Book Derivas del discurso capitalista  Notas sobre psicoan  lisis y pol  tica

Download or read book Derivas del discurso capitalista Notas sobre psicoan lisis y pol tica written by Jorge Alemán and published by Miguel Gómez Ediciones. This book was released on 2003-12 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Puede nuestra cultura prescindir de la referencia al psicoanálisis? ¿Pueden hacerlo el cine y la literatura, las artes figurativas, la filosofía y las ciencias humanas y sociales? No. Desde 1900, fecha de publicación de La interpretación de los sueños, el psicoanálisis ha penetrado todos los ámbitos de la cultura pública. Jorge Alemán, psicoanalista y gran conocedor de vastos territorios de la cultura y de la política, somete al psicoanálisis a diálogo y crítica. Al texto son invitados Freud y Lacan, pero también Sartre, Heidegger y Foucault; al texto son convocados el 11-S y la crisis argentina. Y toda nuestra modernidad en crisis. Pequeños e incisivos capítulos, agudas conversaciones que exploran, desde la lógica del psicoanálisis, los nudos de nuestra experiencia y los trazos de nuestra esperanza: el lenguaje, el sexo y la muerte, lo imposible y la suicida negación de la imposibilidad, las relaciones entre lo real y la historia. En el centro de ese discurso inquisitivo y brillante se halla "el discurso capitalista": la expresión es de Lacan; su exposición y sus diversificaciones, son la tarea de Alemán. El discurso capitalista no es tanto el discurso de la acumulación: es el de la negación de la imposibilidad; es, por ello, el Discurso del Amo, que pretende colonizar, sin freno ni límite, todo lo real; es, también, el discurso del miedo, y de la gestión del miedo. Es el discurso de la política y de lo político. Es discurso del Uno-Todo, discurso totalitario, nihilizante y aniquilador.

Book Breviario pol  tico de psicoan  lisis

Download or read book Breviario pol tico de psicoan lisis written by Jorge Alemán and published by NED Ediciones. This book was released on 2023-01-17 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: «Cuando un pueblo entiende que a veces la ley no es la ley, sino un instrumento arbitrario del poder, ha realizado una operación subjetiva y política de primer orden». Una vez más, Jorge Alemán cuestiona el discurso capitalista con un golpe de reescritura, en forma de breviario, sobre sus libros anteriores. Su «Breviario» discurre sobre distintas lecturas, interpretaciones y temas cruciales de la actualidad que indagan hasta donde lo político y el psicoanálisis —sin superponerse nunca— entran en un mutuo juego de correspondencias. Al mismo tiempo, logra atar los cables sueltos de sus formulaciones teóricas con el legado de Marx, Freud, Heidegger y Lacan. El célebre psicoanalista y escritor nos brinda así un repertorio de conceptos clave donde amalgama varias secuencias (amor y acontecimiento; machismo; lenguaje inclusivo; el Mal) que van desde sus lecturas sobre la forma neoliberal del Capital hasta el modo en que éstas impactan sobre la vida y las circunstancias sociales y subjetivas. Una obra que se puede leer por bloques temáticos siguiendo el orden sugerido o bien de manera aleatoria, ya que cada una de sus entradas constituyen una unidad en sí misma.

Book Psicoan  lisis en la locura de la raz  n capitalista

Download or read book Psicoan lisis en la locura de la raz n capitalista written by Alejandro del Carril and published by Planeta Argentina. This book was released on 2022-12-01 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: «Alejandro escribe "al corte". Las palabras disparan, las ideas provocan, las preguntas despiertan... y cuando la tensión llega a un grado máximo, desacelera y vuelve a empezar. A la jungla vietnamita del Coronel Kurtz del inicio y la jungla de cemento de las colonias de los replicantes en Blade Runner del final, el autor añade su propia jungla: la cumbia villera, las drogas, las letras de Los Redondos, Freud y sus correspondencias, Lacan y sus nudos, Foucault y Pasolini, Kant con Sade, los gobiernos actuales del mundo occidental, las experiencias de análisis propias y de sus pacientes, las lecturas que lo han influenciado. Todos ellos conviven, con algunas contradicciones que el autor con gran coraje intelectual se encarga de no disimular, en un texto que pone en acto lo que enuncia en teoría: no hay verdadera lucha en el plano lingüístico-ideológico si no se toca la economía libidinal (que también es monetaria). Todo el libro está plagado de viñetas clínicas y experiencias del autor, quien no ha dudado en practicar el imposible que es el psicoanálisis en los lugares más desfavorables y con las poblaciones más vulnerables». Del prólogo de MARÍA MARTHA CHAKER

Book Cultural Materialism

Book excerpt: Cultural Materialism, published in 1979, was Marvin Harris's first full-length explication of the theory with which his work has been associated. While Harris has developed and modified some of his ideas over the past two decades, generations of professors have looked to this volume as the essential starting point for explaining the science of culture to students.

Book The End of the Cognitive Empire

Download or read book The End of the Cognitive Empire written by Boaventura de Sousa Santos and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2018-07-16 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The End of the Cognitive Empire Boaventura de Sousa Santos further develops his concept of the "epistemologies of the South," in which he outlines a theoretical, methodological, and pedagogical framework for challenging the dominance of Eurocentric thought. As a collection of knowledges born of and anchored in the experiences of marginalized peoples who actively resist capitalism, colonialism, and patriarchy, epistemologies of the South represent those forms of knowledge that are generally discredited, erased, and ignored by dominant cultures of the global North. Noting the declining efficacy of established social and political solutions to combat inequality and discrimination, Santos suggests that global justice can only come about through an epistemological shift that guarantees cognitive justice. Such a shift would create new, alternative strategies for political mobilization and activism and give oppressed social groups the means through which to represent the world as their own and in their own terms.

Book Baron de Vastey and the Origins of Black Atlantic Humanism

Download or read book Baron de Vastey and the Origins of Black Atlantic Humanism written by Marlene L. Daut and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-10-31 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on the influential life and works of the Haitian political writer and statesman, Baron de Vastey (1781-1820), in this book Marlene L. Daut examines the legacy of Vastey’s extensive writings as a form of what she calls black Atlantic humanism, a discourse devoted to attacking the enlightenment foundations of colonialism. Daut argues that Vastey, the most important secretary of Haiti’s King Henry Christophe, was a pioneer in a tradition of deconstructing colonial racism and colonial slavery that is much more closely associated with twentieth-century writers like W.E.B. Du Bois, Frantz Fanon, and Aimé Césaire. By expertly forging exciting new historical and theoretical connections among Vastey and these later twentieth-century writers, as well as eighteenth- and nineteenth-century black Atlantic authors, such as Phillis Wheatley, Olaudah Equiano, William Wells Brown, and Harriet Jacobs, Daut proves that any understanding of the genesis of Afro-diasporic thought must include Haiti’s Baron de Vastey.

Book World Anthropologies

Download or read book World Anthropologies written by Gustavo Lins Ribeiro and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-13 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since its inception, anthropology's authority has been based on the assumption that it is a unified discipline emanating from the West. In an age of heightened globalization, anthropologists have failed to discuss consistently the current status of their practice and its mutations across the globe. World Anthropologies is the first book to provoke this conversation from various regions of the world in order to assess the diversity of relations between regional or national anthropologies and a contested, power-laden Western discourse. Can a planetary anthropology cope with both the 'provincial cosmopolitanism' of alternative anthropologies and the 'metropolitan provincialism' of hegemonic schools? How might the resulting 'world anthropologies' challenge the current panorama in which certain allegedly national anthropological traditions have more paradigmatic weight - and hence more power - than others? Critically examining the international dissemination of anthropology within and across national power fields, contributors address these questions and provide the outline for a veritable world anthropologies project.

Download or read book The Forbidden Religion written by Jose M. Herrou Aragon and published by José M. Herrou Aragón. This book was released on 2012-07-03 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gnosis means knowledge. But we are not referring to just any knowledge. Gnosis is knowledge which produces a great transformation in those who receive it. Knowledge capable of nothing less than waking up man and helping him to escape from the prison in which he finds himself. That is why Gnosis has been so persecuted throughout the course of history, because it is knowledge considered dangerous for the religious and political authorities who govern mankind from the shadows. Every time this religion, absolutely different from the rest, appears before man, the other religions unite to try to destroy or hide it again. Primordial Gnosis is the original Gnosis, true Gnosis, eternal Gnosis, Gnostic knowledge in its pure form. Due to multiple persecutions, Primordial Gnosis has been fragmented, distorted and hidden.

Book Potential History

Download or read book Potential History written by Ariella Aïsha Azoulay and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2019-11-19 with total page 657 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A passionately urgent call for all of us to unlearn imperialism and repair the violent world we share, from one of our most compelling political theorists In this theoretical tour-de-force, renowned scholar Ariella Aïsha Azoulay calls on us to recognize the imperial foundations of knowledge and to refuse its strictures and its many violences. Azoulay argues that the institutions that make our world, from archives and museums to ideas of sovereignty and human rights to history itself, are all dependent on imperial modes of thinking. Imperialism has segmented populations into differentially governed groups, continually emphasized the possibility of progress while it tries to destroy what came before, and voraciously seeks out the new by sealing the past away in dusty archival boxes and the glass vitrines of museums. By practicing what she calls potential history, Azoulay argues that we can still refuse the original imperial violence that shattered communities, lives, and worlds, from native peoples in the Americas at the moment of conquest to the Congo ruled by Belgium's brutal King Léopold II, from dispossessed Palestinians in 1948 to displaced refugees in our own day. In Potential History, Azoulay travels alongside historical companions—an old Palestinian man who refused to leave his village in 1948, an anonymous woman in war-ravaged Berlin, looted objects and documents torn from their worlds and now housed in archives and museums—to chart the ways imperialism has sought to order time, space, and politics. Rather than looking for a new future, Azoulay calls upon us to rewind history and unlearn our imperial rights, to continue to refuse imperial violence by making present what was invented as “past” and making the repair of torn worlds the substance of politics.

Book excerpt: "Substantially the book that devotees of the director have been waiting for: a full-length critical work about Ozu's life, career and working methods, buttressed with reproductions of pages from his notebooks and shooting scripts, numerous quotes from co-workers and Japanese critics, a great many stills and an unusually detailed filmography."—Sight and Sound Yasujiro Ozu, the man whom his kinsmen consider the most Japanese for all film directors, had but one major subject, the Japanese family, and but one major theme, its dissolution. The Japanese family in dissolution figures in every one of his fifty-three films. In his later pictures, the whole world exists in one family, the characters are family members rather than members of a society, and the ends of the earth seem no more distant than the outside of the house.

Book Philosophy of Liberation

    Book Details:
  • Author : Enrique Dussel
  • Publisher : Wipf and Stock Publishers
  • Release : 2003-12-02
  • ISBN : 159244427X
  • Pages : 225 pages

Download or read book Philosophy of Liberation written by Enrique Dussel and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2003-12-02 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Argentinean philosopher, theologian, and historian Enrique Dussel understands the present international order as divided into the "culture of the center" -- by which he means the ruling elite of Europe, North America, and Russia -- and "the peoples of the periphery" -- by which he means the populations of Latin America, Africa, and part of Asia, and the oppressed classes (including women and children) throughout the world. In 'Philosophy of Liberation,' he presents a profound analysis of the alienation of peripheral peoples resulting from the imperialism of the center for more than five centuries. Dussel's aim is to demonstrate that the center's historic cultural, military, and economic domination of poor countries is 'philosophically' founded on North Atlantic onthology. By expressing supposedly universal knowledge, European philosophies, argues Dussel, have served to equate the cultural standards, modes of behavior, and rationalistic orientation of the West with human nature and to condemn the unique characteristics of peripheral peoples as "nonbeing, nothing, chaos, irrationality." Hence, Western philosophies have historically legitimated and hidden the domination that oppressed cultures have suffered at the hands of the center. Dussel probes multinational corporations, the communications media, and the armies of the center with their counterparts among the Third World elite. The creation of a just world order in the future, according to Dussel, hinges on the liberation of the periphery, based on a philosophy that is able to "think the world" from the perspective of the poor and to reclaim the Third World's distinct cultural inheritance, which is imbedded in the popular cultures of the poor. Apart from the liberation of the periphery, there will be no future: "the center will feed itself on the sameness it has ingrained within itself. The death of the child, of the poor, will be its own death." This is a disquieting but stimulating book for scholars and advanced students of philosophy, ethics, liberation theology, and global politics.
