The essays in this book, many of which are either out-of-print ordiffi...

The Happiness Industry

William Davies

The Happiness Industry

Why are we so interested in measuring happiness? What was a Buddhist monk doing at the 2014 World Economic Forum in Davos lecturing the world’s leaders on mindfulness? Why do many successful corporations have a ‘chief happiness officer’? What can the chemical composition of your brain tell a potential employer about you? In the past decade, governments and corporations have become increasingly interested in measuring the way people feel: ‘the Happiness index’, ‘Gross National Happiness’,...

Journal of Soviet and Post-Soviet Politics and Society

This special issue deals with the phenomenon of violence in the post-Soviet space. The central preoccupation is to examine both political and legal discourses and practices of internal and external violence, broadly conceived, in this space. Simultaneously the special issue aspires to situate these discourses and practices in the broader literature on political violence and ethnic and separatist conflict, and to examine these from political, legal, and security studies perspectives.

Vaikus müraajastul. Rõõm end maailmast välja lülitada

>Mis on vaikus? Kust seda leida? Miks on see just nüüd olulisem kui kunagi varem? Erling Kagge pakub oma rahvusvaheliseks menukiks saanud raamatus „Vaikus müraajastul. Rõõm end maailmast välja lülitada” 33 vastusevarianti kolmele olulisele küsimusele. „Kui ma ei saa maailmast minema kõndida, eemale ronida või kaugele purjetada, olen õppinud end sellele sulgema.

Виржини Депант

Кинг-Конг-Теория

В этой книге откровенных, яростных и смешных эссе Виржини Депант – по собственным словам, «больше Кинг-Конг, чем Кейт Мосс», – осмысляет жизнь современных женщин, критикует буржуазную мораль в отношении секса и раздает пощечины французскому обществу одну за другой. Используя собственный опыт пережитого насилия и проституции как отправную точку для анализа, она становится голосом тех, кто не может и не хочет подчиняться правилам.

Demokrati

Svend-Erik Skaaning

Demokrati

Vi elsker demokrati, men ingen af os kan rigtig sAette ord pa kAerligheden. Det er nok derfor, diktatorer kan udrabe sig selv som sande demokrater. Og derfor deres undersatter bilder sig ind, at det er svaret pa deres bonner. Men et folkestyre forer ikke altid til fornuftige beslutninger; det er bade omstridt og uretfAerdigt og loser ikke verdens problemer pa magisk vis – undtagen det med tyranni. Heldigvis er Svend-Erik Skaaning, demokratiforsker ved Aarhus Universitet, ikke bange for at hAeve...

Neoconservative Politics and the Supreme Court

In this concise, timely book, constitutional law expert Stephen M. Feldman draws on neoconservative writings to explore the rise of the neocons and their influence on the Supreme Court. Neocons burst onto the political scene in the early 1980s via their assault on pluralist democracy’s ethical relativism, where no pre-existing or higher principles limit the agendas of interest groups. Instead, they advocated for a resurrection of republican democracy, which declares that virtuous...

False Choices

Liza Featherstone

False Choices

Hillary Rodham Clinton is one of the most powerful women in world politics, and the irrational right-wing hatred of Clinton has fed her progressive appeal, helping turn her into a feminist icon. To get a woman in the White House, it’s thought, would be an achievement for all women everywhere, a kind of trickle-down feminism. In the run-up to the 2016 presidential election, the mantle of feminist elect has descended on Hillary Clinton, as a thousand viral memes applaud her, and most mainstream...

Return to Winter

Return to Winter

The United States is a nation in crisis. While Washington’s ability to address our most pressing challenges has been rendered nearly impotent by ongoing partisan warfare, we face an array of foreign-policy crises for which we seem increasingly unprepared. Among these, none is more formidable than the unprecedented partnership developing between Russia and China, suspicious neighbors for centuries and fellow Communist antagonists during the Cold War. The two longtime foes have drawn...
