Bad Marxism : Capitalism and Cultural Studies

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionBad Marxism is a critical political analysis of Cultural Studies. It assesses the radical credentials of a discipline that commonly claims to be radical, but is often disengaged from political movements and political struggles as they areactually found in the world today. In particular, Hutnyk looks at how Cultural Studies has used and abused Marxism - that while cultural theorists engage with Marx, their interpretations of Marx ensure that much of his radical political potential is lost. The book focuses on a number of key theorists who are all in some way influenced by, or comment, on Marx: Jacques Derrida, James Clifford, Georges Bataille, and Michael Hardt and Toni Negri in Empire. Coming from diverse intellectual and disciplinary positions (from anthropology to very rarefied philosophy), these theorists have from different directions been highly influential on contemporary cultural studies. Hutnyk attempts to be attentive to the diversity of their… [detailed...]

Bad Money: Reckless Finance, Failed Politics, and the Global Crisis of American Capitalism

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The bestselling author reveals how the U.S. financial sector has hijacked our economy and put America?s global future at risk In American Theocracy, Kevin Phillips warned us of the perilous interaction of debt, financial recklessness, and the increasing cost of scarce oil. The current housing and mortgage debacle is proof once more of Phillips?s prescience, and only the first harbinger of a national crisis. In Bad Money, Phillips describes the consequences of our misguided economic policies, our mounting debt, our collapsing housing market, our threatened oil, and the end of American domination of world markets. America?s current challenges (and failures) run striking parallels to the decline of previous leading world economic powers?especially the Dutch and British. Global overreach, worn-out politics, excessive debt, and exhausted energy regimes are all chilling signals that the United States is crumbling as the world superpower. ?Bad money? refers to a new phenomenon in wayward… [detailed...]

Bad Music: The Music We Love to Hate

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionWhy are some popular musical forms and performers universally reviled by critics and ignored by scholars-despite enjoying large-scale popularity? How has the notion of what makes `good` or `bad` music changed over the years-and what doesthis tell us about the writers who have assigned these tags to different musical genres? Many composers that are today part of the classical `canon` were greeted initially by bad reviews. Similarly, jazz, country, and pop musics were all once rejected as `bad` by the academy that now has courses on these and many other types of music. This book addresses why this is so through a series of essays on different musical forms and performers. It looks at alternate ways of judging musical performance beyond the critical/academic nexus, and suggests new paths to follow in understanding what makes some music `popular` even if it is judged to be `bad.` For anyone who has ever secretly enjoyed ABBA, Kenny G, or disco, Bad Music will be a… [detailed...]

Bad News of the Heart (Canadian Literature Series)

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionIn BAD NEWS OF THE HEART, a seeing-eye dog leads a blind man into a frozen river, a southern Baptist loses his memory and finds true love in Bel Air, an obese dot.com executive has `anorgasmic` latex sex with her CEO, and a homeless man in New York creates an intellectual universe based on Stick ?em notes stuck to the inside of his cardboard box shelter. Douglas Glover?s stories are wildly inventive, deadpan comedies of our universal human catastrophe. They are sly, demanding and wise?stories about language, desire and love (in a very dark place). The humor veers from the wry and sardonic to salacious, mordant and playful. And always there are moments of such stark emotional intimacy that the reader slides, almost without noticing, from laughter to lament. [detailed...]

Bad Twin

2006 y.
Publisher: Hyperion
Description: Sometimes evil has a familiar face . . . Paul Artisan, P.I. is a new version of an old breed -- a righter of wrongs, someone driven to get to the bottom of things. Too bad his usual cases are of the boring malpractice and fraud variety. Until now. His new gig turns on the disappearance of one of a pair of twins, adult scions of a rich but tragedy-prone family. The missing twin -- a charismatic poster-boy for irresponsibility -- has spent his life daring people to hate him, punishing himself endlessly for his screw-ups and misdeeds. The other twin -- Artisan`s client -- is dutiful and resentful in equal measure, bewildered that his `other half` could have turned out so badly, and wracked by guilt at his inability to reform him. He has a more practical reason, as well, for wanting his brother found: their crazy father, in failing health and with guilty secrets of his own, will not divide the family fortune until both siblings are accounted for. But it isn`t just a fortune that`s… [detailed...]

Badly Drawn Dog

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book Description Is Badly Drawn Dog really as funny-looking as the pooch pictured in this amusing book for younger boys and girls? One thing?s for sure: Badly Drawn Dog is tired of being badly drawn. He?s scribbly and scrawly and sketchy around the eyes. His wish is to become a nicely drawn dog. With that notion in mind, he visits a new artist and asks to be drawn differently. Soon Badly Drawn Dog looks like something out of an abstract cubist painting. He runs out to play, but his drastic change in appearance soon gives him problems. Back he goes to the artist for another style change, but still he isn?t satisfied. Maybe a change in his appearance isn?t the answer to his dreams, after all. Maybe he should go back to the artist who drew him badly in the first place. Humorous color illustrations on every page.

Description: Book Description`By carefully identifying a `mid-spectrum` population and then showing clearly how numerous and important they were in the Roman world, Haley makes an extremely sound, well argued, and well documented case for revising our basic concept of the organization of the free Roman social world. . . . His scholarship is absolutely first rate.` --Robert C. Knapp, Professor of Classics, University of California, Berkeley Baetica, the present-day region of Andalusia in southern Spain, was the wealthiest province of the Roman Empire. Its society was dynamic and marked by upward social and economic mobility, as the imperial peace allowed the emergence of a substantial middle social and economic stratum. Indeed, so mutually beneficial was the imposition of Roman rule on the local population of Baetica that it demands a new understanding of the relationship between Imperial Rome and its provinces. Baetica Felix builds a new model of Roman-provincial relations through a… [detailed...]
