Redacted: The Archives of Censorship in Transwar Japanvolume 11
ISBN: 9780520273344 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 376 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. At the height of state censorship in Japan, more indexes of banned books circulated, more essays on censorship were published, more works of illicit erotic and proletarian fiction were produced, and more passages were Xed out than at any other moment before or since. As censors construct and maintain their own archives, their acts of suppression yield another archive, filled with documents on, against, and in favor of censorship. The extant archive of the Japanese imperial censor (1923-1945) and the archive of the Occupation censor (1945-1952) stand as tangible reminders of this contradictory...

Nation and Aesthetics: On Kant and Freud
ISBN: 9780190622978 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Nation and Aesthetics is a unique attempt to examine the ambiguous nature of nationalism and nation by examining them through aesthetics. In this translation by Jonathan E. Abel, Darwin H. Tsen, and Hiroki Yoshikuni, Karatani grasps the modern social formation as a nexus of three different "modes of exchange," namely capital-nation-state. Nation here plays the role of complementing capitalism and the state. Benedict Anderson defined nation as an "imagined community." Through rethinking Kant, Karatani suggests that "imagination" here is not a mere fancy, but very real, in the sense...

ISBN: 9781920596118 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych.

The book draws attention to what they bring to their adopted country through research into previously unexamined areas of migrant entrepreneurship. Ranging from studies of how migrants have created agglomeration economies in Jeppe and Ivory Park in Johannesburg, to guanxi networks of Chinese entrepreneurs, to competition and...
