How should Europe deal with post-truth populism, nationalism and Twitter democracy? And can culture be one of the keys to restoring Europe’s lost confidence and breathing new life into European values? It is a historical irony that, just as we find ourselves in a time of existential crisis, the European Union has been working on new strategic proposals for international cultural relations. CULTURE REPORT • Will they provide urgently needed answers to the problems threatening the Union’s cohesion? What chance does the proposed concerted approach have in the face of growing nation alist tendencies? These are just some of the questions to which Slavoj Žižek, Timothy Garton Ash, Navid Kermani, Heribert Prantl, Claus Leggewie and other contributors to this volume seek answers.

And so have the para- meters for Europe’s external relations. It is time to reconsider the continent’s role in the world. How can it respond to isolationism and populism, but at the same time to wars in Syria and the Ukraine, the refugee crisis and climate change? What answers can Europe find to these challenges, while still defending its own democratic structures and the core values of human rights, multilateralism and international solidarity? How is it possible to bridge the divide within European societies and prevent the rise of populist movements and nationalism, xenophobia and extremism? What role can culture play in finding solutions to these problems? 30 contributors from 25 different countries seek answers to these and other questions.

Zippel travelled around Europe capturing people as they went about their daily lives, unfurling Europe from its easternmost edges. The people appear strangely disconnected, fragile, turned in upon themselves. The scenery is rather sad, seldom glamorous. As we look at the photos, we ask ourselves “What’s worse, their mood or their situation?” They seem to be far removed from the vibrant continent that is Europe. 3 Foreword In search of lost meaning of societies we are living in, and who our ene- mies are.’ Political scientist Claus Leggewie sees European culture as being in resistance mode, he European Union is suffering a se- and Slovenian philosopher Slavoy Žižek gets vere crisis of confidence.

    CULTURE REPORT EUNIC YEARBOOK 2011 CULTURE REPORT EUNIC YEARBOOK 2011 Cultural relations are the glue that holds alliances together. The geopolitics of the 21st century mean we need to see a revival of cultural diplomacy. China and India are already expanding their external cultural policies. Despite Europe‘s huge cultural diversity, the EU has still not developed an adequate cultural strategy for its foreign policy. The establishment of the European External Action Service (EEAS) provides an opportunity to tighten up and co-ordinate the EU‘s existing cultural foreign policy. In this edition of the Culture Report, 30 authors from 20 different countries examine what this all means.

The absolute non-seriousness that characterized grotesque realism became a successful and relatively safe way to talk about the absurdities and the failures of the communist system. This modality, however, was not exclusive to the communist era but stretched back to the Austro-Hungarian era and forward into the Postcommunist times.

Increased project budget Phase 1 of the Preparatory Action (2019-2021) included a project budget of EUR 350,000, which could fund ten ideas and five pilot projects only. The new Call for Ideas has a budget of EUR 500,000 and aims to support around ten pilot projects. Number of projects more flexible Phase 1 of the Preparatory Action set out from the start to support ten ideas and five pilot projects. In the new Call, the selection will be made with more flexibility and be based on the amounts requested by the best ideas and projects. Mobility scheme The new Call for Ideas includes a dedicated budget for a new Mobility Scheme. The Call will be open to small mobility grants for prospective project partners, especially those with a focus on transnational and transregional projects, before submitting their idea. Mobility grants will be open to EUNIC members. More local partners required This Call has raised the minimum of key local cultural partners to three. Partners can be civil society organisations as well as public bodies. Exception possible when there are no 3 EUNIC members A minimum of three EUNIC members is still required with one of them administering the application. However, exceptions can be made in countries with limited EUNIC capacity and presence. In such cases it must be made clear why the threshold of 3 EUNIC members is impossible to achieve. Selection based on scores In the previous Call for Ideas, only the selection in the second step of the Call was made based on maximum scores per criterion.

  • New Directions in Cultural Diplomacy
    This is an advance copy of an essay to be published in 2010 by Real Instituto Elcano, Madrid, in a collection entitled “Cultura y Proyección Exterior: Nuevos Valores y Estrategias de Acción”. It is not to be reproduced or circulated without the approval of the author. New Directions Steve Green1 William Gibson’s frequently quoted statement “the future is already here; it’s just not evenly distributed”, applies to cultural diplomacy. The new directions promise to usher in a transformation of cultural diplomacy. They will add new strands of activity, lead to a re-assessment of existing ways of operating and introduce new items to the cultural diplomacy toolkit. This essay surveys the new directions in global cultural diplomacy. A standard difficulty in surveys is the lack of an agreed terminology. Is the field to be referred to as “cultural diplomacy”, “cultural PR”, “public diplomacy”, “nation branding”? Different countries, different organizations, different authors use the terms almost interchangeably. This essay uses “cultural diplomacy” and returns to the terminology issue in its final section. It will be useful to start with a set of opening parameters in mind. Rod Fisher has a seven point list of the principal objectives of a country’s foreign cultural policy. They are: • to promote cultural diplomacy • to develop cultural relations • to support the export of a nation’s cultural products and creative industries • to underpin the development of beneficial new trading arrangements • to attract tourism and perhaps inward investment • to enhance programme aid in developing countries and • To create an informed and primarily favourable picture of a country to the “outside world”.2 1 Steve Green is Team Leader for the EUNIC presidency.

  • Peter Sloterdijk and the ‘Security Architecture of Existence’: Immunity, Autochthony, and Ontological Nativism Thomas Sutherland
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Lincoln Institutional Repository Draft version – please do not cite Peter Sloterdijk and the ‘security architecture of existence’: Immunity, autochthony, and ontological nativism Thomas Sutherland The act of dwelling, insists Martin Heidegger (1971: 159), is a constitutive element of human existence, the plight or pathos of this perpetual exigency for dwelling being ‘that mortals ever search anew for the essence of dwelling, that they must ever learn to dwell’. Surely no philosopher has taken this claim as seriously as Peter Sloterdijk (2016: 37), whose now wholly-translated Spheres trilogy furnishes an elaborate ontology premised upon the figuration of atmosphere as a spatialized existential condition, seeking ‘a technological theory of humanly inhabited, symbolically air-conditioned spaces’. In spite of Sloterdijk’s sharp critiques of the credos of liberalism, universalism, and postmodernism, and his significant insight into issues of contemporary precarity, social isolation, and economic and socio- cultural disruption, however, his political commitments, and the normative implications of his ontology, demand closer examination. Indeed, although it may well be correct to observe that the Spheres trilogy is mostly spared the rhetorical excesses and reductive polemics of Sloterdijk’s newspaper articles and later books (see Hoban 2012), I wish to argue that it nevertheless evinces an anti- cosmopolitanism congruent with the political

Dante rated it it was ok Jan 18, This book is amazing! With this in view, Nietzsche invents some take-and- run gifts that take the form of aphorisms, poems and arguments. Rather, Nietzsche advocates for an individualism that is free to pursue self- enhancement despite social pressures to the contrary. Today we enjoy a safe distance of one hundred years that enables us to see these detonations of self-awareness from sufficient distance. Request Permissions Exam copy. Yet for all the significance of this language-event named Nietzsche, Nietzsche's contributions have too often been elided and the contradictions at the root of his philosophy too often edited out. Paperback , 88 pages. This corresponds to a vaccination procedure at the moral level. At bottom, it signifies the disclosure of the nature of authorship and literary discourse. If anyone seeks to give a more distinguished gift, it can only involve the giving of an unreciprocable gift with no strings attached. Nietzsche Apostle offers a brief history of self-praise and self-affirmation, an examination of the evolution of boasting both by God and by man , and a very original approach to Nietzsche, philosophy's first designer brand of individualism.

Nietzsche's hostile critics are almost unanimous in condemning him for the hyperboles of his self-dramatization, whether under the mask of Zarathustra, in the exorbitant claims of the philosopher pointing to himself with a cry of Ecce Homo (New York, 1967), or in his polemics against other histrionic figures like Wagner. The recent French readings of Nietzsche, most prominently those by Jacques Derrida and Gilles Deleuze, have sought to undercut such a psychologizing tendency by reducing Friedrich Nietzsche to the texts that bear his signature and by dissolving the persona in the play
