Abstract

Decolonizing Theory: Thinking across Traditions aims at disentangling theory from its exclusively Western provenance, drawing insights and concepts from other thought traditions, connecting to what it argues is a new global moment in the reconstitution of theory. The key argument, which is the point of departure of the book, is that any serious theorizing in the non-West should be fundamentally suspicious of any theory that only gives you one result-that four-fifths of the world does not and cannot do anything right. Everything in the non-West, from itsmodernity and secularism to its democracy and even capitalism, is always seen to be deficient. In other words, all it tells us is that we do not live up to the standards set by Western modernity. From this point of departure, it seeks to create a conceptual space outside (Western) modernity and capitalism, by insisting on a rethink of non-synchronous synchronicities.The book takes three key themes around which the whole story of modernity can be unraveled, namely the question of the political, capital and historical time, and secularism for a detailed discussion. It does so by bracketing, in a sense, the autobiographical story that Western modernity gives itself. In each case, it tries to show that past forms never simply disappear, without residue, to be fully supplanted by the modern, and merely applying theory produced in one context to another is, therefore, very misleading.

Abstract

Le romancier John Dos Passos et le sociologue Robert Ezra Park comptent parmi les plus importants penseurs américains du XXe siècle. L'essai de Pierre Saint-Arnaud confronte ces deux auteurs dans la double perspective de la sociologie de la connaissance et de l'epistémologie. Il montre que leurs écrits ont été produits à partir d'une commune fascination pour l'écologie urbaine, et que Manhattan Transfer et USA., les deux plus célèbres fictions de Dos Passos, s'apparentent à une construction sociologique par leur ancrage profond dans la réalité urbaine américaine de la première moitié de ce siècle. Au fil de l'analyse, il ressort que Park et Dos Passos partagent une représentation commune idéalisée de leur société, malgré leurs positions idéologiques diamétralement opposées : le sociologue privilégie le futur, l'écrivain semble subjugué par les valeurs du passé. Enfin, à la lumière d'approches théoriques majeures telles que le néomarxisme, le postmodernisme et la sémiotique sociale, l'auteur examine l'actualité de plusieurs idées émises par Park et Dos Passos.

Abstract

Sixty years ago, Henning Larsen established a practice with a simple foundational ethos: people come first. Although the Danish architect passed away in 2013, his studio continues to be guided by an adaptive approach to Nordic modernism that operates across a broad range of global contexts and communities. This book presents a selection of recent projects, including the Harpa Reykjavik Concert Hall, Siemens Corporate HQ, French International School of Hong Kong, Moesgaard Museum, and more. Essays by Kent Martinussen and Hans Ibelings offer insight into an architecture that is at the forefront of Danish design, always tuned to the needs of our changing world.

Abstract

A partir de deux films, "2 ou 3 choses que je sais d'elle" de Jean-Luc Godard et "Playtime" de Jacques Tati, ce mémoire tente d'expliquer et d'analyser le modernisme des années soixante. Celui-ci apparaît comme un piège dans une société où la consommation des objets l'emporte sur l'importance des relations humaines. La société de consommation entre dans nos moeurs et s'impose comme cadre limitant et structurant dans lequel l'homme moderne se réfléchit.
