Abstract:
This essay examines Ephesians in light of current research in ethnic studies. The methodological advance of such an approach is twofold: first, it moves the exegesis of the domestic codes to the wider frame of the letter; and, second, it goes beyond the limited hermeneutical framework of the ‘origins’ of the reconciliation language to the more productive examination of its function in the text. The concept of ‘one new humanity’ provides evidence for the author's ethnic reasoning, which participated in ancient cultural affirmations of the essential fluidity and changeability of all ethnicity.

Abstract:
The major aim of present study has to explore gender fluidity in Jeet Thayil’s Narcopolis. The gender fluidity is postmodern term that shows the psychological, physical, and physiological changes in an individual with the passage of time. It challenges the traditional binary gender system that shows the mental and physical transformations in the individual in identity, desire, and selfperception. Set in the late 1970s Bombay, the novel Narcopolis represents the city of Mumbai as an urban landscape dominated by crime, drug trade, and the sex industry. The novel unfolds dark sides of the city of

Abstract:
This paper explores the ethical dilemmas within the capitalist framework depicted in Aravind Adiga’s novels, focusing on The White Tiger, Last Man in Tower, and Selection Day. It critically examines the tension between morality and materialism, analyzing how Adiga’s protagonists navigate corrupt socio-economic structures to achieve success. By drawing on neoliberal critiques, the research highlights the commodification of ethics in modern India and how financial incentives often override traditional moral considerations. Employing a multidisciplinary approach, the study integrates literary cri

Abstract:
Bertolt Brecht&rsquo;s <em>The Good Person of Szechwan</em> critiques the hegemony of universal moral ideals, particularly the practicality of God&rsquo;s Ten Commandments in a corrupt and self-serving world. The binary opposition between Shen Te and her alter ego Shui Ta symbolises the clash between idealism and pragmatism. It exposes the limitations of absolute morality in complex societal structures. Shen Te&rsquo;s kindness and adherence to moral commandments reflect the rigidity of hegemonic ideologies, yet, her survival necessitates the emergence of Shui Ta, embodying the hybridity requi

Abstract:
Censorship decisions on cinematic works in Egypt have been characterized by their inconsistency due to the intentional lack of definition of what would constitute a threat to politics, religion and morality. Such fluidity has forced filmmakers to practise self-censorship and deterred them from tackling Coptic problems for fear of igniting sectarianism, as censorship would claim. This article shows the role of public opinion during the period of political instability and aspiration for freedom after the 25 January 2011 Egyptian Revolution in facilitating the approval of the controversial script

Abstract:
The author draws a parallel between social and legal studies. Using the laws of logic and achievements of thinkers of XIX — XX centuries, the author analyzes the complementarity of law and social, when social creates its jurisdiction, and the law provides the structure of social. The integration of legal pluralism into social theory is considered, the atrophy of social theory is shown, as well as the fluidity of thinking systems and theories of society in the post-modern era, according to research by leading theorists.

Purpose This paper aims to take the “toxic masculinity” (TM) trope as a starting point to examine recent cultural shifts in common assumptions about gender, morality and relations between the sexes. TM is a transculturally widespread archetype or moral trope about the kind of man one should not be.

Abstract:
AbstractUpon close examination of Rousseau's accounts of human development, we find that Rousseau presents us with paradoxical chronologies in which the experience of supposed immediacy from which humans are said to originate always seems to be informed by, and even require, previous mediation. More specifically, reflection, comparison, and imagination are thought to exist only after the onset of perfectibility, but these mediating capacities are always already present in pity and self-love, as well as for the “independent” savage, calling into question the possibility that any human sentiment

Abstract:
Rather than a definition or redefinition of masculinity, or masculinities, this article asks what can masculinities do? To explore this question, I map the possibilities that Deleuze and Guattari’s philosophy of immanence offer masculinities theory. Through a theoretical encounter with Deleuze, Guattari, Spinoza, and Gatens, I seek to open up an alternative conceptualization of masculinities that moves away from morality—transcendent judgments of good or bad—and toward an ethics that privileges our capacities for affecting and being affected.

This chapter examines men's reactions to prostitution legislation. Different contours of masculinities informed by location and by political and economic power influenced the degree of condemnation of or support for anti-prostitution laws. Men's reactions also differed depending on the age of prostitutes. A question that seemed relevant for this discussion of men's sexual politics is what it might take for moralists to become defenders of prostitutes' rights. The change of identity from being a moralist to an advocate for prostitutes' rights underscores the fluidity of debates about prostituti

RoseThere is something amiss. On that much queer theory and psy-choanalysis agree. For both of these ways of engaging with the world, the dominant, normative, regulations of sexual life are a lie. Freud (1908) spoke of the “injustice” of expecting one form of sexual behavior from us all. “It is one of the obvious social injustices [eine der offenkundigen sozialen Ungerechtigkeiten],” he wrote in his essay “‘Civilised’ Sexual Morality and Mod-ern Nervous Illness,” “that the standard of civilisation should demand from everyone the same conduct of sexual life” (192).

It critically engages with the existing literature on Muslim women that adopts limited tropes, overlooking the intricate ways in which Muslim women’s desire for agentive, consumerist, and entrepreneurial lifestyles complicates notions of modernity an

The chapter explains how new, incoming regulation contributes to disarticulating supply chains and creating buyer-end monopolies.

Abstract:
Andrew Schopp argues that the representation of morality and history in Inglorious Basterds (2009), Django Unchained (2012) and The Hateful Eight (2015) is a particularly complicated and distinctly post-modern one, inherently connected to the American vision of the world after 9/11. His analysis of Tarantino's texts from the perspective of justice, civilisation and revenge make an invaluable contribution to existing commentaries on Tarantino's work. He also considers their status as allohistorical narratives (commonly referred to as alternative history) which encompasses an awareness of the fa
