Abstract:

Ethics and morality are the subject of study of representatives of all humanities. Why are they still being studied? What are the features of modern ethics? The author answers these and many other questions about what the modern complex world of values, norms and life guidelines looks like. The monograph is devoted to the analysis of the concept of "discursive ethics", which is becoming in demand due to the current trends of social change — the technologization of interactions, the increase in the intensity of communication flows, the change of scientific and social paradigms of thinking

Abstract:

Chapter Two demonstrates how commercials employ genre-specific codes and conventions to operate as discursive assemblages. The author adopts Grossberg’s concept of cultural formations as a model for analyzing dance in advertising. Through close readings of several commercials created for US companies produced between 1948 and 2012, the chapter offers an historicized reading of the strategic intersections between dance, television, film, and advertising within commercials to produce a form of marketing that simultaneously reinforces and destabilizes disciplinary boundaries.

Abstract:

“Literature” is a discursive field that is bounded by other discursive fields that are “not literature.” Reflection on that field as such can be traced to the early second century ce under the category wen. Wen was a much older and broader category that characterized certain qualities in a text, a person, or even the condition of an age. Critical reflection on wen was sustained for about four centuries, but the elusiveness of the term blurred the bibliographical category.

Abstract:

Youth can play a central role for understanding political developments during crises. The introductory chapter suggests combining the discursive and the physical mobilization of youth to understand its relevance in moments of crisis. Conceptual clarification is provided on the book’s key terms: ‘crisis’ as a category of experience which conveys contingency and possibilities; ‘youth’ as a political and cultural symbol; and ‘generation’ as combining experiences and expectations. The comparative historical frame starts from the contemporary Russian case and gradually adds variation in a controlle

Discursive psychologists question the taken-for-granted status of the categories that are used to classify and investigate human experience (Potter & Edwards, 1996). Instead of assuming the “reality” of sex/gender and conducting empirical investigations into the qualities that characterize “each” of the sexes, discursive psychologists investigate how the concepts of “sex” and “gender” are constructed through their use in both scientific and everyday contexts. For discursive psychologists, there are no “pregiven” meanings attached to the categories of sex/gender. What these categories mean,

Concepts like socialism, capitalism, and modernity are not static entities. As discursive models, they rely on other historically determined discourses that accompany them. Modernity and its related concept of modernism require a counterpart against which to be defined. For decades, socialism and socialist realist artistic productions that

This book explores the relations among blackness, antiblackness, and Black people within the discourse of the blackness of black. This critical discourse developed during the last two decades as scholars explored what Saidiya Hartman describes as the afterlife of slavery. Hartman’s concept, which argues for a troubling continuity between the status of enslaved and emancipated Black people, is the pivot between discursive tributaries and trajectories. Tributaries of the discourse of the blackness of black comprise five foundational concepts: Frantz Fanon’s “phobogenic blackness,” Orlando Patter

Their common interest has shifted from any so-called ‘human nature’ to the multitude of cultural, topographical, technical, historical, social, discursive, and media formats with which human existences are entangled.

This chapter introduces the two core theoretical concepts of this study: expressivity and transformation. These two topics are broached through an initial examination of two highly dissimilar cinematic style topics: whole-tone harmony and stepwise modulations. The stylistic and aesthetic continuity with Romantic Era practices, especially from Wagner, is emphasized. A working model of tonal expressivity is constructed, in which intrinsic and extrinsic musical factors combine to form combinatorial meaning. With these concepts in hand, the notion of transformation—the cornerstone of neo-Riemannia

Abstract:

The chapter examines the recent approach to ideology as an actual and ubiquitous combination of decontested political concepts, whose micro-morphological arrangements are the key to the specific meaning each ideological family contains. Shifting proximities and relative weights accorded to those concepts produce multiple ideological variants. Ideologies are pivotal to the discipline of political theory, discernible both in professional and vernacular thinking, and serve as discursive competitions over the control of public political language.

By viewing Negritude as an “insurgent idea” (to invoke this book’s intentionally incendiary subtitle), as opposed to merely a form of poetics and aesthetics, The Negritude Movement explores Negritude as a “traveling theory” (à la Edward Said’s concept) that consistently crisscrossed the Atlantic Ocean in the twentieth century: from Har

This chapter tries to show what practical difference it makes if one adopts the approach developed in the foregoing chapters. It focuses on the work that political theory and political theorists might do in support of an effective real-world response to injustice. Much of the conflict around injustice is ideological—it arises from conflicting values, ideas, and interpretations. When an ideology becomes dominant or hegemonic, its key concepts become decontested, making injustice seem natural or normal. To contest this requires a form of counterhegemonic politics, politics designed to challenge

Abstract:

This article addresses a particularly troubling form of property: slavery in fifteenth-century Dubrovnik. The practice of slavery depended upon law: its articulation lay at the intersection of the Roman law of the ius commune, canon law, local customary and statute law, and natural law. The texture of these different legalistic frameworks provided ways of articulating the problems, discursive and ethical, of treating people as property. The essay explores these tensions by looking at slave contracts, and practices of manumission: slaves could purchase their freedom with their own property (pec

Abstract:

In this volume, ownership is defined as the simple fact of being able to describe something as ‘mine’ or ‘yours’, and property is distinguished as the discursive field which allows the articulation of attendant rights, relationships and obligations. Property is often articulated through legalism as way of thinking which appeals to rules and to generalising concepts as a way of understanding, responding to, and managing the world around one. An Aristotelian perspective suggests that ownership is the natural state of things and a prerequisite of a true sense of self. An alternative perspective f

Abstract:

This essay reviews much of the recent scholarship on the concept of agency, delineating its relevance for theorizing an inclusive and progressive ecological politics. Mindful of the intimacy between questions of agency and ontology, the essay urges the advantages of conceptualizing agency as collective, embodied, distributed, and emergent within discursive-material assemblages. In contrast to more traditional approaches that treat agency as a singularly human characteristic, this essay looks to identify agential capacity in both humans and non-humans and the interactions among them. It is argu

Abstract:

This chapter examines discursive developments in twentieth-century European thought with respect to the question of the reality, metaphoricity, and exemplarity of Jewish displacement. Throughout the centuries, the Jews have been the epitome of the displaced, wandering, and exposed stranger, the rootless intruders, or an example embodying the forfeiting of fixity, dominance, and ownership associated with territorial emplacement. In modernity, Jewish exile, beyond being a theological, historical, and political issue, became a discursive theme, a literary motif, and a loaded philosophical concept
