In Mimetic Theory
Doubles, Narcissists, Victims, and Philosophers: Truth and “After Truth” in Mimetic Theory Scott Cowdell Many factors contribute to today’s “after truth” situation. Regarding Brexit, for instance, when populist nationalistic myth trumped entrenched economic rationalism, one commentator points to non-serious Tory media tarts like Boris Johnson overshadowing more serious policy contributors from the political left.1 And, from this side of the ditch, Kurt Anderson addresses a cultural history of programmatic American self-delusion in his bestseller Fantasyland.2 He points to America’s early-modern origins in dreams of non- existent Eldorado and projects of religious extremism, to its subsequent tastes for hucksterism and fundamentalism, to its widespread preference for the pleasure principle over the reality principle and, notably, to the key contribution of today’s culturally relativistic left-wing intellectuals whom he considers to be “useful idiots”. All this adds up to what Anderson calls America’s “fantasy industrial complex”. And, wherever you look, social media is supplanting traditional curated media, privatizing the commons and edging out the truth. It creates disconnected echo chambers of invincible ignorance rather than the global unity that Mark Zuckerberg used to say he believed in. The English political theologian Adrian Pabst describes the ideal politician in this brave new world as ideas-free, preferring targeted messaging based on computer algorithms over debate.3 Part of the problem is surely just how human beings are. The Nobel Prize-winning Israeli experimental psychologist, Daniel Kahneman, has shown that many real-life decisions are approached non-rationally. We are prone to biases and unreliable heuristics, we resist thinking carefully and taking stock, and we are not good natural statisticians when assessing financial risks. -

View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Institutional Research Information System University of Turin JOSEPH DE MAISTRE AND ITALY Marco Ravera It is very likely that Joseph de Maistre would not have been very much interested in the subject of the reception of his own thought in Italy.1 He did not consider himself Italian—and, in spite of his being Francophone, he did not consider himself French either—but only and exclusively Savoyard (or rather, in the last phase of his life, Savoyard and European at the same time, but certainly not Italian). His eyes and his attention were always drawn to France; and the early impulses for the national unity of Italy that happened a few years aft er the Restoration—a legacy of that Napoleonic epos which he abhorred so much—left him perplexed and astonished, rather than disturbed and troubled. It is true that, given that he died at the end of February 1821, he could not witness (or, we might say, he was spared the sight of) the early risings for unity. However, his opinion in this respect is con- densed, through refl ections enriched by that sarcastic irony which dis- tinguishes several of his writings, in some famous claims included in the letter to the marquis d’Azeglio2 of 21 February 1821—that is, three days before his death—where, with ill-concealed scepticism, he won- ders whether and to what extent one can call himself ‘Italian’. Aft er hav- ing thanked his correspondent for having sent to him a basketful of fruit, the nearly expiring lion still shows his claws and, taking his cue from some considerations on Piedmont and Italy made by d’Azeglio in the letter that accompanied the gift , added long refl ections on this sub- ject. -

Bishop Gerald M. Barbarito addressed the young wom- an with three questions: “Are you resolved to persevere to the end of your days in the holy state of virginity and in the service of God and his Church? Are you resolved to follow Christ in the spirit of the Gospel that your whole life may be a faithful witness to God’s love and a convincing sign of the kingdom of heaven? Are you resolved to accept solemn con- secration as a bride of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God?” To these questions Sahu humbly, yet with conviction, answered a resounding, “I am.” With these words, Sahu became the first con- FYI secrate virgin from • To view Simi Sahu’s Rite of the St. Thomas Syro Consecration to a Life of Virginity for Malabar Diocese of Women Living in the World from Feb.

Policing Aboriginal Protests and Confrontations: Some Policy Recommendations Abstract This paper discusses the role of police forces in Aboriginal protests and confrontations. It takes as a case study the Report of the Ipperwash Inquiry, which was released on May 31, 2007. In 1995 Dudley George, a member of the Stoney Point First Nation, was shot by an Ontario Provincial Police officer during a protest at Ipperwash Provincial Park. Five recommendations are proposed in this paper to reduce the inherent tensions in such protests, focusing on methods of mediation and conflict resolution. In particular, it is proposed that during such protests a more extensive use be made of Aboriginal persons with training and skills in mediation and negotiations in order to improve communication between police and First Nations protesters. -

Sacrifice, Self-Formation and Self-Overcoming in Nietzsche Venessa Ercole
parrhesia 28 · 2017 · 156-175 sacrifice, self-formation and self-overcoming in nietzsche venessa ercole Nietzsche’s emphasis on self-overcoming and self-mastery in the higher type and the figure of the overman are usually associated with aristocracy, rank and the sacrifice of others in the pursuit of personal excellence. Indeed, Nietzsche’s dis- cussion of the “lower types,” “slave morality” and “master morality” lends itself to an elitist misreading. However, Nietzsche’s opposition to democracy and equality stems from his endorsement of differentiation and particularly his concern with life-affirmation and life-denial. That is to say, Nietzsche’s seeming regard for the “higher type” comes from its status, for Nietzsche, as more life-affirming than the herd. However, contrary to popular readings, Nietzsche’s aim is not for a world of noble masters who obtain their rank at the expense of the lower types. Ulti- mately, as a close reading of Thus Spoke Zarathustra reveals, even the higher type must be sacrificed in pursuit of Nietzsche’s ultimate goal, of saying yes to life. The question which then arises is this: what role does self-sacrifice play in Nietzsche’s thoughts on the self in formation—in becoming what one is? Sacrifice has not yet been satisfactorily discussed in the expansive commentary on Nietzsche’s philosophy. The majority of what has been said on Nietzsche’s views of sacrifice paint Nietzsche in an elitist light. It is no wonder, given Ni- etzsche’s aphoristic style, that he has been interpreted in such a way. However, these readings fail to see how Nietzsche’s views of sacrifice are intrinsically tied to his notion of self-overcoming, forming an important component of his vision of the Dionysian man.
