Ideology: A Multidisciplinary Approach

1998 y.
Publisher: Sage Publications
Description: The history of ideology and its definition continues to occupy scholars across a range of disciplines. Contrary to the vast volume of earlier work on ideology however, this books provides a challenging new theory of ideology, one that is capable of explaining not only the internal structures of ideologies, but also how ideologies function in society. In formulating theory that is capable of providing the first insights into the internal structures of ideologies while simultaneously explaining how discourse structures may be used in the production and reproduction of ideologies, van Dijk offers a highly important theoretical bridge between the micro and macro structures of society. This book will be essential for all students of discourse studies, communication, social psychology, sociology, and political science. [detailed...]

Leora Batnitzky
Idolatry and Representation: The Philosophy of Franz Rosenzweig Reconsidered

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Although Franz Rosenzweig is arguably the most important Jewish philosopher of the twentieth century, his thought remains little understood. Here, Leora Batnitzky argues that Rosenzweig`s redirection of German-Jewish ethical monotheism anticipates and challenges contemporary trends in religious studies, ethics, philosophy, anthropology, theology, and biblical studies.This text, which captures the hermeneutical movement of Rosenzweig`s corpus, is the first to consider the full import of the cultural criticism articulated in his writings on the modern meanings of art, language, ethics, and national identity. In the process, the book solves significant conundrums about Rosenzweig`s relation to German idealism, to other major Jewish thinkers, to Jewish political life, and to Christianity, and brings Rosenzweig into conversation with key contemporary thinkers.Drawing on Rosenzweig`s view that Judaism`s ban on idolatry is the crucial intellectual and spiritual resource available to respond… [detailed...]

Idols of the Market: Modern Iconoclasm and the Fundamentalist Spectacle

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In this book-length essay, art critic and historian Sven Lutticken takes philosopher Theodor Adorno`s critique of popular arts and culture a step further. Adorno criticized the manipulation of taste in official cultures and the pretense of individualism, Lutticken looks at the tension between fundamentalism and individualism in the context of the current religious-political image wars. This book examines both the afterlife of religious elements in modern culture and possible responses to the current religious re-appropriation of Adorno`s critique of modern capitalist culture by both Christian fundamentalists and radical Islamists. Lutticken contributes regularly to Artforum, New Left Review, Afterimage, and Texte zur Kunst, among other publications. [detailed...]

Idyll Banter : Weekly Excursions to a Very Small Town

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionIn March 1986, while living in Brooklyn, Chris Bohjalian and his wife were cab-napped on a Saturday night and taken on a forty-five-minute joy ride in which the driver ignored all traffic lights and stop signs. Around midnight he deposited the young couple on a near-deserted street, where police officers were about to storm a crack house. Bohjalian and his wife were told to hit the ground for their own protection. While lying on the pavement, Bohjalian`s wife suggested that perhaps it was time to move to New England. Months later they traded in their co-op in Brooklyn for a century-old Victorian house in Lincoln, Vermont (population 975), and Bohjalian began chronicling life in that town in a wide variety of magazine essays and inhis newspaper column, `Idyll Banter.` These pieces, written weekly for twelve years and collected here for the first time, serve as a diary of both this writer`s life and how America has been transformed in the last decade.

Mark Sinker
If (Bfi Film Classics)

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionLindsay Anderson`s film if…. (1968), starring Malcolm McDowell as a schoolboy who leads a guerilla insurgence, imagines how repression, conformity, and fusty ritual at an English public school could lead to anarchy and bloody revolt. Its title is a sardonic nod to Rudyard Kipling`s most famous poem, and its story a radical updating of Kipling`s 1899 story `Stalky and Co.,` in which prankish rebels are groomed to police the empire. Released at a time of unprecedented student uprisings inEurope and America, if…. provided a peculiarly English perspective on the battle between generations-the perennial war of the romantically passionate against the corrupt, the ugly, the old, and the foolish. Though its emotional surface is authentically anti-authoritarian, its intellectual substance, as Mark Sinker argues, is rooted in a deep familiarity with the symbols of English ruling-class values. No longer a vehicle for shock or dissent, if…. is today enjoyed comfortably,… [detailed...]

If Americans Really Understood the Income Tax: Uncovering Our Most Expensive Ignorance

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionOne hundred eighty million Americans file income tax returns, almost as many complain about the system, yet few understand the underlying social and economic outcomes. This book carves open the belly of the income tax for Americans who never have had the opportunity to learn about it, and empowers Americans to make informed judgments about what income tax laws would be best. John Fox explains how the laws represent the most comprehensive expression of official government values. Fox also elucidates how special relief provisions far exceed in sheer dollars and importance programs funded directly through the federal budget, and why these special provisions typically fail to advance tax justice or economic growth. Fox presents a compelling argument that our nation`s interests would be best served by overhauling the system through reforms that eliminate all but the most essential special relief provisions, while reducing tax rates across the board. Such reforms, he argues,… [detailed...]
