Book Synopsis Revolting Indolence by : Marcos Gonsalez
Download or read book Revolting Indolence written by Marcos Gonsalez and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2024-12-03 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How indolent practices in Latinx LGBTQ culture challenge capitalist imperatives to be productive. Revolting Indolence makes a case for laziness as an aesthetic-political strategy for countering the oppressive logics of cisheteronormative racial capitalism. Focusing on ways in which queer and trans Latinx people demonstrate the unwillingness of their participation in “productivist” ethics and allied respectability politics, Marcos Gonsalez argues that slacking off, lounging, daydreaming, and partying are liberatory practices—revolts that in turn are treated as revolting. Gonsalez explores how queer and trans Latinx artists refute discourses in which work is a moral good. In Paris Is Burning, RuPaul's Drag Race, documentary photography of queer and trans Latinx life in Los Angeles, and other sources, Gonsalez identifies two lazy styles: first, flagrant refusals of work that critique capitalist reason; and second, the invention of alternative aesthetic worlds beyond racial capitalism and violence targeting queer and trans people, whose rejection of the cisgender nuclear family paradigm is rightly seen as threatening the stability of a functioning capitalist system. Reclaiming laziness as a resource for radical imagining, Revolting Indolence asks us to do that which we want most and which capitalist exploitation can least tolerate: to slow down.

Book excerpt: "Through the use and study of photography, archives, literature, television, film, and installation art, Marcos Gonsalez makes a case for the role that indolence plays in challenging a neoliberal capitalist economy that is deeply embedded with cis-heteronormative and white supremacist values. By focusing on the ways in which queer/trans Latinx people find ways to demonstrate their lack of willing participation in these systems, he finds that dozing, slacking, daydreaming, partying, and lounging revolt against these systems and in turn are treated as being "revolting." Everything from the trans ur-text that is Paris is Burning, and the subsequent controversies, conversations, and evaluations of it in the decades since its debut, to RuPaul's Drag Race, to documentary photography of queer and trans life in Chicanx Los Angeles to writings and remembrances of the Pulse nightclub shootings, visuality, memory, racial and sexual identity merge together to shape alternative paths of resistance and ways of living within this culture and its economy"--
Book Synopsis Great Nations at Peril by : Jürgen Backhaus
Download or read book Great Nations at Peril written by Jürgen Backhaus and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-11-27 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was prompted by the current, lingering financial crisis, which has its basis in the disorderly financial practices of the United States. These practices have resulted in an accumulated debt which now requires the United States to run financial policies at artificially low interest rates. In principle, these low interest rates should flood the markets with ready money. Since the spread for banks is very thin, however, and they must carefully discriminate between available risks and finance only those propositions with no risk, credit is not abundantly available. With staggering foreign debt and a myriad of other perils looming, this great nation is at peril for sure. In the tradition of the Heilbronn Symposium, the authors look at historical cases as a means of understanding the current situation and informing possible solutions to a problem that continues to affect the global economy. The volume analyzes cases such as Prussia, Greece, Italy, Estonia, and the European Union. This book will be of interest to scholars and students of economic history as well as policy makers who may benefit from an historical understanding of the economic challenges their countries currently face.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writer in Exile/Writer in Revolt: Critical Perspectives on Carlos Bulosan gathers pioneering essays by major scholars in Filipino American Studies, American Studies, and Philippine Studies as well as historic documents on Carlos Bulosan’s work and life for the first time. This anthology—which includes rare, out-of-print documents—provides students, instructors, and scholars an opportunity to trace the development of a body of knowledge called Bulosan criticism within the United States and the Philippines. Divided into four major sections that explore Bulosan’s prolific literary output (novels, poems, short stories, essays, letters, and editorial work), the anthology opens with an introduction to the early stages of Bulosan criticism (1950s-1970s) and ends with recent work by senior scholars in Asian American Studies that suggests new directions for engaging multiple dimensions of Bulosan’s twin commitment to art and social change.

Book Synopsis The Jacobite Rebellion by : Gregory Fremont-Barnes
Download or read book The Jacobite Rebellion written by Gregory Fremont-Barnes and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-09-15 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fully illustrated with colour maps and images, this is an accessible introduction to one of history's most heavily romanticized and mythologized campaigns. Dr Gregory Fremont-Barnes presents a detailed overview of the Forty-five Rebellion, dispelling the myths that have grown up around battles like Culloden and the figures of the Highlanders. Led by the charismatic Bonnie Prince Charlie and fought in the main by clansmen loyal to the Stuarts, the revolt initially saw government forces outmanoeuvred and outfought before the Prince's march on London halted at Derby. But the following spring, pursued back into the Highlands by the Duke of Cumberland, the Prince's army made its doomed last stand on the moor of Culloden. Fremont-Barnes examines this key turning point in British history, analysing the dynastic struggle of two royal houses, the Rebellion's manoeuvres and battles and the tragic aftermath for the Highlands. Updated and revised for the new edition, with full-colour maps and 30 new images, this is an accessible introduction to the famous campaign which saw the Stuart dynasty's final attempt to regain the British throne, and the end of the Highland clans' way of life.
