Global Manifestos for the Twenty-First Century
Rethinking Culture, Common Struggles, and Future Change
AvSlavoj Zizek,Brian Willemsm. fl.
E-bok
PDF, Engelska, 2023

Läs direkt efter köp
Bringing together over forty original short essays, some academic, others more creative in nature, this collection responds to the political, historical, social, and economic situation in which we find ourselves today.
The editors argue that we are living in a repetition that must be stopped – if our goal is that the signifier "humanity" remains in the following centuries, the time has come to work in the present. The objective is not to deliver precise or quick answers, but to gather varied voices from different continents, bringing together different languages, ideas, practices, theories, thoughts, and desires. In the words of Yanis Varoufakis, "urging us to become agents of a future that ends unnecessary mass suffering and inspire humanity to realise its potential for authentic freedom." To leave the concept of a manifesto open, the contradictory aspects of the chapters are a subject of the manifesto itself. This is a manifesto of contradictions that reflects our reality as well as our struggles and our aspirations.
This unique anthology will appeal to students and scholars across the humanities and social sciences interested in critical theory and social change.

This book sees international academics from across five continents come together to critique the role of the present-day intellectual.Arguing that the elitization of the social sciences and humanities has reached a major climax in the 21st century, owing to the commercialisation of knowledge and the advent of the capitalist model, it asks how intellectuals can free themselves of the ideological labyrinth in which they now find themselves, and reshape the contributions of the social sciences and humanities as adequate tools for the needs of our time. The international academy has the aim and the responsibility to look at, criticise, and work against the dominant logic and to allow knowledge and international debates to reach the farthest corners of the globe. Intellectuals from different areas of the social sciences and humanities offer unique insights along this theme to offer critical analysis and reflection on our current situation, asking: what are now the duties and responsibility of intellectuals?Bringing together relevant and influential voices from diverse perspectives, it will appeal to scholars, intellectuals, and postgraduate students interested in social and political theory, social and political philosophy, epistemology, social class, neoliberalism, and academia.

Political Jouissance

Häftad, Engelska, 2024

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
When we oppose or disagree with something important, do we ever really do it dispassionately? Isn’t setting the world to rights or condemning a political opponent always done with a hint of relish, or at least enthusiasm? This book’s challenging essays explore the modes in which that transgressive pleasure of political ‘jouissance’ operates.Rather than delegitimizing or depoliticising, the tacit enjoyment of outrage can in fact facilitate different forms of engagement. The tendency for groups to be bonded by a common enemy, for example, brings with it a protection from censure or persecution, and a way of alleviating guilt. In this collection, the authors seek out jouissance in the battle against patriarchy, in social revolts, in the age of mechanical surveillance, in the necrosociety of neoliberalism, or the proliferation of conspiracy theories. Drawing on Lacan’s insistence that jouissance is intrinsically political by its nature, we can understand how readily psychoanalytic ideas can be put to use across the geopolitical spectrum.

En El arte de escribir en el siglo XXI. Universidad y nuevos circuitos del conocimiento, Nicol A. Barria-Asenjo profundiza en una pregunta que atraviesa tanto la vida intelectual como la experiencia humana: ¿qué significa escribir cuando las instituciones que históricamente organizaron el saber se encuentran en crisis? A partir de una prosa que combina reflexión teórica, biografía intelectual y crítica institucional, la autora examina la escritura como un territorio donde se entrelazan la herida y la reparación, la lucidez y el desgarro, la intimidad y la responsabilidad pública. La escritura aparece aquí como un gesto que nos constituye y nos expone, pero también como una práctica capaz de resistir las lógicas de homogeneización que hoy atraviesan a la Universidad, la producción académica y los nuevos regímenes tecnológicos.El libro recorre tres grandes ejes: - La escritura como experiencia existencial, donde se indaga su potencia creadora y su dimensión subjetiva. - Las batallas escriturales del presente, marcadas por la irrupción de la inteligencia artificial, la aceleración digital y la transformación de la autoría. - La Universidad del siglo XXI, analizada como espacio ideológico, campo de tensiones y escenario de disputas por el sentido del conocimiento.Con una mirada crítica y a la vez profundamente humana, Barria-Asenjo invita a repensar la relación entre palabra, poder y porvenir. Este libro no solo interpela a quienes escriben, investigan o enseñan: convoca a toda persona que busque comprender cómo se transforma el acto de pensar y decir en un mundo que cambia a una velocidad inédita.

The tendency for groups to be bonded by a common enemy, for example, brings with it a protection from censure or persecution, and a way of alleviating guilt. In this collection, the authors seek out jouissance in the battle against patriarchy, in social revolts, in the age of mechanical surveillance, in the necrosociety of neoliberalism, or the proliferation of conspiracy theories. Drawing on Lacan''s insistence that jouissance is intrinsically political by its nature, we can understand how readily psychoanalytic ideas can be put to use across the geopolitical spectrum.

En El arte de escribir en el siglo XXI. Universidad y nuevos circuitos del conocimiento, Nicol A. Barria-Asenjo profundiza en una pregunta que atraviesa tanto la vida intelectual como la experiencia humana: ¿qué significa escribir cuando las instituciones que históricamente organizaron el saber se encuentran en crisis? A partir de una prosa que combina reflexión teórica, biografía intelectual y crítica institucional, la autora examina la escritura como un territorio donde se entrelazan la herida y la reparación, la lucidez y el desgarro, la intimidad y la responsabilidad pública. La escritura aparece aquí como un gesto que nos constituye y nos expone, pero también como una práctica capaz de resistir las lógicas de homogeneización que hoy atraviesan a la Universidad, la producción académica y los nuevos regímenes tecnológicos.El libro recorre tres grandes ejes: - La escritura como experiencia existencial, donde se indaga su potencia creadora y su dimensión subjetiva. - Las batallas escriturales del presente, marcadas por la irrupción de la inteligencia artificial, la aceleración digital y la transformación de la autoría. - La Universidad del siglo XXI, analizada como espacio ideológico, campo de tensiones y escenario de disputas por el sentido del conocimiento.Con una mirada crítica y a la vez profundamente humana, Barria-Asenjo invita a repensar la relación entre palabra, poder y porvenir. Este libro no solo interpela a quienes escriben, investigan o enseñan: convoca a toda persona que busque comprender cómo se transforma el acto de pensar y decir en un mundo que cambia a una velocidad inédita.
