Abstract

Collaborative Projects - An Interdisciplinary Study presents research in disciplines ranging from Education, Psychotherapy and Social Work to Literacy and anti-poverty Project Management to Social Movement studies and Political Science. All the contributions are unified by use of the concept of 'project'. 'Project' is 'leading activity' for Child Development, whilst 'life project' may play a crucial role in personal development and Psychotherapy; the social fabric of a community can be understood as woven from projects which may be sustained by NGOs, or develop from social movements to institutions. Giving concrete content to the concept of 'project' in each domain of research, opens a prospect of a genuinely interdisciplinary human science. Contributors are: Igor Arievitch, Michael Arnold, Lynn Beaton, William Blanton, Andy Blunden, Michael Cole, Brecht De Smet, Natalia Gajdamaschko, Virginia Gordon, Manfred Holodynski, Naja Berg Hougaard, Vera John-Steiner, Elena Kravtsova, Gennadiy Kravtsov, Ron Lubensky, Morten Nissen, Jennifer Power, Mike Rifino, Keiko Matsuura, Francisco Medina, Anna Stetsenko, Greg Thompson, Chiel van der Veen, Eduardo Vianna, Lynne Wolbert, and Helena Worthen.

Abstract

By examining Amilcar Cabral's theories and praxes, Reiland Rabaka reintroduces and analyzes several of the core characteristics of the Africana critical theory. Ultimately, this book promotes the ways in which classical black radicalism should inform contemporary black radicalism, and contemporary Africana critical theory.

Abstract

What is the relationship between a cinematic grid of color and that most visceral of negative affects, disgust? How might anxiety be a matter of an interrupted horizontal line, or grief a figure of blazing light?Offering a bold corrective to the emphasis on embodiment and experience in recent affect theory, Eugenie Brinkema develops a novel mode of criticism that locates the forms of particular affects within the specific details of cinematic and textual construction. Through close readings of works by Roland Barthes, Hollis Frampton, Sigmund Freud, Peter Greenaway, Michael Haneke, Alfred Hitchcock, Søren Kierkegaard, and David Lynch, Brinkema shows that deep attention to form, structure, and aesthetics enables a fundamental rethinking of the study of sensation. In the process, she delves into concepts as diverse as putrescence in French gastronomy, the role of the tear in philosophies of emotion, Nietzschean joy as a wild aesthetic of repetition, and the psychoanalytic theory of embarrassment. Above all, this provocative work is a call to harness the vitality of the affective turn for a renewed exploration of the possibilities of cinematic form.

Abstract

Das Werk von Pierre Bourdieu zählt ebenso wie das der Frankfurter Schule zu den wichtigsten gesellschaftskritischen Ansätzen. Die gegenseitige Rezeption allerdings ist von Missverständnissen und Abgrenzungskämpfen durchzogen. Die Beiträge in diesem Band versuchen dem zu begegnen, indem sie beide Positionen stärker miteinander vermitteln, als dies bisher geschehen ist. Daraus ergeben sich zugleich neue Perspektiven für eine kritische Gesellschaftstheorie der Gegenwart. Zentrale gemeinsame Bezugspunkte sind die Subjekt- bzw. Habitustheorie, die Analyse von Macht- und Herrschaftsstrukturen sowie die jeweilige Stellung zu politischem Eingreifhandeln und sozialen Bewegungen. »In summa stellt dieser kritische Band das Werk von Pierre Bourdieu in Gegenüberstellung zur Frankfurter Schule umfassend dar und bietet damit einen spannenden Vergleich dieser beiden Denksysteme.« Helmut Reinalter, Zeitschrift für Internationale Freimaurerforschung, 37 (2017) »Eine durchwegs komplexe, fundierte und anregende Sammlung von Analysen zu den beiden großen Theoriesträngen der rezenten kritischen Soziologie in Deutschland und Frankreich.« Ingolf Erler, Schulheft 156 (2014) Besprochen in: Portal für Politikwissenschaft, 31.07.2014, Hendrik Claas Meyer Rundbrief Begegnungszentrum für aktive Gewaltlosigkeit, 38/3 (2014) Information Philosophie, 3 (2014)

Abstract

Using the historical-materialist method to unravel the promise and limits of critical practice since the Revolutionary Age, John E. O’Brien investigates the problems and prospects of cultural criticism for the 21st century through absorbing studies of the contested perspectives of Voltaire, Friedrich Schiller, Jean Baudrillard, Michel Foucault, Terry Eagleton and Hayden White. In spite of recurrent crises due to a flawed Western political-economy, why is there so much critical intellectual activity with so little effect? Framing his study with the early work by Max Horkheimer, Luc Boltanski and Teresa Ebert, O’Brien's investigation of resistance in America and Europe challenges the bourgeois philosophy of history, pointing to the urgency of critique as mode of analysis and intervention.

Abstract

This book is a critical analysis of a selection of Adorno’s work framed by four essential concerns: 1) Adorno’s method of analysis; 2) the absence of a theory of social change; 3) the relationship of his approach to the dialectics of Hegel and Marx, particularly, to others in and around the Frankfurt School (Benjamin, Kracauer, Marcuse), and in contrast to scholars such as Lukács and Bloch; and 4) Adorno’s use of his approach with respect to jazz, popular music, radio and pro-fascist propaganda of the 1930's and 40's as an instrument to disparage the working class. The argument is not an affirmation of Adorno’s work, but argues against the significance of aspects of his theoretical perspective.
