Book Description
NOTRE TRAVAIL CHERCHE A INTERROGER LE RAPPORT PHILOSOPHIQUE CONSTRUIT PAR CANGUILHEM ENTRE LE VITAL ET LE SOCIAL. IL S'AGIT DE COMPRENDRE COMMENT UNE CREATION INTERNE A LA VIE, DESIGNEE PAR CANGUILHEM SOUS LE TERME DE "NORMATIVITE" CONDUIT A UNE CERTAINE ELABORATION DES RAPPORTS DU VITAL ET DU SOCIAL PAR LAQUELLE EST PENSEE L'HISTOIRE DE L'HOMME A PARTIR D'UNE ANALYSE DE L'INDIVIDUALISATION VITALE ET DE LA SUBJECTIVITE HUMAINE. LA NOUVEAUTE DE CANGUILHEM RESIDE, SELON NOUS, DANS SA TENTATIVE DE RENDRE IMMANENTE LA NORME A LA VIE, INDUISANT UNE INSCRIPTION DE L'HISTOIRE HUMAINE DANS L'HISTOIRE DE LA VIE. DES LORS QUE LA VIE EST DEFINIE COMME CREATION DE NORMES, TOUT VIVANT AFFIRME SES PROPRES NORMES, LES CREE LE CAS ECHEANT, ENTRE EN CONFLIT AVEC LES VIVANTS CREATEURS D'AUTRES NORMES. IL EN RESULTE UNE REFORME DE L'ANTHROPOLOGIE A PARTIR DE LA QUESTION DE LA VIE. SELON NOTRE HYPOTHESE, LE SENS DE L'EXPERIENCE ANTHROPOLOGIQUE NE RESIDE PAS TANT DANS UNE FERMETURE DE L'HOMME SUR SES PROPRES CARACTERISTIQUES QUE DANS UNE CIRCULATION DES COMPORTEMENTS QUI CONJOIGNENT VITALITE ET SOCIALITE, ACTIVITE ET SUBJECTIVITE. LA DETERMINATION DES NORMES HUMAINES N'A DE VALEUR QUE SOUTENUE PAR DESCAPACITES NORMATIVES PUISEES DANS LE REGISTRE DE LA VIE. L'INTERVENTION DU VITAL DANS LA CONSTITUTION SOCIALE DE L'HOMME FAIT SURGIR DES ELEMENTS EXTERIEURS A L'HUMAINE CONDITION, PUISES DANS L'ORDRE DE LA NATURE, SOUVENT TENUS POUR ETRANGERS AU PROJET ANTHROPOLOGIQUE. UNE REFLEXION SUR LA VALEUR CREATRICE DE LA VIE PERMET DE COMPRENDRE LA MANIERE DONT L'HOMME EST CONSIDERE COMME UN VIVANT NORMATIF, ENGAGEANT SES VALEURS DE VIE DANS DES VALORISATIONS CULTURELLES ET SOCIALES. CETTE VALORISATION EST DICTEE PAR LA POSSIBILITE D'UNE DEVALORISATION ENGENDREE PAR LE PATHOLOGIQUE, PRIS POUR VALEUR NORMATIVE MOINDRE. LE PATHOLOGIQUE, QUI N'EST PAS ABSENCE DE NORMES MAIS RESTRICTION DE LEUR FONCTIONNEMENT, ORIENTE LE VIVANT HUMAIN VERS LA CONSCIENCE SUBJECTIVE DE SA PROPRE INDIVIDUALITE.

Book Description
What constitutes a need? Who gets to decide what people do or do not need? In modern France, scientists, both amateur and professional, were engaged in defining and measuring human needs. These scientists did not trust in a providential economy to distribute the fruits of labor and uphold the social order. Rather, they believed that social organization should be actively directed according to scientific principles. They grounded their study of human needs on quantifiable foundations: agricultural and physiological experiments, demographic studies, and statistics. The result was the concept of the "vital minimum"--the living wage, a measure of physical and social needs. In this book, Dana Simmons traces the history of this concept, revealing the intersections between technologies of measurement, such as calorimeters and social surveys, and technologies of wages and welfare, such as minimum wages, poor aid, and welfare programs. In looking at how we define and measure need, Vital Minimum raises profound questions about the authority of nature and the nature of inequality.

Book Description
Why was the discourse of family values so pivotal to the conservative and free-market revolution of the 1980s and why has it continued to exert such a profound influence on American political life? Why have free-market neoliberals so often made common cause with social conservatives on the question of family, despite their differences on all other issues? In this book, Melinda Cooper challenges the idea that neoliberalism privileges atomized individualism over familial solidarities, and contractual freedom over inherited status. Delving into the history of the American poor laws, she shows how the liberal ethos of personal responsibility was always undergirded by a wider imperative of family responsibility and how this investment in kinship obligations recurrently facilitated the working relationship between free-market liberals and social conservatives. Neoliberalism, she argues, must be understood as an effort to revive and extend the poor law tradition in the contemporary idiom of household debt. As neoliberal policymakers imposed cuts to health, education, and welfare budgets, they simultaneously identified the family as a wholesale alternative to the twentieth-century welfare state. And as the responsibility for deficit spending shifted from the state to the household, the private debt obligations of family were defined as foundational to socio-economic order. Despite their differences, neoliberals and social conservatives were in agreement that the bonds of family needed to be encouraged — and at the limit enforced — as a necessary counterpart to market freedom. In a series of case studies ranging from Clinton’s welfare reform to the AIDS epidemic, and from same-sex marriage to the student loan crisis, Cooper explores the key policy contributions made by neoliberal economists and legal theorists. Only by restoring the question of family to its central place in the neoliberal project, she argues, can we make sense of the defining political alliance of our times, that between free-market economics and social conservatism.

Book Description
A growing sense of urgency over obesity at the national and international level has led to a proliferation of medical and non-medical interventions into the daily lives of individuals and populations. This work focuses on the biopolitical use of lifestyle to govern individual choice and secure population health from the threat of obesity. The characterization of obesity as a threat to society caused by the cumulative effect of individual lifestyles has led to the politicization of daily choices, habits and practices as potential threats. This book critically examines these unquestioned assumptions about obesity and lifestyle, and their relation to wider debates surrounding neoliberal governmentality, biopolitical regulation of populations, discipline of bodies, and the possibility of community resistance. The rationale for this book follows Michel Foucault’s approach of problematization, addressing the way lifestyle is problematized as a biopolitical domain in neoliberal societies. Mayes argues that in response to the threat of obesity, lifestyle has emerged as a network of disparate knowledges, relations and practices through which individuals are governed toward the security of the population’s health. Although a central focus is government health campaigns, this volume demonstrates that the network of lifestyle emanates from a variety of overlapping domains and disciplines, including public health, clinical medicine, media, entertainment, school programs, advertising, sociology and ethics. This book offers a timely critique of the continued interventions into the lives of individuals and communities by government agencies, private industries, medical and non-medical experts in the name of health and population security and will be of interests to students and scholars of critical international relations theory, health and bioethics and governmentality studies.

Book Description
In her surprising, entertaining, and persuasive new book, award-winning author and psychologist Susan Pinker shows how face-to-face contact is crucial for learning, happiness, resilience, and longevity. From birth to death, human beings are hardwired to connect to other human beings. Face-to-face contact matters: tight bonds of friendship and love heal us, help children learn, extend our lives, and make us happy. Looser in-person bonds matter, too, combining with our close relationships to form a personal “village” around us, one that exerts unique effects. Not just any social networks will do: we need the real, in-the-flesh encounters that tie human families, groups of friends, and communities together. Marrying the findings of the new field of social neuroscience with gripping human stories, Susan Pinker explores the impact of face-to-face contact from cradle to grave, from city to Sardinian mountain village, from classroom to workplace, from love to marriage to divorce. Her results are enlightening and enlivening, and they challenge many of our assumptions. Most of us have left the literal village behind and don’t want to give up our new technologies to go back there. But, as Pinker writes so compellingly, we need close social bonds and uninterrupted face-time with our friends and families in order to thrive—even to survive. Creating our own “village effect” makes us happier. It can also save our lives. Praise for The Village Effect “The benefits of the digital age have been oversold. Or to put it another way: there is plenty of life left in face-to-face, human interaction. That is the message emerging from this entertaining book by Susan Pinker, a Canadian psychologist. Citing a wealth of research and reinforced with her own arguments, Pinker suggests we should make an effort—at work and in our private lives—to promote greater levels of personal intimacy.”—Financial Times “Drawing on scores of psychological and sociological studies, [Pinker] suggests that living as our ancestors did, steeped in face-to-face contact and physical proximity, is the key to health, while loneliness is ‘less an exalted existential state than a public health risk.’ That her point is fairly obvious doesn’t diminish its importance; smart readers will take the book out to a park to enjoy in the company of others.”—The Boston Globe “A hopeful, warm guide to living more intimately in an disconnected era.”—Publishers Weekly “A terrific book . . . Pinker makes a hardheaded case for a softhearted virtue. Read this book. Then talk about it—in person!—with a friend.”—Daniel H. Pink, New York Times bestselling author of Drive and To Sell Is Human “What do Sardinian men, Trader Joe’s employees, and nuns have in common? Real social networks—though not the kind you’ll find on Facebook or Twitter. Susan Pinker’s delightful book shows why face-to-face interaction at home, school, and work makes us healthier, smarter, and more successful.”—Charles Duhigg, New York Times bestselling author of The Power of Habit: Why We Do What We Do in Life and Business “Provocative and engaging . . . Pinker is a great storyteller and a thoughtful scholar. This is an important book, one that will shape how we think about the increasingly virtual world we all live in.”—Paul Bloom, author of Just Babies: The Origins of Good and Evil From the Hardcover edition.

Book Description
Social science knowledge and skills are essential to business operations and development in a wide range of business sectors in the UK, according to a new report by the Campaign for Social Science and SAGE Publishing. Based on in-depth interviews with business leaders at Cisco, Deloitte, Royal Dutch Shell, Willis-Re, WSP and more, the report’s findings reveal that employees with social science training are often the operational enablers keeping businesses afloat - HR, accounting, finance, marketing and legal - and play key roles in facilitating and increasing business growth, product development, risk management and strategic planning. As the need for a post-pandemic economic recovery strategy becomes ever more urgent, and as government considers future and higher education, insights from Vital Business: The Essential Role of Social Sciences in the UK Private Sector are both timely and apt. Above all, the report demonstrates that social science subjects are vital for business and should be both welcomed and supported by government in the education system at school and university, alongside STEM disciplines, as essential to the workforce of today and tomorrow.
