Futures Beyond Dystopia: Creating Social Foresight
ISBN: 9780415302708 / Angielski / Miękka / 2003 / 306 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Futures Beyond Dystopia takes the view that the dominant trends in the world suggest a long-term decline into unliveable Dystopian futures. The human prospect is therefore very challenging, yet the perception of dangers and dysfunctions is the first step towards dealing with them. The motivation to avoid future dangers is matched by the human need to create plans and move forward. These twin motivations can be very powerful and help to stimulate the fields of Futures Studies and Applied Foresight. This analysis of current Futures practice is split into six sections: The Case Against Hegemony...

Slaughter shows in this landmark history, the roots of the Revolution went back even further than Adams may have realized.

Language As Disclosure: Reading Language in the Works of Five American Modernists
ISBN: 9780692553916 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 244 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Written in the 1980's, heyday of Deconstruction in university English Departments, Carolyn Norman Slaughter's study probes the ways that language "works" in the literature of a few American modernist authors. Slaughter's purpose is not to prove the futility and "meaning"lessness of language, as Deconstruction was striving to do at the time, but instead to recover the first-order importance and power of language, its radical effects, as set out in the philosophy of Martin Heidegger where language works to disclose, reveal, unfold (Erschliessen). However, German philosopher Martin Heidegger...
