Cities and Fascination Beyond the Surplus of Meaning Cities and Fascination Beyond the Surplus of Meaning Edited by Heiko Schmid, Wolf-Dietrich Sahr and John Urry CITIES AND FASCINATION Re-materialising Cultural Geography Dr Mark Boyle, Department of Geography, University of Strathclyde, UK, Professor Donald Mitchell, Maxwell School, Syracuse University, USA and Dr David Pinder, Queen Mary University of London, UK Nearly 25 years have elapsed since Peter Jackson’s seminal call to integrate cultural geography back into the heart of social geography. During this time, a wealth of research has been published which has improved our understanding of how culture both plays a part in, and in turn, is shaped by social relations based on class, gender, race, ethnicity, nationality, disability, age, sexuality and so on. In spite of the achievements of this mountain of scholarship, the task of grounding culture in its proper social contexts remains in its infancy. This series therefore seeks to promote the continued significance of exploring the dialectical relations which exist between culture, social relations and space and place. Its overall aim is to make a contribution to the consolidation, development and promotion of the ongoing project of re-materialising cultural geography.

Though the theming of urban landscapes has been a common subject in urban studies since the 1980s, the emotional function of symbolism has surprisingly been largely neglected in the academic research. So even today, most academic traditions are still profoundly influenced by functional, critical, and semiotic approaches, subordinating the subjective and aesthetic dimensions to a mere secondary category. But Georg Simmel’s investigation of the psychology of metropolitan man, and the contributions of the critical ‘Frankfurt School’ have clearly pointed to the fact that capitalist urbanism goes far beyond such a functionalism, and even beyond semiotics. In this context, a symposium was held in Heidelberg (Germany) from 8–10 November 2007, aiming to add to the discussion with ideas highlighting the different dimensions of fascination in the city as an everyday phenomenon. The symposium ‘Economy of Fascination: Themed Urban Landscapes of Postmodernity’ was intended to reflect primarily on the role of spectacularization and fascination in the recent transformations of urban landscapes into themed environments. Being hosted in the heart of the historic city of Heidelberg, itself a city with a remarkable ‘Romantic’ theme, the conference attracted scholars from different countries and disciplines. During the meeting an inspiring debate began on the phenomenon of ‘fascination’ in and of the city, revealing a great diversity of sometimes controversial positions on the subject. These positions however together formed a network in which almost all the contributions focused on the links between four human dimensions: aesthetics, emotion, experience, and power. Originally it was the intention of the symposium to publish conventional proceedings. However, the diverse and continuing discussions encouraged the editors to venture into a more conceptual book on ‘Cities and Fascination’. We now offer to a broader public the results of these discussions, which have continued during the process of making this book. We hope to hereby give an insight into the subject of fascination in and of the city beyond conventional terms and theories, so that the phenomenon is simultaneously approached from very different perspectives, and where even the organizers interpret the phenomenon from different angles. Thus the book cuts across traditional academic boundaries in the fields of urban studies, architecture, urban sociology, urban geography and cultural studies, but we hope it will fascinate because of its very diversity and the attempt to pave the ground for a difficult dialogue. x Cities and Fascination In this respect, we would like to thank all those who have contributed to the conference ‘Economy of Fascination: Themed Urban Landscapes of Postmodernity’ in Heidelberg, and especially for those who later permitted the publication of their contributions after all having reworked the chapters of this book. We thank the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft [German Research Foundation] and the Foundation of the University of Heidelberg for providing the funds for hosting this conference at the Internationales Wissenschaftsforum Heidelberg [International Academic Forum Heidelberg]. We are also very grateful to Valerie Rose and Jude Chillman at Ashgate for their support, and to Sabine Heurich for her editorial assistance.

  • Liberal Capitalism As a Collective Action Problem
    Liberal Capitalism as a Collective Action Problem Dean Curran [email protected] Paper prepared for the Annual Canadian Political Science Association Meeting Wilfred Laurier, Waterloo, Ontario May 18, 2011 Preliminary Draft Please do not cite without permission In their recent groundbreaking work, The Spirit Level Wilkinson and Pickett (2010) argue that advanced economies have now reached a threshold where economic growth is no longer an effective means of advancing the welfare of its citizens. Instead, for these nations, the key economic criterion for the generation of welfare is the distribution, not the production, of wealth (Wilkinson and Pickett, 2010: 5-10). Such views resonate with those of John Stuart Mill, who argued, contrary to the other liberal political economists, that human welfare would greatly benefit from reaching the end of economic growth. For Mill, it was only in this temporary stage of perpetual economic growth that “the energies of mankind should be kept in employment by the struggle for riches” (Mill, 1987: 748-9). In an economy without growth, the permanent maintenance of an equitable distribution of wealth would ensure that no one ‘has any reason to fear being thrust back by the efforts of others to push themselves forward’ and thus leave people scope to focus their attention and activity upon not merely instrumental activities (Mill, 1987: 748-9). This paper attempts to provide further support for these themes by delineating an alternative model of capitalism that illuminates how, without limits on inequalities, economic growth can lead to almost everyone in a given society being worse off. The particular target of this paper is an economic system in which the primary mechanism for the distribution of goods and services, wealth and labour is through competitive markets – which may be described as ‘liberal capitalism’ for the purposes of this paper (Coates, 2000: 9-10; cf.

It is hard to tell whether the ramshackle stage is inside or outside but it appears to be set up against a wall made of corrugated metal. All else is black. The camera cuts to a close-up of the curtains, which are parted to reveal a pale young man with crow’s nest hair wearing a sequined tuxedo and a skewed bow tie. The man holds a lit cigarette and behind him, overseeing proceedings, is a large statue of the Virgin Mary. As the man with the crow’s nest hair walks fully through the arch he opens his mouth and sings the words ‘As the snow flies, on a cold and grey Chicago morn another little baby child is born…’. The song continues with the singer alternately shuffling as if embarrassed by the attention of the camera and then holding his arms aloft in declamation or fixing the viewer with a steely gaze.

  • Papers of Surrealism, Issue 8, Spring 2010 1
    © Lizzie Thynne, 2010 Indirect Action: Politics and the Subversion of Identity in Claude Cahun and Marcel Moore’s Resistance to the Occupation of Jersey Lizzie Thynne Abstract This article explores how Claude Cahun and Marcel Moore translated the strategies of their artistic practice and pre-war involvement with the Surrealists and revolutionary politics into an ingenious counter-propaganda campaign against the German Occupation. Unlike some of their contemporaries such as Tristan Tzara and Louis Aragon who embraced Communist orthodoxy, the women refused to relinquish the radical relativism of their approach to gender, meaning and identity in resisting totalitarianism. Their campaign built on Cahun’s theorization of the concept of ‘indirect action’ in her 1934 essay, Place your Bets (Les paris sont ouvert), which defended surrealism in opposition to both the instrumentalization of art and myths of transcendence. An examination of Cahun’s post-war letters and the extant leaflets the women distributed in Jersey reveal how they appropriated and inverted Nazi discourse to promote defeatism through carnivalesque montage, black humour and the ludic voice of their adopted persona, the ‘Soldier without a Name.’ It is far from my intention to reproach those who left France at the time of the Occupation. But one must point out that Surrealism was entirely absent from the preoccupations of those who remained because it was no help whatsoever on an emotional or practical level in their struggles against the Nazis.1 Former dadaist and surrealist and close collaborator of André Breton, Tristan Tzara thus dismisses the idea that surrealism had any value in opposing Nazi domination.
