¿Das menschliche Gesicht gilt einerseits als subtiler, ¿schwacher Code¿, das sich im Alltag den Deutungen der menschlichen Wahrnehmung immer wieder zu entziehen scheint. Andererseits wird gerade in Medien wie dem Film das Gesicht strategische eingesetzt, um unterschwellig Botschaften zu vermitteln. Die Bild-Werdung des Menschen hat, wie diese Arbeit zeigt, nicht erst mit dem Aufkommen von Diktaturen seine ¿Unschuld¿ verloren. Aber erst im Modus seiner Lesbarmachung, als still gestelltes Bild wie es in Form der Großaufnahme im Film zur Geltung kommt, kann es als scheinbare Evidenz seine manipulierende Funktion einnehmen.Ob in Deutschland, Italien oder Russland ¿ alle diese Diktaturen wollen sich zu Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts der Arbeiterschaft versichern, um ihre ideologischen Ziele zu verwirklichen. Das kulturell und symbolisch vorgeprägte Gesicht, muss daher für die Propaganda umcodiert werden. Dem immer noch weit verbreiteten Verdikt der ¿Gleichschaltung¿ wird jedoch in diesem Buch differenziert gegenübergetreten: Die Möglichkeiten des Gesichts, es für unterschiedlichen historischen Konstellationen und Herausforderungen anzupassen und zu instrumentalisieren, machen es zu einem facettenreichen Medium für rhetorische Strategien.

The approximately 240 photographs within this monograph were made between 1979 and 1989 in the Lancashire town of Blackburn. They capture the essence of the town during this turbulent period, showing Blackburn's industrial heritage, its diverse population and its resilience in the face of change. The photographs also explore themes such as ethnicity, the local economy, labour relations, privatisation, unemployment, recreation, entertainment, politics, landscape and urban regeneration. The book is enriched with personal stories and anecdotes from many of the subjects of the photographs, providing a unique and intimate glimpse into life in Blackburn in the 1980s. As a disabled photographer, Christopher's identity and work are inseparable. His photographs reflect his unique perspective on Blackburn and its people. From the outset, he intended to create an intimate and personal interpretation, as a disabled artist, rather than a sanitised tourist guide. It would be a chronicle of the effects of the political and social climate of the time on Blackburn and Christopher's journey through it.The first phase of the project, from 1979 to 1985, produced a series of photographs that formed a touring exhibition funded by the North West Arts Council and Blackburn Borough Council. The exhibition, titled "Blackburn: A Town and Its People," opened at the Lewis Textile Museum in Blackburn in 1985. It was opened by Jack Straw, a former government minister and Blackburn's constituency MP, and toured various venues throughout the UK.Christopher continued to photograph Blackburn until 1989, when he left town to attend university. This work, spanning a decade, formed a consistent study of Blackburn. Christopher stored the negatives for the next few decades, but always longed to return to them. In 2015, he embarked on a mission to digitise, restore and archive the original negatives. Over the years, he had lost the names of some of the subjects in the photographs, and he was determined to rectify that. Christopher took to social media to do just that. The response was overwhelming. Many people had never seen the photographs before, and Christopher was able to give them digital copies as keepsakes. In some cases, the photograph was the only one they had of a deceased loved one. Some people were kind enough to contribute a short paragraph of text to accompany their image in the book. This adds a deeply personal touch to the finished work.

The Journey Continues... BECOMING UNTIL is Marjorie J. Levine's latest collection of poetry and is a bookend to her critically acclaimed debut poetry book, ROAD TRIPS. The bends in the road as life advances become mercurial passages and the moment comes when a life lived as one young with limitless possibilities becomes, just like that, an existence that settles into an almost tapered old age with many decades that recede into a personal past. In this collection of poems, the author creates a vision of her autumn years as defined by a time when she has been left behind but is slowly evolving and becoming until the time she joins again all the many in her journey who have fallen away. The anthology is structured into three distinct sections: HAIKUS, STREET POEMS, and MAGICAL THINKING, and culminates with her concluding piece, THE BEND IN THE HIGHWAY. A SIDE GLANCE Yesterday is still Inside me like a new view I hold on tightly.

The first existentialist philosopher is generally regarded to have been Sren Kierkegaard, a Danish philosopher, theologian, poet, social critic, and novelist. With a penchant for metaphor, sarcasm, and parables, he published critical works on organised religion, Christendom, morality, ethics, psychology, and the philosophy of religion. He emphasises the value of individual choice and dedication while placing a strong emphasis on how one should live as a "single individual" and prioritising tangible human experience above abstract thought.

Verantwortung ist zum Schlüsselbegriff evangelischer Ethik geworden. Trotzdem ist die Ambivalenz der Zurechnung von Verantwortung - auch durch Ethik selbst - kaum reflektiert worden. Um dies nachzuholen, bearbeitet der Band praxissoziologische und imaginationstheoretische Kategorien für die Selbstreflexion evangelischer Ethik. Das ermöglicht es, Verantwortung als soziale Praxis zu verstehen. Die Ambivalenz dieser Praxis wird untersucht, indem systematisch der Mehrwert des Verantwortungsbegriffs insbesondere gegenüber dem Pflichtbegriff herausarbeitet wird. Dann werden Imaginationen diskutiert, die der Verantwortungsbegriff in Diskursen vor allem evangelischer Ethik konnotiert. Abschließend wird der Ansatz einer ambivalenzsensiblen, selbstreflexiven Ethik freier Verantwortung entwickelt, die endliche und fehlbare Verantwortungsübernahmen im Horizont des Unverantwortbaren orientieren soll. Der Band schlägt evangelischer Ethik einen konkreten Verantwortungsbegriff vor, zeichnet Linien der Begriffsgeschichte nach, lotet die Ambivalenzen von Verantwortungspraktiken imaginationstheoretisch aus und entwickelt Kategorien und Orientierungen für den Verantwortungsgebrauch, die gerade für Materialethiken hochrelevant sind.

Nach einem weit verbreiteten Urteil gibt Kant der Ökonomie in seinem Werk keinen nennenswerten Raum. Die vorliegende Studie widerlegt dies, indem sie Kants Äußerungen zu ökonomischen Themen systematisiert: zur Selbstständigkeit, zum Kaufmann, zum Handel, zum Geld, zur "Staatswirthschaft" sowie zum technischen Fortschritt. Sie erschließt Kants Ökonomie aus der Ergänzung rechtlicher und ethischer Pflichten durch deren anthropologische Ausführungsbedingungen. Dabei geht sie aus von einem zeitgenössischen Verständnis der Ökonomie als Wissenschaft vom Wohlstand. Im deutschsprachigen Raum des 18. Jahrhunderts konkurrieren hier drei Paradigmen miteinander: das aristotelische, das smithianische und das kameralistische. Sie identifizieren jeweils das Haus, den Markt oder den Staat als zentrale Handlungssphäre der Ökonomie. Die Studie kommt zu dem Schluss, dass Kants praktische Philosophie für Ergänzungen aus jeder dieser ökonomischen Handlungssphären offen ist, solange diese freiheitliche Prinzipien erfüllen; sie ist damit nicht, wie gelegentlich behauptet, auf eine einzige Wirtschaftsordnung festgelegt, etwa auf eine rein marktliberale. Relevant ist dies für die Kant-Forschung, für die Wirtschaftsphilosophie sowie für die Ideengeschichte.

Geophysics and the Energy Transition involves four sections: What is the Energy Transition and why storage so important; selecting sites for storage; advanced monitoring technology; and moving forward to integrating Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) within the Energy Transition. Geophysics will also play a role in finding and developing alternatives to fossil fuels such as natural hydrogen and geothermal using much of the knowledge gained from the CO2 storage industry. To provide the public and others with the confidence to move forward with a structured and cost-effective energy transition, this book provides the necessary evidence that we can store CO2 safely and effectively and use this as a significant component of the energy transition.¿We can also find and store new energy sources. Geophysics and the Energy Transition is written by experts in the field who have practiced the science and engineering associated with the subsurface for years. CCS is an integral component of the new energy transition but the application of Geophysics in the future will extend well beyond CCS if we are going to transition successfully to a carbon neutral environment. Science, engineering, and technology applications are important for site selection, characterization and monitoring to assure safe storage in the subsurface and energy sustainability in the future.¿

"Thoughts on Man" is a philosophical work written by William Godwin, an English philosopher, writer, and political theorist. Godwin is best known for his work "Political Justice," which had a significant influence on political thought during the late 18th and early 19th centuries.In "Thoughts on Man," Godwin explores various aspects of human nature, society, and morality. The book delves into questions concerning the nature of the mind, the origins of human behavior, and the principles of morality and justice. Godwin was deeply influenced by the Enlightenment ideals of reason, liberty, and progress, and these themes are evident throughout his work.One of the central ideas in "Thoughts on Man" is the belief in the perfectibility of human nature. Godwin argues that through the application of reason and moral principles, humans have the potential to overcome their flaws and achieve a state of virtue and happiness. He emphasizes the importance of education and intellectual development in realizing this potential.Godwin also critiques social institutions such as government, religion, and marriage, arguing that they often serve to oppress individuals and stifle their natural abilities. He advocates for a more egalitarian and libertarian society based on voluntary cooperation and mutual respect.Overall, "Thoughts on Man" reflects Godwin's optimistic view of human potential and his belief in the power of reason to improve society. The book remains an important work in the history of philosophy, particularly for its contributions to political and moral theory.

This book proposes and develops the equilibrium compound nucleus post-fission theory, a powerful tool for studying the fission process and making numerical calculations of post-fission nuclear data. It begins with a detailed historical background on fission theory and covers fundamental concepts, such as the Bohr-Wheeler formula and time dependent nuclear density functional theory.The authors explain the kinematics of heavy-ion collisions and develop a heavy-ion spherical optical model. They also present the theoretical methods for calculating the yield, kinetic energy distribution, and angular distribution of fission fragments in the initial state of fission. In addition, readers are provided with the method for calculating the prompt neutron and prompt gamma-ray data as well as the proportion of the isomeric state nucleus and independent yield from the initial yield of the fission fragments. Using the nuclear decay data of the fission products, a method for calculating thecumulative yield and decay heat of the fission fragments is also given. A fission delayed neutron simplification model is proposed and the theoretical method for calculating the total contribution of three fission channels to post-fission nuclear data is provided.This book concludes with a step-by-step guide on numerical calculations for post-fission nuclear data and a Fortran program for optimizing the best theoretical model parameters. It is ideal for both junior and senior researchers in nuclear physics, as well as graduate students who are interested learning about the subject. Given the current interest in post-fission and the tremendous experimental and theoretical efforts in studying it, this book serves as a timely and comprehensive resource for the nuclear physics community.

The most provocative philosopher of our times returns with a rousing and counterintuitive analysis of our global predicamentWe hear all the time that it's five minutes to global doomsday, so now is our last chance to avert disaster. But what if the only way to prevent a catastrophe is to assume that it has already happened - that we're already five minutes past zero hour?Why do we seem unable to avert our course to self-destruction? Too Late to Awaken sees Slavoj Žižek deliver his most forceful, hopeful account of our discontents yet. Surveying the interlocking crises we currently face - global warming, war, famine, disease - he points us towards the radical, emancipatory politics that we need in order to halt our drift towards disaster.Pithy, urgent and witty, Žižek's diagnosis reveals our current geopolitical nightmare in a startling new light, and shows why, in order to change our future, we must reimagine our past.

A Guardian book to look out for in 2024An insightful exploration of the nature of inequality by the internationally bestselling author of Capital in the Twenty-First Century.In his newest work, Thomas Piketty explores how social inequality manifests itself very differently depending on the society and epoch in which it arises. History and culture play a central role, inequality being strongly linked to various socio-economic, political, civilisational, and religious developments. So it is culture in the broadest sense that makes it possible to explain the diversity, extent, and structure of the social inequality that we observe every day.Piketty briefly and concisely presents a lively synthesis of his work, taking up such diverse topics as education, inheritance, taxes, and the climate crisis, and provides exciting food for thought for a highly topical debate: Does natural inequality exist?

Yo a mis años, ya haya sido x curiosidad o x cualquier otro motivo ya abrí el paquete.Espero les sea de su agrado esta amena lectura.Andrea Hull.

It is not sufficient to speak of violence alone: sexual violence, racial violence, the violence of exploitation. In capitalism - Maurizio Lazzarato writes - production, whether material or immaterial, affective or desiring, always presupposes the extra-economic, extra-affective, extra-cognitive production of social classes. For production, there must be class; and to produce class, there must be a war of subjugation. For a long time, war no longer seemed to be part of political debates - it seemed merely a phenomenon from the past or the fate of distant countries on the planet. In his essay War and Violence post-operaist philosopher Maurizio Lazzarato talks about the permanent continuity of warlike violence, its relation to the beginning of capitalist cycles of accumulation, and the production of subjectivity.
