(P/B) ECONOMIC THOUGHT
A BRIEF HISTORY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3949-0191

In this concise yet comprehensive history, Heinz D. Kurz traces the long arc of economic thought from its emergence in ancient Greece to its systematic presentation among the classical thinkers of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries to the influential work of scholars such as Paul Samuelson and Kenneth J. Arrow. With a keen eye for how economic insights are acquired, lost, and reborn, Kurz focuses on the dynamic individuals who give old ideas new life and the historical events that provoke different approaches and theories. ...

(P/B) COURSE IN GENERAL LINGUISTICS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3949-0127

The founder of modern linguistics, Ferdinand de Saussure inaugurated semiology, structuralism, and deconstruction and made possible the work of Jacques Derrida, Roland Barthes, Michel Foucault, and Jacques Lacan, thus enabling the development of French feminism, gender studies, New Historicism, and postcolonialism. Based on Saussure's lectures, Course in General Linguistics (1916) traces the rise and fall of the historical linguistics in which Saussure was trained, the synchronic or structural linguistics with which he replaced it, and the...

(P/B) TO WRITE AS IF ALREADY DEAD
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3949-0235

To Write as if Already Dead circles around Kate Zambreno's failed attempts to write a study of Herve Guibert's To the Friend Who Did Not Save My Life. In this diaristic, transgressive work, the first in a cycle written in the years preceding his death, Guibert documents with speed and intensity his diagnosis and disintegration from AIDS and elegizes a character based on Michel Foucault. The first half of To Write as if Already Dead is a novella in the mode of a detective story, searching after the mysterious disappearance of an online frie...

(P/B) AFTER UNIQUENESS
A HISTORY OF FILM AND VIDEO ART IN CIRCULATION
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3949-0241

Images have never been as freely circulated as they are today. They have also never been so tightly controlled. As with the birth of photography, digital reproduction has created new possibilities for the duplication and consumption of images, offering greater dissemination and access. But digital reproduction has also stoked new anxieties concerning authenticity and ownership. From this contemporary vantage point, After Uniqueness traces the ambivalence of reproducibility through the intersecting histories of experimental cinema and the m...

(P/B) SELECTED WRITINGS ON MEDIA, PROPAGANDA, AND POLITICAL COMMUNICATION
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3949-0240

This book brings together a broad selection of Kracauer's work on media and political communication, much of it previously unavailable in English. It features writings spanning more than two decades, from studies of totalitarian propaganda written in the 1930s to wartime work on Nazi newsreels and anti-Semitism through to examinations of American and Soviet political messaging in the early Cold War period. These varied texts illuminate the interplay among politics, mass culture, and the media, and they encompass Kracauer's core concerns: t...

(P/B) A CULTURAL HISTORY OF THE SOUL
EUROPE AND NORTH AMERICA FROM 1870 TO THE PRESENT
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3949-0238

The soul, which dominated many intellectual debates at the beginning of the twentieth century, has virtually disappeared from the sciences and the humanities. Yet it is everywhere in popular culture―from holistic therapies and new spiritual practices to literature and film to ecological and political ideologies. Ignored by scholars, it is hiding in plain sight in a plethora of religious, psychological, environmental, and scientific movements. This book uncovers the history of the concept of the soul in twentieth-century Europe and North Am...

(P/B) A NEW CULTURE OF ENERGY
BEYOND EAST AND WEST
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3949-0239

In A New Culture of Energy, Luce Irigaray reflects on three critical concerns of our time: the cultivation of energy in its many forms, the integration of Asian and Western traditions, and the reenvisioning of religious figures for the contemporary world. A philosopher as well as a psychoanalyst, Irigaray draws deeply on her personal experience in addressing these questions. In her view, although psychoanalysis can succeed in releasing mental energy, it fails to support physical and spiritual well-being. In pursuit of an alternative, she t...

(P/B) JOURNALISM IN THE AGE OF VIRTUAL REALITY
HOW EXPERIENTIAL MEDIA ARE TRANSFORMING NEWS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3949-0237

With the advent of the internet and handheld or wearable media systems that plunge the user into 360 video, augmented - or virtual reality - technology is changing how stories are told and created. In this book, John V. Pavlik argues that a new form of mediated communication has emerged: experiential news. Experiential media delivers not just news stories but also news experiences, in which the consumer engages news as a participant or virtual eyewitness in immersive, multisensory, and interactive narratives. Pavlik describes and analyzes ...

(P/B) NEWSMAKERS
ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND THE FUTURE OF JOURNALISM
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3949-0236

Will the use of artificial intelligence (AI), algorithms, and smart machines be the end of journalism as we know it - or its savior? In Newsmakers, Francesco Marconi, who has led the development of the Associated Press and Wall Street Journal's use of AI in journalism, offers a new perspective on the potential of these technologies. He explains how reporters, editors, and newsrooms of all sizes can take advantage of the possibilities they provide to develop new ways of telling stories and connecting with readers. Marconi analyzes the chall...

(H/B) WHAT IS A PEOPLE?
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3949-0175

"What Is a People?" seeks to reclaim "people" as an effective political concept by revisiting its uses and abuses over time. Alain Badiou surveys the idea of a people as a productive force of solidarity and emancipation and as a negative tool of categorization and suppression. Pierre Bourdieu follows with a sociolinguistic analysis of "popular" and its transformation of democracy, beliefs, songs, and even soups into phenomena with outsized importance. Judith Butler calls out those who use freedom of assembly to create an exclusionary "we,"...

A FLASH FICTION HANDBOOK
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3949-0226

In Brevity, David Galef provides a guide to writing flash fiction, from tips on technique to samples by canonical and contemporary authors to provocative prompts that inspire powerful stories in a little space. Galef traces the genre back to its varied origins, from the short-short to nanofiction, with examples that include vignettes, prose poems, character sketches, fables, lists, twist stories, surrealism, and metafiction. The authors range from the famous, such as Colette and Borges, to today's voices, like Roxane Gay and Bruce Holland ...

(H/B) ADORNO'S THEORY OF PHILOSOPHICAL AND AESTHETIC TRUTH
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3949-0234

In Adorno's Theory of Philosophical and Aesthetic Truth, Owen Hulatt undertakes an original reading of Theodor W. Adorno's epistemology and its material underpinnings, deepening our understanding of his theories of truth, art, and the nonidentical. Hulatt's novel interpretation casts Adorno's theory of philosophical and aesthetic truth as substantially unified, supporting the thinker's claim that both philosophy and art are capable of being true. For Adorno, truth is produced when rhetorical "texture" combines with cognitive "performance,"...

(P/B) BETWEEN MEN
ENGLISH LITERATURE AND MALE HOMOSOCIAL DESIRE
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3949-0206

First published in 1985, Between Men was a decisive intervention in gender studies, a book that all but singlehandedly dislodged a tradition of literary critique that suppressed queer subjects and subjectivities. With stunning foresight and conceptual power, Eve Kosofsky Sedgwick's work opened not only literature but also politics, society, and culture to broader investigations of power, sex, and desire, and to new possibilities of critical agency. Illuminating with uncanny prescience Western society's evolving debates on gender and sexual...

(H/B) PANTHEOLOGIES
GODS, WORLDS, MONSTERS
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3949-0215

Pantheism is the idea that God and the world are identical - that the creator, sustainer, destroyer, and transformer of all things is the universe itself. From a monotheistic perspective, this notion is irremediably heretical since it suggests divinity might be material, mutable, and multiple. Since the excommunication of Baruch Spinoza, Western thought has therefore demonized what it calls pantheism, accusing it of incoherence, absurdity, and - with striking regularity - monstrosity. In this book, Mary-Jane Rubenstein investigates this pe...

(P/B) BLACK SUN
DEPRESSION AND MELANCHOLIA
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3949-0223

In Black Sun, Julia Kristeva addresses the subject of melancholia, examining this phenomenon in the context of art, literature, philosophy, the history of religion and culture, as well as psychoanalysis. She describes the depressive as one who perceives the sense of self as a crucial pursuit and a nearly unattainable goal and explains how the love of a lost identity of attachment lies at the very core of depression's dark heart. In her discussion she analyzes Holbein's controversial 1522 painting "The Body of the Dead Christ in the Tomb," ...

(P/B) OPENING NATO'S DOOR
HOW THE ALLIANCE REMADE ITSELF FOR A NEW ERA
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3949-0232

How and why did NATO, a Cold War military alliance created in 1949 to counter Stalin's USSR, become the cornerstone of new security order for post-Cold War Europe? Why, instead of retreating from Europe after communism's collapse, did the U.S. launch the greatest expansion of the American commitment to the old continent in decades? Written by a high-level insider, Opening NATO's Door provides a definitive account of the ideas, politics, and diplomacy that went into the historic decision to expand NATO to Central and Eastern Europe.

(P/B) POLITICAL USES OF UTOPIA
NEW MARXIST, ANARCHIST, AND RADICAL DEMOCRATIC PERSPECTIVES
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3949-0185

Utopia has long been banished from political theory, framed as an impossible - and possibly dangerous - political ideal, a flawed social blueprint, or a thought experiment without any practical import. Even the "realistic utopias" of liberal theory strike many as wishful thinking. Can politics think utopia otherwise? Can utopian thinking contribute to the renewal of politics? In Political Uses of Utopia, an international cast of leading and emerging theorists agree that the uses of utopia for politics are multiple and nuanced and lie somew...

(P/B) ALLIES OF CONVENIENCE
A THEORY OF BARGAINING IN U.S. FOREIGN POLICY
Κωδ. Πολιτείας: 3949-0231

Since its founding, the United States has allied with unsavory dictatorships to thwart even more urgent security threats. How well has the United States managed such alliances, and what have been their consequences for its national security? In this book, Evan N. Resnick examines the negotiating tables between the United States and its allies of convenience since World War II and sets forth a novel theory of alliance bargaining. Resnick's neoclassical realist theory explains why U.S. leaders negotiate less effectively with unfriendly autoc...
