Book Synopsis Qui mène la danse? by : Frances Stonor Saunders
Download or read book Qui mène la danse? written by Frances Stonor Saunders and published by Editions Denoël. This book was released on 2003 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1947 : l'Europe se relève du cataclysme de la Seconde Guerre mondiale ; la guerre froide peut commencer. Qui mène la danse ? nous fait découvrir un aspect très peu connu de la lutte d'influence qu'ont alors menée avec acharnement les Etats-Unis et l'Union soviétique sur le terrain de la vie culturelle américaine et européenne. Frances Stonor Saunders met au jour le programme secret de propagande mis au point par la CIA, qui fit de la culture une véritable machine de guerre pour combattre le bloc soviétique et ses thuriféraires. De considérables moyens humains et financiers furent employés pour utiliser la littérature, la musique, l'art et la presse comme armes idéologiques privilégiées en faveur des Etats-Unis. Les manipulations furent plus ou moins licites, plus ou moins apparentes de Raymond Aron à Jackson Pollock, en passant par Arthur Koestler, Ignazio Silone et Igor Stravinski, de très nombreuses personnalités du monde littéraire et artistique ont été généreusement rémunérées, utilisées par les services secrets américains, soit directement par des officiers traitants, soit par l'intermédiaire de fondations. Cette vaste enquéte retrace l'histoire de l'élite intellectuelle en Europe et aux Etats-Unis à travers un théâtre d'ombres peuplé de personnages brillants, de fins manipulateurs et d'espions sans vergogne. Ce livre, qui a déjà fait couler beaucoup d'encre en Angleterre, en Espagne et en Allemagne, est un document exceptionnel sur l'histoire de la guerre froide.

Book Synopsis Fascism: Post-war fascisms by : Roger Griffin
Download or read book Fascism: Post-war fascisms written by Roger Griffin and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2004 with total page 538 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nature of 'fascism' has been hotly contested by scholars since the term was first coined by Mussolini in 1919. However, for the first time since Italian fascism appeared there is now a significant degree of consensus amongst scholars about how to approach the generic term, namely as a revolutionary form of ultra-nationalism. Seen from this perspective, all forms of fascism have three common features: anticonservatism, a myth of ethnic or national renewal and a conception of a nation in crisis. This collection includes articles that show this new consensus, which is inevitably contested, as well as making available material which relates to aspects of fascism independently of any sort of consensus and also covering fascism of the inter and post-war periods.This is a comprehensive selection of texts, reflecting both the extreme multi-faceted nature of fascism as a phenomenon and the extraordinary divergence of interpretations of fascism.

Book Synopsis The Colonial Legacy in France by : Nicolas Bancel
Download or read book The Colonial Legacy in France written by Nicolas Bancel and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2017-05-01 with total page 501 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Debates about the legacy of colonialism in France are not new, but they have taken on new urgency in the wake of recent terrorist attacks. Responding to acts of religious and racial violence in 2005, 2010, and 2015 and beyond, the essays in this volume pit French ideals against government-sponsored revisionist decrees that have exacerbated tensions, complicated the process of establishing and recording national memory, and triggered divisive debates on what it means to identify as French. As they document the checkered legacy of French colonialism, the contributors raise questions about France and the contemporary role of Islam, the banlieues, immigration, race, history, pedagogy, and the future of the Republic. This innovative volume reconsiders the cultural, economic, political, and social realities facing global French citizens today and includes contributions by Achille Mbembe, Benjamin Stora, Françoise Vergès, Alec Hargreaves, Elsa Dorlin, and Alain Mabanckou, among others.
Book Synopsis NATO and Eastern Europe After 2000 by : Laure Paquette
Download or read book NATO and Eastern Europe After 2000 written by Laure Paquette and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2001 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATO is acutely aware of its increased status as a force for stability in a drastically altered Atlantic community. The number of its initiatives is on the increase just as a new political, economic and military Europe emerges. The Cold War's end has wrought as many changes as there are continuities in the security environment. Eastern and Central European states, especially NATO and PfP members, enjoy an increasing importance to NATO, both as trading partners and as new participants in the civil society. While the literature on relations between NATO and the East Europeans is rather limited, the study of the overall posture of those states in the international system is almost non-existent, so that the consequences of their posture for NATO's renewed concept are unknown. The study of these countries' security posture and strategic interactions with Central European states in general promotes the renewed role of NATO. This book shows that each of the long-term relations with Poland, the Czech Republic, Romania and Bulgaria is subordinated to the goal of entering the European Union, and that their different values will makes relations difficult. This will test NATO's new strategic concept to the limit. It also shows the importance of strategic thinking.
Book Synopsis Strategy and Ethnic Conflict by : Laure Paquette
Download or read book Strategy and Ethnic Conflict written by Laure Paquette and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2002-02-28 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ethnic conflict now presents the thorniest problems for military and civilian strategists of all stripes. This book presents a new general theory of strategy, encompassing studies of the relationship between values, interest, and strategy as these relate to ethnic conflicts. It focuses on the relationship between values and strategy, building a theory on the hypothesis that national values influence national strategy. Paquette's research reveals that national values influence national strategy through three mechanisms: cognition, appreciation, and evaluation. Each mechanism, and indeed the whole value-focused approach to strategic thinking, is described using a network of interrelated statements. Paquette develops a methodology specific to the issues of international security and ethnic considerations. She tests this theory extensively for internal consistency before applying it to a single historical case: French decision-making on national strategy between 1955 and 1970; however, because of its generality, this same theory could easily be applied to other cases. As with any theory, it is possible to vary successively or simultaneously assumptions or conditions and to derive new predictions. This process of deriving variations has the potential to help in the training of strategists, both military and civilian.

Book Synopsis The A to Z of French Cinema by : Dayna Oscherwitz
Download or read book The A to Z of French Cinema written by Dayna Oscherwitz and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2009-09-02 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It can be argued that cinema was created in France by Louis Lumi_re in 1895 with the invention of the cinZmatographe, the first true motion-picture camera and projector. While there were other cameras and devices invented earlier that were capable of projecting intermittent motion of images, the cinZmatographe was the first device capable of recording and externally projecting images in such a way as to convey motion. Early films such as Lumi_re's La Sortie de l'usine, a minute-long film of workers leaving the Lumi_re factory, captured the imagination of the nation and quickly inspired the likes of Georges MZli_s, Alice Guy, and Charles PathZ. Through the years, French cinema has been responsible for producing some of the world's best directors_Jean Renoir, Jean-Luc Godard, Fran_ois Truffaut, and Louis Malle_and actors_Charles Boyer, Catherine Deneuve, GZrard Depardieu, and Audrey Tautou. The A to Z of French Cinema covers the history of French film from the silent era to the present in a concise and up to date volume detailing the development of French cinema and major theoretical and cultural issues related to it. This is done through a chronology, an introduction, photographs, a bibliography, and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on many of the major actors, directors, films, movements, producers, and studios associated with French cinema. Going beyond mere biographical information, entries also discuss the impact and significance of each individual, film, movement, or studio included. This detailed, scholarly analysis of the development of film in France is useful to both the novice and the expert alike.
Book Synopsis Cultural Policy, Work and Identity by : Jonathan Paquette
Download or read book Cultural Policy, Work and Identity written by Jonathan Paquette and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-13 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How have cultural policies created new occupations and shaped professions? This book explores an often unacknowledged dimension of cultural policy analysis: the professional identity of cultural agents. It analyses the relationship between cultural policy, identity and professionalism and draws from a variety of cultural policies around the world to provide insights on the identity construction processes that are at play in cultural institutions. This book reappraises the important question of professional identities in cultural policy studies, museum studies and heritage studies. The authors address the relationship between cultural policy, work and identity by focusing on three levels of analysis. The first considers the state, the creativity of the power relationship established in cultural policies and the power which structures the symbolic order of cultural work. The second presents community in the cultural policy process, society and collective action, whether it is through the creation of institutions for arts and heritage profession or through resistance to state cultural policies. The third examines the experience of cultural policy by the professional. It illustrates how cultural policy is both a set of contingencies that shape possibilities for professionals, as much as it is a basis for identification and identity construction. The eleven authors in this unique book draw on their experience as artists and researchers from a range of countries, including France, Canada, United Kingdom, United States, and Sweden.

Book Synopsis Cultures nationales et identité communautaire by : Marloes Beers
Download or read book Cultures nationales et identité communautaire written by Marloes Beers and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2010 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La question de l'identité européenne a souvent été soulevée par les historiens sous l'angle de la civilisation et de l'héritage historique et culturel commun. Mais l'identité européenne n'a que rarement été abordée à travers une grille de lecture liée à l'émergence d'un espace public européen et d'une expérience de vivre ensemble. Cet ouvrage se propose donc de croiser les compétences multiples de jeunes chercheurs européens, afin d'identifier les vecteurs porteurs d'une identité européenne et de mesurer leur réalité ou leurs insuffisances. Ce faisant, il propose des pistes de développement pour cette identité européenne encore en gestation, afin d'en déterminer les enjeux pour l'Europe. À la fois objectif et handicap dans l'histoire des communautés européennes, la question identitaire semble être un enjeu majeur pour aujourd'hui comme pour demain. The issue of a common European identity has been the subject of academic research from diverse perspectives. This book approaches the theme of European identity through the interpretive lens of both European public space and the experience of living together. Young scholars in the field of European studies identify instruments for the development of a European identity and analyse their characteristics and shortcomings. These proceedings offer a spectrum of perspectives on the development of a European identity.
