  • Ecstatic Melancholic: Ambivalence, Electronic Music and Social Change Around the Fall of the Berlin Wall
    Ecstatic Melancholic: Ambivalence, Electronic Music and Social Change around the Fall of the Berlin Wall Ben Gook The Cold War’s end infused electronic music in Berlin after 1989 with an ecstatic intensity. Enthused communities came together to live out that energy and experiment in conditions informed by past suffering and hope for the future. This techno-scene became an ‘intimate public’ (Berlant) within an emergent ‘structure of feeling’ (Williams). Techno parties held out a promise of freedom while Germany’s re-unification quickly broke into disputes and mutual suspicion. Tracing the historical movement during the first years of re-unified Germany, this article adds to accounts of ecstasy by considering it in conjunction with melancholy, arguing for an ambivalent description of ecstatic experience – and of emotional life more broadly. Keywords: German re-unification, electronic dance music, structure of feeling, intimate publics, ambivalence. Everybody was happy Ecstasy shining down on me ... I’m raving, I’m raving But do I really feel the way I feel?1 In Germany around 1989, techno music coursed through a population already energised by the Fall of the Berlin Wall. The years 1989 and 1990 were optimistic for many in Germany and elsewhere. The Cold War’s end heralded a conclusion to various deadlocks. Young Germans acutely felt this release from stasis and rushed to the techno-scene.2 Similar scenes also flourished in neighbouring European countries, the United States and Britain around the 1 ‘Raving I’m Raving,’ Shut up and Dance (UK: Shut Up and Dance Records, 1992), vinyl.

  • On Mourning Sickness
    Missed Revolutions, Non-Revolutions, Revolutions to Come: On Mourning Sickness An Encounter with: Rebecca Comay. Mourning Sickness: Hegel and the French Revolution. Stanford: Stanford University Press, 2011. 224 pages. REBECCA COMAY in Conversation with JOSHUA NICHOLS Rebecca Comay’s new book Mourning Sickness sets its sights on Hegel’s response to the French Revolutionary Terror. In this respect it provides the reader with both a detailed examination of Hegel’s interpretation of the Terror and the historical and philosophical context of this interpretation. In and of itself this would be a valuable contribution to the history of philosophy in general and Hegel studies in particular, but Comay’s book extends beyond the confines of a historical study. It explores Hegel’s struggle with the meaning of the Terror and, as such, it explores the general relationship between event and meaning. By doing so this book forcefully draws Hegel into present-day discussions of politics, violence, trauma, witness, and memory. The following interview took place via email correspondence. The overall aim is twofold: to introduce the main themes of the book and to touch on some of its contemporary implications. JOSHUA NICHOLS: This text accomplishes the rare feat of revisiting what is, in many respects, familiar and well-worn philosophical terrain (i.e., Hegel’s Phenomenology) and brings the reader to see the text from a new angle, under a different light, almost as if for the first time. PhaenEx 7, no. 1 (spring/summer 2012): 309-346 © 2012 Rebecca Comay and Joshua Nichols - 310 - PhaenEx Your reading of Hegel’s notion of forgiveness as being “as hyperbolic as anything in Derrida, as asymmetrical as anything in Levinas, as disastrous as anything in Blanchot, as paradoxical as anything in Kierkegaard” is just one example of the surprising interpretive possibilities that this text opens (Comay, Mourning Sickness 135).

  • Dark Tourism
    Dark Tourism: Understanding the Concept and Recognizing the Values Ramesh Raj Kunwar, PhD APF Command and Staff College, Nepal Email: [email protected] Neeru Karki Department of Conflict, Peace and Development Studies, TU Email: [email protected] „Man stands in his own shadow and wonders why it‟s dark‟ (Zen Proverb; in Stone, Hartmann, Seaton, Sharpley & White, 2018, preface). Abstract Dark tourism is a youngest subset of tourism, introduced only in 1990s. It is a multifaceted and diverse phenomenon. Dark tourism studies carried out in the Western countries succinctly portrays dark tourism as a study of history and heritage, tourism and tragedies. Dark tourism has been identified as niche or special interest tourism. This paper highlights how dark tourism has been theoretically conceptualized in previous studies. As an umbrella concept dark tourism includes than tourism, blackspot tourism, morbid tourism, disaster tourism, conflict tourism, dissonant heritage tourism and others. This paper examines how dark tourism as a distinct form of tourism came into existence in the tourism academia and how it could be understood as a separate subset of tourism in better way. Basically, this study focuses on deathscapes, repressed sadism, commercialization of grief, commoditization of death, dartainment, blackpackers, darsumers and deathseekers capitalism. This study generates curiosity among the readers and researchers to understand and explore the concepts and values of dark tourism in a better way. Keywords: Dark tourism, authenticity, supply and demand, emotion and experience Introduction Tourism is a complex phenomenon involving a wide range of people, increasingly seeking for new and unique experiences in order to satisfy the most diverse motives, reason why the world tourism landscape has been changing in the last decades (Seabra, Abrantes, & Karstenholz, 2014; in Fonseca, Seabra, & Silva, 2016, p.

    A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of University of Washington Committee: Program Authorized to Offer Degree: ©Copyright 2018 Daniel A. Nolan IV University of Washington Abstract Souvenirs and Travel Guides: The Cognitive Sociology of Grieving Public Figures Daniel A. Nolan IV Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Sarah Quinn Department of Sociology The deaths of public figures can produce a variety of emotional reactions. While bereavement research has explored mourning family or close friends, this literature does little to address the experience of grief for public figures. Similarly, research on how people relate to public figures provides an incomplete picture of the symbolic associations people can form with those figures. This study relies on interviews with individuals who had a memorable reaction to the death of a public figure to explore how these individuals related to that figure. Results suggest two ideal type reactions: Grief, characterized by disruption and sharp pain, and Melancholy, characterized by distraction and dull ache. Respondents reported symbolic associations between the figure and some meaning they had incorporated into their cognitive framework. I argue that emotional reactions to the death of a public figure are an affective signal of disruption to the individual’s cognitive functioning caused by the loss of meaning maintained by the figure. The key difference in kind and intensity of reaction is related to the cognitive salience of the lost meaning. This research highlights how individuals use internalized cultural objects in their sense-making process. More broadly, by revealing symbolically meaningful relationships that shape cognitive frameworks, this analysis offers cognitive sociological insights into research about the function of role models, collective memories, and other cultural objects on the individual’s understanding of their world.

  • Work After Death: an Examination of the Relationship Between Grief
    Work after Death: An Examination of the Relationship Between Grief, Emotional Labour, and the Lived Experience of Returning to Work after a Bereavement Natalie Pitimson School of Applied Social Sciences, Brighton University, Brighton, United Kingdom [email protected] Abstract The lived experience of returning to work after a bereavement remains relatively under researched. Within sociology the notion of emotional labour has been explored at length but the place and experience of grief in the workplace is less well understood. This research, framed by Hochschild’s work on feeling rules, focuses on professional individuals working in UK companies who agreed to discuss their experiences of returning to work after a bereavement, in terms of dealing with their own emotions and those of their colleagues, as well as navigating company policy in the area of compassionate leave. Qualitative data from seven semi-structured interviews were analysed, exposing key common emotional and experiential themes, particularly regarding disenfranchised grief, comfort in the familiarity of the work environment and the impact of silent or awkward responses from colleagues. The emergent themes from the data were used to address the research objective of examining the relationship between grief, emotional labour, and the lived experience of returning to work after a bereavement. Keywords Bereavement, work, disenfranchisement, grief, emotional labour, compassionate leave Introduction People often return to work having only had a few days off after a bereavement yet relatively little is known about how grief affects the workplace (Hazen, 2008). Death is often considered one of the last remaining taboos in society (McGuiness and Williams, 2014), however, as Hall (2014) reminds us, loss and grief are fundamental to human life, grief is “the price we pay for love” (p.7).

  • 8 Burnham Hegel FINAL.Docx
    CONTINENTAL THOUGHT & THEORY: A JOURNAL OF INTELLECTUAL FREEDOM Emancipation after Hegel Volume 2 | Issue 4: Emancipation after Hegel 108-138 | ISSN: 2463-333X Hegel without Lacan: on Todd McGowan’s Emancipation after Hegel Clint Burnham 0. A note on method If Todd McGowan’s new book on Hegel didn’t exist, we would have to invent it. McGowan is the giant of Vermont, the Bernie Sanders of the academy, the Larry David of Lacanian theory. In my review I make the following argument: desire is algorithmic, and realized in clickbait (clickbait names Hegel’s dialectics). McGowan’s book finds in Hegel a philosopher for the “after theory” era, a philosopher who forbids us from remaining satisfied with particularisms of the left or the right, a philosopher whose theory of contradiction is both universalist and grounded in the singular, a Hegel for whom love and duty are the slamdance of emancipation. 1. Getting distracted with Hegel In her study of the colonial origins of Hegel’s master-slave dialectic, Susan Buck- Morss asks what happens when we think of Haiti “as an agent in Europe’s construction” asking her reader to approach this question “in the form of a rebus, a picture puzzle, composed of three images.” 1 The first image is a 1787 illustration for Voltaire’s Candide by Jean-Michel Moreau le Jeune, depicting a slave “who has been mutilated by his master”,2 losing a hand and his leg; the second is a dream of 108 CONTINENTAL THOUGHT & THEORY: A JOURNAL OF INTELLECTUAL FREEDOM Emancipation after Hegel Spinoza’s, of “a certain black and mangy Brazilian… [an] Ethiopian who kept appearing with the same vividness again and again”; 3 the third is an anecdote of Adam Smith’s inveterate snatching at lumps of sugar when at tea.
