Описание: Political Monsters and Democratic Imagination explores the democratic thought of Spinoza and its relation to the thought of William Blake, Victor Hugo, and James Joyce. As a group, these visionaries articulate: a concept of power founded not on strength or might but on social cooperation; a principle of equality based not on the identity of individuals with one another but on the difference between any individual and the intellectual power of society as a whole; an understanding of thought as a process that operates between rather than within individuals; and a theory of infinite truth, something individuals only partially glimpse from their particular cultural situations. For Blake, God is the constellation of individual human beings, whose collective imagination produces revolutionary change. In Hugo’s novel, Jean Valjean learns that the greatest truth about humanity lies in the sewer or among the lowest forms of social existence. For Joyce, Leopold and Molly Bloom are everybody and nobody, singular beings whose creative power and truth is beyond categories and social hierarchies.

Описание: The liberal governance of the nineteenth-century state and city depended on the "rule of freedom." As a form of rule it relied on the production of certain kinds of citizens and patterns of social life, which in turn depended on transforming both the material form of the city (its layout, architecture, infrastructure) and the ways it was inhabited and imagined by its leaders, citizens and custodians. Focusing mainly on London and Manchester, but with reference also to Glasgow, Dublin, Paris, Vienna, colonial India, and even contemporary Los Angeles, Patrick Joyce creatively and originally develops Foucauldian approaches to historiography to reflect on the nature of modern liberal society. His consideration of such "artifacts" as maps and censuses, sewers and markets, public libraries and parks, and of civic governments and city planning, are intertwined with theoretical interpretations to examine both the impersonal, often invisible forms of social direction and control built into the infrastructure of modern life and the ways in which these mechanisms shape cultural and social life and engender popular resistance.

Описание:
REALty Feng Shui is a very practical guide about how to leverage real estate profits using the ancient Chinese design art of feng shui. From the color of the front door to meeting dynamics, REALty Feng Shui provides buyers and sellers of real estate and their agents with a way to improve the property, the process and profits simultaneously with greater win-win satisfaction. REALty Feng Shui de-mystifies feng shui, explains it in clear and modern terms and applies it in particular to the rapid turn-around of the real estate market. Though it may seem there are innumerable and inscrutable rules that constitute feng shui, the authors present a simple and straightforward method for using feng shui in a contemporary perspective and applying it easily to enhance the experience of buying and selling real estate.
Authors, Anita and Johndennis Govert, are experienced realty agents as well as long time masters of the art of feng shui. They discuss how feng shui works, and how feng shui sees both clients and the environment as webs of relationships rather than as disconnected pieces and persons. The authors introduce three different feng shui world views and provide a simple way to assess the underlying feng shui dynamics of any building by studying the history of its tenants. On the real estate transaction side, the authors present how to accelerate the sales process holistically. They discuss how to use feng shui to manage business meetings to happen at the right places and times. Also, the authors present how to stage homes for quicker sales and analyze how to move properties that are slow to sell by making simple feng shui changes. Finally, the authors present how realty investors and agents can incorporate feng shui awareness into long term business strategies to improve their continuing profits, process and results in the realty marketplace.

Why did Black-Korean tensions result in violent clashes in Los Angeles but not in New York City? In a book based on fieldwork and on a nationwide database he constructed to track such conflicts, Patrick D. Joyce goes beyond sociological and cultural explanations. No Fire Next Time shows how political practices and urban institutions can channel racial and ethnic tensions into protest or, alternately, leave them free to erupt violently. Few encounters demonstrate this connection better than those between African Americans and Korean Americans.Cities like New York, where politics is noisy, contentious, and involves people at the grassroots, have seen extensive Black boycotts of Korean-owned businesses (usually small grocery stores). African Americans in Los Angeles have sustained few long-term boycotts of Korean American businesses—but the absence of "routine" contention there goes hand in hand with the large-scale riots of 1992 and continuous acts of individual violence.In demonstrating how conflicts between these groups were intimately tied to their political surroundings, this book yields practical lessons for the future. City governments can do little to fight widening economic inequality in an increasingly diverse nation, Joyce writes. But officials and activists can restructure political institutions to provide the foundations for new multiracial coalitions.
