The Watchdog That Didn’t Bark The Financial Crisis and the Disappearance of Investigative Journalism Dean Starkman

How mainstream business news failed its

readers and what it means for the future of the profession.

In this sweeping, incisive study, Dean Starkman exposes the critical shortcomings that softened coverage during the mortgage era and the years leading up to the financial collapse of 2008. Dividing journalism into two competing approaches—access reporting and accountability reporting—he connects the financial collapse to what happens when the former overwhelms the latter and reporters lose sight of their public role. Starkman travels back to the early twentieth century “The Watchdog That Didn’t Bark, and juxtaposes the work of reporters against other given its in-depth analysis across the forms of journalism, particularly muckraking. These landscape and Dean Starkman’s keen two genres merged when mainstream American understanding of the business of news organizations institutionalized muckraking in journalism, will stand as a potentially the 1960s and created a powerful watchdog for the enduring case study of what went public interest. For many reasons, access journalism wrong and why.” came to dominate business reporting in the 1990s, a process Starkman calls “CNBCization,” and rather —Alec Klein, Northwestern University, than examine risky, even frankly corrupt corporate director of The Medill Justice Project behavior, mainstream reporters focused instead on and award-winning investigative reporter profiling executives and informing investors. This formerly with the Washington Post is why mostly outside reporters picked up on the brewing mortgage crisis while insiders failed to connect the dots. Starkman concludes with a critique of digital-news ideology and corporate influence, which threatens to further undermine investigative reporting, and shows how financial coverage, and journalism as a whole, can reclaim its bite.

There is a high risk that someone will use, by accident or design, one or more of the 17,000 nuclear weapons in the world today.

6 | fall 2013 Worlds Without End The Many Lives of the Multiverse Mary-Jane Rubenstein

An exciting look at contemporary scientific cosmologies and their relationship to

philosophy and religion.

“Multiverse” cosmologies imagine our universe as just one of a vast number of others. While this idea has captivated philosophy, religion, and literature for millennia, it is now being considered as a scientific hypothesis—with different models emerging from cosmology, quantum mechanics, and string theory. Beginning with ancient Atomist and Stoic philosophies, Mary-Jane Rubenstein links contemporary models of the multiverse to their forerunners and explores their current emergence. One reason is the so-called fine-tuning of the universe: nature’s “This is a text that performs the constants are so delicately calibrated, it seems they ‘many-oneness’ of this multiverse have been set just right to allow life to emerge.

With gastronomy now divided between the golden arches of McDonalds and the prized stars of Michelin, we are no longer what we eat but also how. In this follow-up to her classic Dining Out: A Sociology of Modern Manners, Joanne Finkelstein takes a fragment of social life—dining out in restaurants—and uses it to examine the nature of modern manners and social relations.

16 | fall 2013 Factory of Strategy Thirty-Three Lessons on Lenin Antonio Negri

Translated by Arianna Bove

A renewed engagement with Lenin’s

revolutionary politics and a persuasive case

for his contemporary relevance.

Factory of Strategy is the last of Antonio Negri’s major political works to be translated into English. Rigorous and accessible, it is both a systematic inquiry into the development of Lenin’s thought and an encapsulation of a critical shift in Negri’s theoretical trajectory. Lenin is the only prominent politician of the modern era to seriously question the “withering away” and “extinction” of the state, and like Marx, he “A bracingly original and systematic recognized the link between capitalism and modern inquiry into the development of sovereignty and the need to destroy capitalism and reconfigure the state. Negri refrains from portraying the Russian revolutionary’s political Lenin as a ferocious dictator enforcing the poor’s thought, bearing comparison with reappropriation of wealth, nor does he depict him Lukács’s earlier Lenin. It doubles as as a mere military tool of a vanguard opposed a unique record of a crucial moment to the ancien régime. Negri instead champions in Antonio Negri’s trajectory as a Leninism’s ability to adapt to different working-class political philosopher and activist, compositions in Russia, China, Latin America, and when questions of strategy and elsewhere. He argues that Lenin developed a new political figure in and beyond modernity and an insurrection were foremost in his effective organization capable of absorbing different mind.

A provocative, historically based argument that digital-era journalists need to aspire to much more than simply reporting the news.

For a century and a half, journalists made a good business out of selling the latest news or selling ads next to that news. Now that news pours out of the Internet and our mobile devices—fast, abundant, and mostly free—that era is ending.

Academic philosophy may have lost its audience, but the traditional subjects of philosophy—love, death, justice, knowledge, and faith—remain as compelling as ever. To reach a new generation, Paul W.

30 | fall 2013 Deaths in Venice The Cases of Gustav von Aschenbach Philip Kitcher

diving into the philosophical depths of

Thomas Mann’s beloved novella, as imagined in words, music, and film.

Published in 1913, Thomas Mann’s Death in Venice is one of the most widely read novellas in any language. In the 1970s, Benjamin Britten adapted it into an opera, and Lucchino Visconti turned it into a successful film. Reading these works from a philosophical perspective, Philip Kitcher connects the predicament of the novella’s central character to Western thought’s most compelling questions. In Mann’s story, the author Gustav von Aschenbach becomes captivated by an adolescent boy, first seen on the lido in Venice, the eventual site of “Philip Kitcher’s book is a profession Aschenbach’s own death. Mann works through cen- of love: for Thomas Mann’s novella, tral concerns about how to live, explored with equal for Mahler’s music, and, above intensity by his German predecessors, Schopenhauer all, for the commitment to ideas and Nietzsche.

A practical theory of justice informed by

Theories of justice often fixate on purely normative, abstract principles unrelated to real-world applications. The philosopher and theorist Axel Honneth addresses this disconnect, constructing a theory of justice derived from the normative claims of Western liberal-democratic societies and anchored in the law and institutionally established practices that possess moral legitimacy. Termed a “democratic ethical life,” Honneth’s paradigm draws on the spirit of Hegel’s Philosophy of Right and his own theory of recognition, dem- “This book represents a major onstrating how concrete social spheres generate the statement on the distinctive principles of individual freedom and a standard for perspective of a pivotal figure what is just.

Reconfiguring cosmopolitanism to adapt to the moral and political challenges of globalization.

While supporting the cosmopolitan pursuit of a world that respects all rights and interests, James D. Ingram believes political theorists have, in their approach to this project, compromised its egalitarian and emancipatory principles. Focusing on recent debates without losing sight of cosmopolitanism’s ancient and Enlightenment roots, Ingram confronts the philosophical difficulties of defending universal ideals and the implications for ethics and political theory. “A brilliant work of normative political In morality as in politics, theorists have generally philosophy, Radical Cosmopolitics focused first on discovering universal values and is at once relentless and flawless second on their implementation.

Only by inhabiting Dao (the Way of Nature) and dwelling in its unity can humankind achieve true happiness and freedom, in both life and death. This is Daoist philosophy’s central tenet, espoused by the person—or group of people—known as Zhuangzi (369?-286? B.C.E.) in a text by the same name. To be free, individuals must discard rigid distinctions between good and bad, right and wrong, and follow a course of action not motivated by gain or striving.

He follows its influence on research, speeches, political strategy, and government policy, preventing the West from responding effectively to the rise of Islamic power, the emergence of religious violence, and the growing tension between established social values and multicultural rights among Muslim immigrants. “ Lyons has made a very significant

Foreword by Dick Howard

How do “people” (or “plebs”) excluded from political institutions achieve political agency? Revisiting a series of marginal events, Martin Breaugh identifies fleeting yet decisive instances of emancipation in which the people took it upon themselves to become political subjects. Emerging during the Roman plebs’s first secession in 494 B.C.E., the “plebeian” experience consists of an “underground” or unex- plored configuration of political strategies to obtain political freedom, a political practice that rejects “A rich, discontinuous history of domination and, by means of concerted action, plebeian uprisings from the founding establishes an alternative form of power. of republican Rome to the present.

Stefan Jonsson p hy

Between 1918 and 1933, the masses became a decisive preoccupation of European culture, fueling modernist movements in art, literature, architecture, theater, and cinema, as well as the rise of communism, fascism, and experiments in radical democracy. Spanning aesthetics, cultural studies, intellectual history, and political theory, this volume unpacks the significance of the shadow agent known as “the mass” during a critical period in European history. It follows its evolution into the preferred conceptual tool for social scientists, the ideal slogan for politicians, and the chosen image for artists and writers trying to capture a society in flux and a people in upheaval. “In his strikingly choreographed and This volume is the second installment in Stefan beautifully written study, Stefan Jonsson’s epic study of the crowd and the mass in Jonsson traverses an extensive modern Europe, building on his work in A Brief archive, delving into novels and History of the Masses, which focused on monumental artworks, philosophy, historiography, artworks produced in 1789, 1889, and 1989. and psychoanalysis.

Former U.S. ambassador Jonathan Addleton pro- U vides a pioneering firsthand look at the remarkable niver growth of civil society and diplomatic ties between two countries separated by vast distances yet sharing a growing list of strategic interests and values. s ity Pre While maintaining positive ties with Russia and China, its powerful neighbors and still- dominant trading partners, Mongolia has sought “third neighbors” to help provide balance, including ss Canada, Japan, Korea, European nations, and the United States. For its part, the United States has supported Mongolia as an emerging democracy while fostering development and commercial relations. People-to-people ties have significantly expanded in recent years, as has a security partnership that supports Mongolia’s emergence as a provider of military peacekeepers under the U.N. flag in Sierra Leone, Chad, Kosovo, Darfur, South Sudan, and elsewhere. While focusing on diplomatic relations over the last quarter century, Addleton also briefly describes American encounters with Mongolia over the past 150 years. More recently, Mongolia has emerged as a magnet for foreign investment, making it one of the world’s fastest growing economies.

Jonathan Addleton served in Mongolia as USAID mission director (2001–2004) and then as U.S. ambassador (2009–2012). His previous assignments included development counselor at the U.S. Mission to the European Union in Brussels; USAID mission director in Pakistan and Cambodia; and USAID program officer in Jordan, Kazakhstan, South Africa, and Yemen. He is the author of Undermining the Center: The Gulf Migration and Pakistan and Some Far and Distant Place. In 2012, he was awarded the Polar Star, Mongolia’s highest civilian honor conferred on foreign citizens, for his role in strengthening ties between the United States and Mongolia.

Courts, Politics, and Society After 1997 ong Lo Pui Yin U

China has granted Hong Kong a high degree of niver autonomy through the Basic Law under the policy of “one country, two systems.” Hong Kong’s legal

system under the Basic Law is based on the com- s mon law and is administered by independent courts. ity Pre By interpreting the Basic Law, Hong Kong’s courts have reviewed legislation and executive decisions and have achieved a “second founding” of the Basic Law as an enforceable constitution. This ss book is the first comprehensive account of how the Hong Kong courts gained this vital power of judicial review. Through an analysis of important court cases since 1997, the book also examines how the Hong Kong courts maintain their relationships with the executive and legislature and with China’s central authorities, which have been skeptical of these achievements. Hong Kong’s unique status as a common-law jurisdiction within socialist China poses risks of integration; this book concludes that the best choice lies in maintaining and developing a cosmopolitan judicial outlook. The Judicial Construction of Hong Kong’s Basic Law is essential reading for legal practitioners in Hong Kong and scholars of constitutional and comparative law.

Lo Pui Yin is a barrister specializing in constitutional and human rights law. He is the author of several books and articles on law in Hong Kong.

The text is a highly readable curatorial essay that leads readers to a better understanding of the topic and the meaning behind Wolf ’s photographs of Earth God shrines in urban Hong Kong. The topic of this book is timely, given the vulnerability of traditional beliefs and practices in an increasingly urbanized Hong Kong. It is hoped that Small God, Big City will provoke deeper thoughts on who we are and what we believe in this modern world.

Michael Wolf was born in 1954 in Munich, Germany. He grew up in the United States, Europe, and Canada and studied at the University of California, Berkeley, and at the Folkwang School in Essen, Germany. In 1995, he moved to Hong Kong, where he studied Chinese cultural identity and complex urban architectural structure. He has published seven photobooks on Asia, including Sitting in China, Chinese Propaganda Posters, Hong Kong Front Door Back Door, Hong Kong Inside Outside, Tokyo Compression, and Hong Kong Corner Houses.

94 | fall 2013 H A Defiant Brush ong Su Renshan and the Politics of Painting in Early Nineteenth Century Guangdong K ong Yeewan Koon

As the Opium War unfolded in Guangdong U niver Province, the painter Su Renshan (1814–c.1850) exploded onto the art scene with a bold, paradigm- turning new voice. Yeewan Koon’s new book, s

A Defiant Brush, takes a fresh look at this under- ity Pre appreciated artist in the context of a nascent Chinese modernism. In 1839, Guangzhou had shifted from a cosmopolitan trading center with a diverse art world into a ss place of violence. During the following decade, one voice of discontent and defiance rang out above all others: Su Renshan. His provocative, uncompromis- ing, and sometimes ugly paintings berate Confucius for his hypocrisy. He turns his brush trace into graphic lines that mimic the printed page, and he depicts women as alternative exemplars of a moral intelligentsia. It is believed that his outspokenness prompted his father to place him in prison for filial impiety, where he probably painted his last artwork. During this turbulent period of incipient modernity, close readings of Su Renshan’s paintings within the rich contextual history of art in Guangdong Province reveal how the trauma of war prompted a reevaluation of social and political values, and indeed the moral responsibility of a scholar-artist.

Yeewan Koon teaches in the Fine Arts Department at the University of Hong Kong. She is also an art critic and has written for local cultural magazines, including Muse and D.C. Photography.

Minna Törmä K ong

Finnish Swedish art historian Osvald Sirén (1879–1966) was one of the pioneers of Chinese art U niver scholarship in the West. This biography focuses on his four major voyages to East Asia: 1918, 1921–1923, 1929–1930, and 1935. This was a pivotal period in s

Chinese archaeology, art studies, and the formation ity Pre of Western collections of Chinese art. Sirén gained international renown as a scholar of Italian art, particularly with his books on Leonardo da Vinci and Giotto. Yet when he was almost forty years old, ss he became captivated by Chinese art (paintings of Lohans in the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston) to such an extent that he decided to start his career anew—in a way. He has left his mark in several fields in Chinese art study: architecture, sculpture, painting, and garden art. This study charts Sirén’s itineraries during his travels in Japan, Korea, and China. It introduces the various people in those countries as well as in Europe and North America who defined the field in its early stages and were influential as collectors and dealers. Since Sirén was a theosophist, the book also explores the impact of theosophical ideas in his work.

K Shane McCausland and Yin Hwang, ong Editors

U These essays address a diverse range of issues in niver China’s narrative art and visual culture from the Ming dynasty (1368–1644) to the present. These studies attend to the complex ways in which images s ity Pre circulate in pictorial media and across the boundaries between “high art” and popular culture—images in paintings, prints, stone engravings, and posters, as well as in film and video art. In addition, the authors ss examine the role of ancient exemplary stories and textual narratives, as well as their reiteration in the visual arts in early-modern and modern social and political contexts. The volume is divided into three sections: representing paradigms, interpreting literary themes and narratives, and the medium and modernity. While the essays in each section deal with concerns in the field of China’s art history, an editors’ introduction serves to position the topic of narrative art and introduce definitions and genre issues that run throughout the book. As a whole, the volume invites reflection on the intrinsic nature of narratives and their pictorial lives and presents new research challenging established views and paradigms.

Shane McCausland is reader in the history of Chinese art at the Department of the History of Art and Archaeology, School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London.
