From within the fields of theater and performance studies, “The Ambivalence of Resistance: West German Antiauthoritarian Performance after the Age of Affluence” approaches this question historically. It surveys the types of performance that decolonization and New Left movements in 1960s West Germany used to engage reconfigurations in the global labor process and the emergence of anti-imperialist struggles internationally, from documentary drama and happenings to direct action tactics like street blockades and building occupations.

  • The Commune Movement During the 1960S and the 1970S in Britain, Denmark and The
    The Commune Movement during the 1960s and the 1970s in Britain, Denmark and the United States Sangdon Lee Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Leeds School of History September 2016 i The candidate confirms that the work submitted is his own and that appropriate credit has been given where reference has been made to the work of others. This copy has been supplied on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement ⓒ 2016 The University of Leeds and Sangdon Lee The right of Sangdon Lee to be identified as Author of this work has been asserted by him in accordance with the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988 ii Abstract The communal revival that began in the mid-1960s developed into a new mode of activism, ‘communal activism’ or the ‘commune movement’, forming its own politics, lifestyle and ideology. Communal activism spread and flourished until the mid-1970s in many parts of the world. To analyse this global phenomenon, this thesis explores the similarities and differences between the commune movements of Denmark, UK and the US. By examining the motivations for the communal revival, links with 1960s radicalism, communes’ praxis and outward-facing activities, and the crisis within the commune movement and responses to it, this thesis places communal activism within the context of wider social movements for social change. Challenging existing interpretations which have understood the communal revival as an alternative living experiment to the nuclear family, or as a smaller part of the counter-culture, this thesis argues that the commune participants created varied and new experiments for a total revolution against the prevailing social order and its dominant values and institutions, including the patriarchal family and capitalism.

  • Familiäre Wohngemeinschaften
    Familiäre Wohngemeinschaften Anmerkungen zur Sozialstruktur und Dynamik der Patchwork - Familie 1 von Detlef Klöckner Dieser Aufsatz widmet sich einem aufstrebenden Familienmodell, der sogenannten Patch- work – Familie. Überhaupt von einem Modell zu sprechen, - wo es sich doch nur um die „Undichte Wiederaufbereitungsanlage einer abgebrannten Familienruine“ handelt (anony- mes Graffiti), – ist ebenso fragwürdig wie unumgänglich, so lange sich Elternpaare in großer Zahl trennen und zu Zweitfamilien zusammenschließen. Der Autor beleuchtet die besondere Atmosphäre einer zusammengestückelten Familie. Welche Fragen stellen sich der Patchwork – Familie und welche Antworten stehen ihr zur Verfügung, welche eher nicht? Was unter- scheidet Patchwork – Familien von Primärfamilien im Umgang miteinander und im Hand- lungsspielraum? Die „second hand“ - Familie erinnert in manchem an Wohngemeinschaften und sie vereint in ihren Räumen in verkleinertem Maßstab, was die komplexe soziale Situati- on unserer Gesellschaft im Großen ausmacht: das widersprüchlich und unklar aufeinander Bezogene. Der Autor beruft sich auf Untersuchungen zum Thema und nutzt die Erfahrungen aus seiner Beratungspraxis. Familienberatung ist bis heute ein vernachlässigtes Arbeitsfeld der Gestalttherapie. Das liegt nicht an der Konzeption, sonder begründet sich aus der Entwicklungsgeschichte der gestalt- therapeutischen Praxis. Als psychologische Anwendung der Feld- bzw. Systemtheorie ist die Gestalttherapie prinzipiell offen für Arbeitskontexte, die sich mit sozialen Beziehungen

Where I have drawn upon the work of other researchers, this has been fully acknowledged. 2 Abstract In this thesis I offer a new reading of Don DeLillo’s fiction through an engagement with contemporary Marxist literary theory and political economy. Beginning in the 1960s, the thesis traces the launch, expansion, and shattering of DeLillo’s narrative apparatus as it recomposes itself across the genres of the short story, the conspiratorial thriller, the historical novel, and the novel of time. Developing on theories of the novel as a capitalist epic, the thesis takes the insistent appearance of surplus populations in DeLillo’s work as an opportunity to reflect on, but also to revise and reconceptualise, Marxist accounts of the novel and its philosophy of history.

Introduction Electric Junk: Krautrock’s Identity Crisis If there is any musical subculture to which this modern age of online music consumption has been particularly kind, it is certainly the obscure, groundbreaking, and oft misunderstood German pop music phenomenon known as “krautrock”. That krautrock’s appeal to new generations of musicians and fans both in Germany and abroad continues to grow with each passing year is a testament to the implicitly iconoclastic nature of the style; krautrock still sounds odd, eccentric, and even confrontational approximately twenty-five years after the movement is generally considered to have ended.1 In fact, it is difficult nowadays to even page through a recent issue of major periodicals like Rolling Stone or Spin without chancing upon some kind of passing reference to the genre.
