  • Ideas Políticas En American Gangster
    ATLANTIS Journal of the Spanish Association of Anglo-American Studies 42.1 (June 2020): 57-75 e-issn 1989-6840 DOI: http://doi.org/10.28914/Atlantis-2020-42.1.04 © The Author(s) Content is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution NonCommercial ShareAlike 4.0 International Licence Of Godfathers and Markets: The Politics of (the) American Gangster Fabián Orán Llarena Universidad de La Laguna [email protected] This article closely examines the filmAmerican Gangster (2007) as a reinterpretation of the gangster film in light of neoliberalism. Deploying a critical framework underpinned by cultural and film genre studies, I argue the film revisits key tropes and themes of the gangster film by drawing substantially on neoliberal ideology and by addressing certain worldviews and phenomena concerning capitalist accumulation, such as Keynesianism, libertarianism and the relation between the state and private spheres. A wealth of scholarly literature has accrued that probes neoliberal capitalism as the hegemonic economic and political system of our time. However, film studies has yet to comprehensively take up the study of neoliberalism. Additionally, whether there are genre specificities in the way neoliberalism has been translated into film is a significantly underexplored area of research. American Gangster constitutes a particularly appropriate film to cohesively and unitarily tackle all those questions. Keywords: gangster film; film studies; entrepreneur; neoliberalism; capitalism . De padrinos y mercados: ideas políticas en American Gangster Este artículo analiza en profundidad la película American Gangster (2007) como reinterpretación del cine de gánsteres en clave neoliberal. Desarrollando una metodología basada en estudios culturales y de género cinematográfico, sostengo que la película revisita temas e imágenes troncales del cine de gánsteres bajo la influencia de la ideología neoliberal y abordando ciertas visiones y fenómenos vinculados a la acumulación capitalista, como el Keynesianismo, el libertarismo o la relación entre las esferas estatal y privada.

  • Bergrin 2255 Brief FILEDWITHCOURT
    PRELIMINARY STATEMENT The breadth and magnitude of the Constitutional errors in the trial of United States v. Paul Bergrin, is extraordinary. This motion for post-conviction relief will clearly and unequivocally establish that Bergrin never received a "fair trial" based upon deliberate, knowing and intentional conduct by the government and the prosecution sought victory at any and all costs. Each and every point delineated in this petition invokes violations of either the Fifth, Sixth, Eighth, or Fourteenth Amendments, of the United States Constitution and makes it ripe and permissible in this forum. Most importantly, the violations harmed and prejudiced the Petitioner's constitutional rights and detrimentally impacted his verdict. Consequently, under no circumstances could they be considered "harmless errors." Brecht v. Abrahamson, 507 U.S. 619, 623, 113 S. Ct. 1710, 1714, 123 L. Ed. 2d 353, 363 (1993). Additionally, the deliberate and serious errors that follow this statement, combined with the pattern of prosecutorial and judicial misconduct, will warrant reversal of Petitioner's convictions. Kotteakos v. United States, 328 U.S. 750, 66 S. Ct. 1239, 90 L. Ed. 1557 (1946). Brecht, id., at 638, n. 9. Petitioner will conclusively prove that a Fundamental Miscarriage of Justice occurred in this case and this Honorable 1 Court is being implored to reverse the convictions and halt this travesty of justice. Most importantly, Petitioner submits that each ground- point contains the factual and legal evidence clearly delineating violations of the constitutional right to due process of law, as espoused in Amendment's Five, Six, Eight and Fourteen of the United States Constitution; collectively and as viewed in their totality they overwhelmingly mandate complete reversal of Petitioner's convictions.
