negotiate with trust, respect, and dignity. And for the first time, Pope Francis shares insights into his own personality, and the formation of his faith, including his experience with psychotherapy, and some of the most important women in his upbringing. Controversial, bold, personal, and illuminating— A Future of Faith will serve to be essential reading for not only Catholics, but those who want to see how the “people’s pope” confronts the social injustices of the world with the foresight to create positive change.
