Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En esta era postcovid-19, con sus profundas y duraderas consecuencias sobre la salud y la economía de sociedades de todo el planeta, la crisis de la democracia liberal, tal y como la conocíamos, cobra una renovada y urgente relevancia. En este libro claro, conciso y exhaustivamente documentado, Manuel Castells aborda la crisis de legitimidad que atraviesan los sistemas políticos en todo el mundo y explica por qué se está produciendo este cambio político global. Examina los últimos acontecimientos en Europa y Estados Unidos, prestando especial atención al fin del bipartidismo y la crisis del Estado en España, y muestra cómo esta crisis de la democracia liberal es consecuencia de varios procesos que han desembocado en una desigualdad creciente y en la desconfianza hacia las instituciones y prácticas de gobernanza. Esta tercera edición de Ruptura continúa el hilo temporal de los principales temas tratados e incluye un nuevo epílogo que da cuenta de los últimos acontecimientos. https://castellsruptura.alianzaeditorial.es

Book excerpt: The majority of citizens in the world today do not trust their political representatives, the mainstream political parties, the established political institutions or their governments. This widespread crisis of legitimacy underlies a series of dramatic changes that have taken place in recent times in the global political landscape, such as the unexpected election of Donald Trump, Brexit, the demise of traditional political parties and the election of a political outsider in France, the transformation of the political system in Spain (including the secessionist movement in Catalonia), the rise of the extreme right in Europe and the nationalist challenges that threaten the European Union. In this short but wide-ranging book Manuel Castells analyses each of these processes and examines some of the potential causes of people’s disaffection towards the institutions of liberal democracy, including the effects of globalization, the impact of media politics and the internet, the increasing corruption of politicians, the insulation of a professional political class from civil society and the critique of the existing order by new social movements. He also examines the impact of global terrorism and war on the xenophobia and racism that are fuelling the surge of extremism among a growing proportion of the population. The fact that many of these trends are present in very different contexts suggests that we are witnessing a deep-seated crisis of the model of democracy that has been the cornerstone of stability and civility in the last half century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La democracia liberal tiene a su disposición una bella historia, que se repite a si misma en todas las lenguas: una historia de libertad y de progreso, de horizontes infinitos de retos a superar y de individuos, grupos y sociedades enteras aspirando a un mundo mejor. Esta retórica común del ‘futuro radiante’ casa mal con el aquí y el ahora desde el que se escribe, el de una comunidad política desordenada, con divisiones ideológicas y partidistas que no parecen sino intensificarse y con un estado de ruido y confusión—la famosa ‘crispación’—que amenaza con romperse en mil pedazos. ¿Por qué esta especie de desorden bipolar entre la autocomplacencia y la exasperación en un mundo al que definimos como demócrata y liberal? En este ensayo, incisivo y provocador, Víctor Pérez-Díaz explora este malestar generalizado de las democracias liberales y alerta sobre la necesidad de respondernos a la pregunta de si, en la actual coyuntura histórica de desorden, estas sociedades tienen la capacidad o el poder suficiente para hacer frente a sus problemas representativos y existenciales.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uma análise contundente dos tempos sombrios que vivemos, por um dos mais respeitados pensadores da atualidade. "Sopram ventos malignos no planeta azul", sentencia o sociólogo Manuel Castells, enquanto o mundo é assolado por um turbilhão de múltiplas crises. A crise econômica que se prolonga em precariedade de trabalho e desigualdade social; o terrorismo fanático que impossibilita a convivência e alimenta o medo; a permanente ameaça de guerras atrozes como forma de lidar com conflitos; as inúmeras violações aos direitos humanos e à vida. Existe, porém, uma crise ainda mais profunda: a ruptura da relação entre governantes e governados, refletida no sentimento geral de que as instituições políticas "não nos representam". Para o autor, trata-se do gradual colapso da democracia liberal. Nesse livro claro, instigante e bem-documentado, Castells analisa as causas e consequências desse rompimento, à luz dos mais recentes acontecimentos políticos mundiais: a vitória de Trump nos Estados Unidos; o resultado do Brexit no Reino Unido; a desconfiguração partidária na França na votação que elegeu Macron presidente; e a ideia de "democracia real" (em oposição à moribunda democracia liberal), nascida dos movimentos originários das redes sociais na Espanha, que levou ao fim do tradicional bipartidarismo no país. Mas aonde nos levará essa ruptura? Qual a nova ordem que substituirá a que morre? Se o futuro é incerto, Castells nos faz refletir e enxergar com clareza o panorama atual, em uma publicação crucial para o momento que vivemos.

Rather than defending liberalism or abandoning it, how can a socially just and ecological alternative be built? Peadar Kirby investigates the causes of our current multifaceted global crisis by drawing on the work of Karl Polanyi. This book explores Polanyi's theory that social disruptions result from the attempt to run society according to the rules of the market. Drawing on these ideas, it outlines pathways towards an alternative future that overcome weaknesses in Marxism. Linking the ecological, political and socio-economic crises, Kirby identifies that an alternative socio-ecological model is emerging, consistent with the insights of Polanyi. Karl Polanyi and the Contemporary Political Crisis is an urgent intervention into key debates on the future of politics, on the low-carbon transition, on automation and on the emerging world order.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of incisive investigations into the ways that 21st-century British theatre works with - and through - crisis. It pays particular attention to the way in which writers and practitioners consider the ethical and social challenges of crisis. Anchored in an interdisciplinary approach that draws from sociology, cultural theory, feminism, performance and philosophy, the book brings multi-faceted ideas into dialogue with the diverse aesthetics, practices and themes of a range of theatrical work produced in Britain since 2005. Topics discussed include: Ageing Austerity Gender Migrancy Multiculturalism Aesthetics Companies discussed include: Theatre Uncut Lost Dog Camden People's People Lung Brighton People's Theatre Phosphoros Theatre Playwrights discussed include: Jez Butterworth Caryl Churchill Tim Crouch Vivienne Franzmann James Graham debbie tucker green Ella Hickson Charlene James Lucy Kirkwood Simon Longman Cordelia Lynn Simon Stephens Jack Thorne Chris Thorpe Gloria Williams Building on recent publications in the area and engaging in dialogue with them, Crisis, Representation and Resilience considers how crisis is being re-thought and re-orientated through theatrical performance and the ways theatre invites us to respond to the many challenges of the contemporary times.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access volume analyses the development of democracy at different levels of governance (from local to global). The Basque search for an institutional and democratic model that adapts to its social needs and solves its problems offers an interesting perspective for analyzing the way in which democracy is seeking new forms of materialization from the local to the global. The volume is divided into four parts. The chapters in Part I analyze the tensions between the neoliberal vision of democracy and the voices contesting it, with projections at different levels of government. The chapters in Part II focus on the emerging framework and scales of Western democracy. The chapters in Part III present new forms of citizen participation, paying special - though not exclusive - attention to new practical strategies for Basque society. The volume concludes with a block of chapters on the relevance of reviewing the methodological and epistemological frameworks from which knowledge about democracy and mechanisms of citizen participation is generated (Part IV). By delving deeper into the idea and practice of democratic governance, this volume will be of interest to researchers and students from all disciplines of politics, international relations, sociology and law.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Globalization, heralded for decades as a harbinger of prosperity, faces a huge backlash. Derided by right-wing nationalists as a ‘globalist’ plot to undermine traditional communities, and by left-wing critics as the rule of rampaging corporations, it’s become a political punching bag around the world. In this incisive book, leading commentator Colin Crouch defends globalization against its critics to the right and left. He argues that reversing the process would mean a poorer world riven by nationalistic and reactionary antagonisms. However, globalization will only be worth saving if we institute reforms to promote social solidarity and recover pride and confidence for the cities and regions that have lost out. Crouch shows that we can therefore only save globalization from itself if we transcend the nation state and subject global economic flows to democratically responsible transnational governance. Crouch provides a much-needed riposte to the delusions that risk plunging the world back into a zero-sum game of regressive economic nationalism, combining cool-headed analysis with a visionary call for a reformed and genuinely progressive globalization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book’s premise is not only the commonly accepted cultural relativity of economic concepts, but also the observation that the current shift in the meaning of concepts like “market,” “currency,” “exchange,” and “money” suggests that culture is undergoing a change with unpredictable economic and political consequences. The essays in the book raise basic questions concerning exchange – what is exchanged, who exchanges and how, which kind of currency is used, and indeed what is money and how does it convey and retain value over time. These issues are all classical objects of economic theory, but less often have they been approached from a cultural perspective. Works treating economic and monetary issues from a cultural perspective are few and far apart, and this book aims to contribute to such a perspective with a variety of approaches.

This book was released on 2024-02-20 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Open Access book explains the philosophy, design principles, and community organization of Decidim and provides essential insights into how the platform works. Decidim is the world leading digital infrastructure for participatory democracy, built entirely and collaboratively as free software, and used by more than 500 institutions with over three million users worldwide. The platform allows any organization (government, association, university, NGO, neighbourhood, or cooperative) to support multitudinous processes of participatory democracy. In a context dominated by corporate-owned digital platforms, in the era of increasing social structuring via Artificial Intelligence, Decidim stands as a public or community owned platform for collective human intelligence. Yet, the project is much more than its technological features. Decidim is in itself a crossroad of the various dimensions of the networked society, a detailed practical map of its complexities and conflicts. The authors distinguish three general dimensions of the project: (1) the political - shedding light on the democratic model that Decidim promotes and its impact on public policies and organizations, (2) the technopolitical - explaining how this technology is democratically designed and managed to produce and protect certain political effects, and (3) the technical - presenting the conditions of production, operation, and success of the project. This book systematically covers those three levels in an academically sound, technologically consistent, and politically innovative manner. Serving as a useful resource and handbook for the use of Decidim, it will not only appeal to students and scholars interested in participatory and digital democracy but also to professionals, policy-makers, and a wider audience interested in learning more about the Decidim platform. This is an open access book.

This book was released on 2019-06-26 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this publication is to reflect, conceptually and empirically, on border processes in Europe, paying special attention to the most current border-related developments, with a special focus on the processes of de-bordering and re-bordering. As the authors represent different academic centers and specializations, the volume reflects not only diverse perspectives but also has an interdisciplinary character. The book contains eight contributions and is divided into three thematic parts. The first set of chapters analyzes the borders and borderlands of the European Union, especially in the context of the ongoing changes observed in its direct neighborhood. The next group of articles deals with the regional level of border-related processes within the European Union. Finally, the last group of texts investigates border processes at the local level, analyzing border urban structures.
