Описание:

The films from Pixar Animation Studios belong to the most popular family films today. From Monsters Inc to Toy Story and Wall-E, the animated characters take on human qualities that demand more than just cultural analysis. What animates the human subject according to Pixar? What are the ideological implications?

Pixar with Lacan has the double aim of analyzing the Pixar films and exemplifying important psychoanalytic concepts (the voice, the gaze, partial object, the Other, the object a, the primal father, the name-of-the-father, symbolic castration, the imaginary/ the real/ the symbolic, desire and drive, the four discourses, masculine/feminine), examining the ideological implications of the images of human existence given in the films.

Описание: A corporation intends to steal our airwaves The President of the herculean Atlas Radio Company, beautiful, headstrong Dabny Talbett schemes to privatize the nation's airwaves. She enlists Hondo Roache, a high powered lobbyist to wrest the needed votes from two mulish senators. Opposing Dabny is Rafe Nailer, the dogged leader of the Public Cause Group. He and his feisty fianc e, Vera Standfore sometimes fight with words, other times they fight with their fists. Throughout the story appear the relentless Talk Radio Hosts. Their outlandish bloviations demonstrate a truly unhinged viewpoint, laughably so. The Hosts make millions for Dabny. She'll make millions more when she owns the airwaves. But she'll lose millions if Rafe wins the battle. ATLAS SULKS is timely. It's also slyly subtle and deviously funny. Enjoy

Описание:

In Western societies, the capitalist system is facing a level of distrust not seen in decades. Economic inequality is rampant. Life expectancy is falling. The environment is being destroyed for profit. Political power is wielded by wealthy elites and big business. For capitalism's critics, it is clear that the system is not designed to help average people. Their solution is a top-to-bottom reform of the "free market" along more socialist and democratic lines. For proponents of capitalism, however, this system has been the greatest engine of economic and social progress in history. Not only has capitalism made all of us materially better off, its ideals are responsible for everything from women's rights to a cleaner environment to political freedoms. The answer to society's current ills is more capitalism, more economic freedom, and more free markets.

The twenty-fifth semi-annual Munk Debate, held on December 4, 2019, pits editorial director and publisher of the Nation Katrina vanden Heuvel and former finance minister of Greece Yanis Varoufakis against Harvard professor Arthur C. Brooks and New York Times columnist David Brooks to debate whether the capitalist system is broken.

Описание: The poems and photographs in this book portray not only a state but a state of mind. For several decades, the author traveled the backroads and crossroads of South Carolina, observing and experiencing the thoughts and feelings of its disparate people - at times gracious, sometimes troublesome, occasionally alarming and regretful, always deeply engrained, and never negotiable. In these pages, you will see how love and hate and ignorance and gentility do a strange, awesome dance together, in a place where time and change must wait. Like other states, South Carolina boasts its share of official totems: its state song, state bird, nickname, beverage, fish, pet, and other fond frivolities. But after reading this collection of thoughts and images from times past and present, the reader will realize that every state, like this one, must have clearly adopted schizophrenia as its official condition: "a breakdown in the relation between thought, emotion, and behavior, leading to faulty perceptions and inappropriate actions and feelings." That`s the kind of condition that only a volume of poems and accompanying photographs can handle: raw, in depth, stark, and cushioned with affection. This book takes the reader on an intellectual journey of the state of things in years past, beginning in the soft and insouciant foothills of the Upcountry to the preening, portentous politicians, who populate the lake-laden Midlands, and finally to the languid and languorous Lowcountry. If it`s true, as they say, that life is mostly a collection of memories, then this slim volume offers its readers a profundity of historical insight, revelation, and--ultimately--truth.

Описание: What are we doing when taking psychoanalysis from the couch to the analysis of society, culture, and arts? How is it possible to do so? How is it possible to move from singular experiences to universal structures detected in culture and society? Could psychoanalysis applied to art works become more sensitive to their aesthetics form? Psychoanalysis is often disclaimed as non-scientific, since its main object – the unconscious – has no positive existence. This book, however, proposes psychoanalysis to be a “science of the signifier”. It takes as its object the signifier – the signifying part of the sign – insisting that it always says more (or less) than intended, because its very materiality carries unintended messages. By defining the object of psychoanalysis as the signifier, this volume argues that we can speak of psychoanalysis as a science, even if it is closer to semiotics than biology. Analysing the Cultural Unconscious builds on this idea by arguing that the analysis of the signifier is the way to understand not only the individual unconscious, but also the cultural one. Replacing a person’s monologue on the couch with ideology criticism or a piece of art, applied psychoanalysis allows us to analyse culture and the arts in a new way, uncovering the cultural unconscious.

Описание:

Increasingly in the West, China is being characterized as a threat to the liberal international order, one that must be overcome through economic, political, technological, and even military means. For those who believe that the policies of the Chinese Communist Party pose a threat to free and open societies, the U.S. and like-minded nations must band together to preserve a rules-based international order. For others, this approach spells disaster; it ignores the history and dynamics propelling China's rise to superpower status. Rather than threatening the post-war order, China is its best, and maybe only, guarantor in an era of declining U.S. leadership, increased regional instability, and slowing global growth.

The twenty-fourth semi-annual Munk Debate, held on May 9, 2019, pits former Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs H. R. McMaster and director for Chinese strategy at the D.C.-based Hudson Institute think tank Michael Pillsbury against former President of the United Nations Security Council Kishore Mahbubani and president of one of China's top independent think tanks, the Center for China Globalization, Huiyao Wang to debate the threat of China to the liberal international order.
