Cinema of Choice: Optional Thinking and Narrative Movies
ISBN: 9780857455918 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 198 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Standard Hollywood narrative movies prescribe linear narratives that cue the viewer to expect predictable outcomes and adopt a closed state of mind. There are, however, a small number of movies that, through the presentation of alternate narrative paths, open the mind to thoughts of choice and possibility. Through the study of several key movies for which this concept is central, such as Sliding Doors, Run Lola Run, Inglourious Basterds, and Rashomon, Nitzan Ben Shaul examines the causes and implications of optional thinking and how these movies allow for more open and...

Maternal subjectivity and kibbutz childhood
ISBN: 9783639290035 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. The maternal body has been theorised by the French theoretician Julia Kristeva as the site where bodily materials cross the boundary of the body, for example, the event of birth. The abject is a feeling of horror and fear when these boundaries are crossed, with regard to social conventions of what is accepted and what is rejected. As children, we learn to control our bodily boundaries as this is a condition for social acceptance. However, as mothers we return to this process of being between body and society through our maternal bodies. Elizabeth Groszs critique of Kristevas...

Hyper-Narrative Interactive Cinema: Problems and Solutions
ISBN: 9789042024618 / Angielski / Miękka / 2008 / 95 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Hyper narrative interactive cinema refers to the possibility for users or "interactors" to shift at different points in an evolving film narrative to other film narrative trajectories. Such works have resulted so far in interactor distraction rather than sustained engagement. Contrary to post-modern textual and cognitive presumptions, film immersion and computer game theories, this study uses dual coding theory, cognitive load theory, and constructivist narrative film theory to claim that interactive hyper-narrative distraction results from cognitive and behavioral multi-tasking, which lead...

Hidden Identity
ISBN: 9783838398327 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. Movies are an interesting source for research on American-Jewish identity. There are relatively many Jewish film directors with movies featuring Jewish protagonists. This book concentrates on how Jews are represented in the movies of Sidney Lumet, Mel Brooks, and Barry Levinson, and to what extent these movies shed light on changes to American Jewish identity in the latter part of the twentieth century. As a minority, Jews are more susceptible to assimilation, as they have less to fear from anti-Semitism in modern society. However, American Jews have found several ways to keep their Jewish...

Collective Preference and Choice
ISBN: 9780521897259 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Collective decision-making is a familiar feature of our social, political, and economic lives. It ranges from the relatively trivial (e.g. the choice of the next family car) to the globally significant (e.g. whether or not a country should go to war). Yet, whether trivial or globally significant, such decisions involve a number of challenging problems. These problems arise in the standard social choice setting, where individuals differ in their preferences. They also arise in the standard decision-making setting, where individuals share the same preferences, but differ in their decisional...

Jacob Sigismund Beck's Standpunctslehre and the Kantian Thing-In-Itself Debate: The Relation Between a Representation and Its Object
ISBN: 9783319347585 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 398 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 10-14 dni roboczych. This book examines the unique views of philosopher Jacob Sigismund Beck, a student of Immanuel Kant who devoted himself to an exploration of his teacher's doctrine and to showing that Kant's transcendental idealism is, contra to the common view, both internally consistent and is not a form of subjective idealism. In his attempt to explain away certain apparent contradictions found in Kant's system, Beck put forward a new reading of Kant's critical theory, a view, which came to be known as the Standpunctslehre, the Doctrine of the Standpoint. Author Lior Nitzan reconstructs,... This book examines the unique views of philosopher Jacob Sigismund Beck, a student of Immanuel Kant who devoted himself to an exploration of his te... |

The Management of Hate: Nation, Affect, and the Governance of Right-Wing Extremism in Germany
ISBN: 9780691171951 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Since German reunification in 1990, there has been widespread concern about marginalized young people who, faced with bleak prospects for their future, have embraced increasingly violent forms of racist nationalism that glorify the country's Nazi past. The Management of Hate, Nitzan Shoshan's riveting account of the year and a half he spent with these young right-wing extremists in East Berlin, reveals how they contest contemporary notions of national identity and defy the cliches that others use to represent them. Shoshan situates them within what he calls the governance of...

The Politics of Nihilism: From the Nineteenth Century to Contemporary Israel
ISBN: 9781623561482 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Contemporary politics is faced, on the one hand, with political stagnation and lack of a progressive vision on the side of formal, institutional politics, and, on the other, with various social movements that venture to challenge modern understandings of representation, participation, and democracy. Interestingly, both institutional and anti-institutional sides of this antagonism tend to accuse each other of "nihilism," namely, of mere oppositional destructiveness and failure to offer a constructive, positive alternative to the status quo. Nihilism seems, then, all engulfing. In... Contemporary politics is faced, on the one hand, with political stagnation and lack of a progressive vision on the side of formal, institutional po... |

Capital as Power: A Study of Order and Creorder
ISBN: 9780415496803 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Conventional theories of capitalism are mired in a deep crisis: after centuries of debate, they are still unable to tell us what capital is. Liberals and Marxists both think of capital as an 'economic' entity that they count in universal units of 'utils' or 'abstract labour', respectively. But these units are totally fictitious. Nobody has ever been able to observe or measure them, and for a good reason: they don't exist. Since liberalism and Marxism depend on these non-existing units, their theories hang in suspension. They cannot explain the process that matters most - the accumulation...
