Описание: In Power in Modernity, Isaac Ariail Reed proposes a bold new theory of power that describes overlapping networks of delegation and domination. Chains of power and their representation, linking together groups and individuals across time and space, create a vast network of intersecting alliances, subordinations, redistributions, and violent exclusions. Reed traces the common action of "sending someone else to do something for you" as it expands outward into the hierarchies that control territories, persons, artifacts, minds, and money.
He mobilizes this theory to investigate the onset of modernity in the Atlantic world, with a focus on rebellion, revolution, and state formation in colonial North America, the early American Republic, the English Civil War, and French Revolution. Modernity, Reed argues, dismantled the "King's Two Bodies"--the monarch's physical body and his ethereal, sacred second body that encompassed the body politic--as a schema of representation for forging power relations. Reed's account then offers a new understanding of the democratic possibilities and violent exclusions forged in the name of "the people," as revolutionaries sought new ways to secure delegation, build hierarchy, and attack alterity.
Reconsidering the role of myth in modern politics, Reed proposes to see the creative destruction and eternal recurrence of the King's Two Bodies as constitutive of the modern attitude, and thus as a new starting point for critical theory. Modernity poses in a new way an eternal human question: what does it mean to be the author of one's own actions?

Описание: Celebrating the diversity of life on earth: Eye to Eye presents an extraordinary collection of animal images by award-winning photographer and naturalist Frans Lanting. More than 140 images are accompanied by Lanting`s personal observations and stories from a lifetime of working with wild animals.
Manipulation is a type of social influence aimed at changing the actions or attitudes of others using indirect, manipulative, or underhanded tactics.
Some emotional manipulators use more force and are more overt in their tactics...
They will use tactics that will leave you shamed, in fear, or they use guilt trips, and often the victim will be left feeling immobilized and stunned. This is exactly what the manipulator wants them to feel.
Many times, you may not even realize that the other person is using this kind of behaviour because they are incredibly good at deceiving you and keeping the information hidden.
That is why you must pay attention to the subtleties of the mind. Your number one defence against all these manipulation subtypes is knowing what to look for in individuals who use them.
According to science, the human mind is full of memories. But where does this memory come from? I would say experience rather than thoughts. For instance, trauma during childhood may never be forgotten. This trauma can give your thoughts an everlasting impression. Thoughts are the fundamentals of human nature. You are what you think. Perception makes an enormous difference. Here is the good news: you can take control over your thinking via the amazing and methodical philosophy of stoicism.
Stoicism embraces acceptance, and whether the outcome of any situation is good or bad it keeps you calm. It teaches you to accept reality.
Reading this book, you will learn:
- Emotional manipulation & in relationship
- Mind control practices
- Mental manipulation techniques
- Mental manipulation techniques used by the mass media how to recognize and protect them
- Manipulation tips and tricks
- Stoic philosophy
- Stoic psychological techniques
- The foundational doctrines of stoicism

Название: Humour in Political Activism ISBN: 1137573457 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781137573452 Издательство: Springer Рейтинг: Цена: 83850.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: This book analyses how humour in political activism contributes to facilitating outreach, mobilisation and the sustaining of cultures of resistance. Drawing on examples of attention-grabbing stunts from around the world, Humour in Political Activism demonstrates how they succeed in turning relations of power upside down. The ambiguity and unpredictability of humour, S?rensen argues, makes it difficult to respond to this form of political activism when it is performed in public. Humorous political stunts can therefore challenge state power, help influence changes in law and make significant contributions to the conversations about how societies should be organised. The book also investigates the potential risks and limitations of using humour in nonviolent action and what makes humour unique compared with other forms of non-humorous political activism.

Описание: In this pathbreaking collections of essays, Canada-based Chinese scholar Simin Li explores the latest insights into information, knowledge, political communication, and identity in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and their neighbors, friends, and adversaries. Discourses of Asian Societies follows the social dynamics of these East Asian nations and reflects their recent political discourses and civil practices, grouped into four themes: memory and diaspora, civil practice and discourse in China, political discourses in Hong Kong, and youth identity and nationalism in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
The theme of memory and diaspora uses interpretive narratives to present, in one study, the motivations of five Chinese immigrants to leave their homeland. Data was collected from Zhihu, the Chinese version of the popular internet site Quora, as used in Singapore, Canada, Brazil, Finland, and Australia. The second study explores how international students enrolled in Taiwan’s universities relieved homesickness by searching for information online.
The book’s appreciation of civil practice and discourse emerges from a study of how a Chinese rural library developed under the leadership of a non-government organization and an analysis of the relations between a think tank’s research and social agenda, as presented in its publications and related news reports.
The third theme’s focus on Hong Kong uses Facebook to observe an opinion leader’s routine communication and dissemination of political issues. A supplementary study assesses opinion leaders’ online behavior during legislative council elections.
Finally, the book offers an understanding of modern youth through a comparative study of expression and performance in Taiwan and Hong Kong, via social media and a more traditional comparative analysis of the similarities and differences of national groups of young people via big data.

Caring in Times of Precarity draws together two key cultural observations: the increase in those living a single life, and the growing attraction of creative careers. Straddling this historical juncture, the book focuses on one particular group of ‘precariat’: single women in Shanghai in various forms of creative (self-)employment. While negotiating their share of the uncanny creative work ethos, these women also find themselves interpellated as shengn? (‘left-over women’) in a society configured by a mix of Confucian values, heterosexual ideals, and global images of womanhood. Following these women’s professional, social and intimate lives, the book refuses to see their singlehood and creative labour as problematic, and them as victims. It departs from dominant thinking on precarity, which foregrounds and critiques the contemporary need to be flexible, mobile, and spontaneous to the extent of (self-)exploitation, accepting insecurity. The book seeks to understand– empirically and specifically–women’s everyday struggles and pleasures. It highlights the up-close, everyday embodied, affective, and subjective experience in a particular Chinese city, with broader, global resonances well beyond China. Exploring the limits of the politics of precarity, the book proposes an ethics of care.
