Book Description
La catastrophe écologique est enclenchée, le désastre est devenu notre quotidien, la crise du coronavirus a fracturé le monde entier. Un responsable : le capitalisme, alias néo-libéralisme. En saccageant le service public de la santé, il a transformé une crise grave mais gérable en catastrophe. En poursuivant malgré toutes les alertes écologistes la destruction des écosystèmes, il a mis en contact des virus mortels et la population humaine. En aggravant les inégalités, il a plongé des dizaines de millions d’humains dans la misère. Pourtant, le gong avait déjà sonné, lors de la crise de 2008-2009. Mais les capitalistes n’en ont pas tenu compte et ont rebâti le système sur les mêmes principes. En renouvelant leur base idéologique, dans un sens encore plus cynique, qu’analyse cet essai : acceptation du désastre écologique en cours ; diffusion d’une utopie technologique fondée sur l’intelligence artificielle, la numérisation généralisée, les biotechnologies ; etc. Ce nouveau capitalisme se heurte à la terrible réalité de son échec. Il va cependant essayer de conserver l’essentiel de sa logique mortifère. Des stratégies de résistance sont possibles et nécessaires, sur lesquelles Hervé Kempf concentre alors l’analyse. Il est urgent, ainsi, de considérer l’oligarchie pour ce qu’elle est : une caste criminelle. On ne la convaincra pas, on la contraindra. Il faut, ensuite, envisager tous les moyens d’action pour la combattre ; articuler l’action à une stratégie de communication ; forger de nouvelles alliances sociales. Raconter le nouveau monde écologiste et juste, devenu le plus réaliste et adapté au temps qui est. Conjuguer, enfin, l’archipel des espaces de résistance et de résilience, des lieux de vie différente, pour en faire la nouvelle culture de la vie quotidienne.

Book Description
La 4ème de couverture indique : "Le capitalisme n'en finit plus de saccager le monde. La catastrophe écologique est enclenchée, les écosystèmes se disloquent, les pandémies ont envahi le quotidien, le contrôle numérique et la répression font reculer les libertés, les inégalités galopent. Un tel désastre est possible parce que le capitalisme s'est renforcé en forgeant un nouveau paradigme : le technocapitalisme. Dans cette nouvelle vision du monde, l'avenir sera technologique, fondé sur la numérisation et l'intelligence artificielle. Il conduira à une nouvelle élite hybridée avec les machines. Et la masse de l'humanité sera rejetée dans le chaos climatique, au prix d'un apartheid généralisé. Face à cette fantasmagorie, des stratégies de résistance sont nécessaires, possibles et nombreuses. Cet ouvrage est un outil essentiel pour comprendre la mutation qui détermine l'époque et pour s'engager sur les terrains de lutte."

Book Description
A best seller in France, and already translated into Spanish, Italian, Greek, and Korean, Hervé Kempf'sHow the Rich Are Destroying the Earth now appears in its first English edition. Bringing to bear more than twenty years of experience as an environmental journalist, Kempf describes the invincibility that many of the world's wealthy feel in the face of global warming, and how their unchecked privilege is thwarting action on the single most vexing problem facing our world.In this important primer on the link between global ecology and the global economy, Kempf makes the following observations: First, that the planet's ecological situation is growing ever worse, despite the efforts of millions of engaged citizens around the world. And second, despite environmentalists' emphasis that "we're all in the same boat," the world's economic elites--who continue to benefit by plundering the environment--have access to "lifeboats" that insulate them from the resulting catastrophes.Societies have not been able to effectively combat the expanding ecological crisis because it is intimately linked to the social crisis in which the ruling form of capitalism has been organized to impede democratic initiatives. This link explains the failure to make progress against the greatest emergency of our time, because in this relationship the oligarchy plays an essential and destructive role. For this reason, solving the ecological crisis depends on disrupting the power of the world's elite.We cannot understand the entwined ecological and social crises, Kempf argues, if we don't see them as the two sides of the same disaster--a disaster that comes from a system piloted by a dominant social strata that has no drive other than greed, no ideal other than conservatism, no dream other than technology. But Kempf also calls for measured optimism: "Despite the scale of the challenges that await us, solutions are emerging and--faced with the sinister prospects the oligarchs promote--the desire to remake the world is being reborn."

Book Description
The Violence of Modernity turns to Charles Baudelaire, one of the most canonical figures of literary modernism, in order to reclaim an aesthetic legacy for ethical inquiry and historical critique. Works of modern literature are commonly theorized as symptomatic responses to the trauma of history. In a climate that tends to privilege crisis over critique, Debarati Sanyal argues that it is urgent to rethink literary experience in terms that recall its contestatory potential. Examining Baudelaire's poems afresh, she shifts the focus of critical attention toward an account of modernism as an active engagement with violence, specifically the violence of history in nineteenth-century France. Sanyal analyzes a literary current that uses the traditional hallmarks of modernism—irony, intertextuality, self-reflexivity, and formalism—to challenge the historical violence of modernity. Baudelaire and the committed ironists writing in his wake teach us how to read and resist the violence of history, and thereby to challenge the melancholy tenor of our contemporary "wound culture." In a series of provocative readings, Sanyal presents Baudelaire's poetry as an aesthetic form that contests historical violence through rhetorical strategies of complicity, counterviolence, and critique. The book develops a new account of Baudelaire's significance as a modernist by dislodging him both from his traditional status as a practitioner of "art for art's sake" and from his more recent incarnation as the poet of trauma. Following her extended analysis of Baudelaire's poetry, Sanyal in later chapters considers a number of authors influenced by his strategies—including Rachilde, Virginie Despentes, Albert Camus, and Jean-Paul Sartre—to examine the relevance of their interventions for our current climate of trauma and terror. The result is a study that underscores how Baudelaire's legacy continues to energize literary engagements with the violence of modernity.

Book Description
In a near-future world ravaged by climate change, who will win in the struggle between humanity and nature? A thick fog rolls in over Shivering Heights. The river overflows, the sky is streaked with toxic green, parasites proliferate in torrential rains and once safely classified species – humans included – are evolving and behaving in unprecedented ways. Against this poetically hostile backdrop, a biologist, Laura, fights to understand the nature and scope of the changes transforming her own body and the world around her. Ten lush and bracing linked climate fictions depict a world gorgeous and terrifying in its likeness to our own. Fauna, Christiane Vadnais’s first work of fiction, won the Horizons Imaginaires speculative fiction award, the City of Quebec book award, and was named one of 2018’s best books by Radio-Canada.

Book Description
Michel de Certeau considers the uses to which social representation and modes of social behavior are put by individuals and groups, describing the tactics available to the common man for reclaiming his own autonomy from the all-pervasive forces of commerce, politics, and culture. In exploring the public meaning of ingeniously defended private meanings, de Certeau draws on an immense theoretical literature in analytic philosophy, linguistics, sociology, semiology, and anthropology--to speak of an apposite use of imaginative literature.
Author: Henri Lefebvre Publisher: Wiley-Blackwell ISBN: 9780631181774 Category : Philosophy Languages : en Pages : 464
Book Description
Henri Lefebvre has considerable claims to be the greatest living philosopher. His work spans some sixty years and includes original work on a diverse range of subjects, from dialectical materialism to architecture, urbanism and the experience of everyday life. The Production of Space is his major philosophical work and its translation has been long awaited by scholars in many different fields. The book is a search for a reconciliation between mental space (the space of the philosophers) and real space (the physical and social spheres in which we all live). In the course of his exploration, Henri Lefebvre moves from metaphysical and ideological considerations of the meaning of space to its experience in the everyday life of home and city. He seeks, in other words, to bridge the gap between the realms of theory and practice, between the mental and the social, and between philosophy and reality. In doing so, he ranges through art, literature, architecture and economics, and further provides a powerful antidote to the sterile and obfuscatory methods and theories characteristic of much recent continental philosophy. This is a work of great vision and incisiveness. It is also characterized by its author's wit and by anecdote, as well as by a deftness of style which Donald Nicholson-Smith's sensitive translation precisely captures.
