  • Mother of Exiles
    WRITERS Mother of Exiles By Anne Peretz with Martin Garbus FLATLANDS AS FAR AS YOU COULD SEE, the occasional oil rig cutting the skyline—a walk through Dilley, Texas, on a Sunday afternoon produced no living human being, not even a dog. They told us there were two thousand people but the ominous stillness forewarned what was coming next. An eight-lane highway extended as far as one could see, straight from the border of Mexico. Next to this outlandish stretch of road were four motels, three gas stations, one market, and one Mexican restaurant called Millie’s. Across the road and down a bit were two miles of metal fencing and two long, low buildings—a maximum-se- curity prison for men and a detention center that housed women and children. No trees anywhere—just hundreds of tall posts supporting huge lights defined the barren space. In late January 2019, four of us—Carolina Grynbal and myself criteria,” include being part of a persecuted indigenous minority, from the Parenting Journey in Massachusetts, and Martin Garbus race, or nationality; being a member of a persecuted religious group and James O’Malley, both lawyers—spent a week in Dilley at the South or threatened political group; threats of death to a family or child (a Texas Family Residential Center, a detention center that holds approx- threat to one adult is inadequate); or a situation in which the govern- imately 2,400 women and children.1 Including the four of us, there ment or police cannot or will not intervene.

  • The Korean Internet Freak Community and Its Cultural Politics, 2002–2011
    The Korean Internet Freak Community and Its Cultural Politics, 2002–2011 by Sunyoung Yang A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Anthropology University of Toronto © Copyright by Sunyoung Yang Year of 2015 The Korean Internet Freak Community and Its Cultural Politics, 2002–2011 Sunyoung Yang Doctor of Philosophy Department of Anthropology University of Toronto 2015 Abstract In this dissertation I will shed light on the interwoven process between Internet development and neoliberalization in South Korea, and I will also examine the formation of new subjectivities of Internet users who are also becoming neoliberal subjects. In particular, I examine the culture of the South Korean Internet freak community of DCinside.com and the phenomenon I have dubbed “loser aesthetics.” Throughout the dissertation, I elaborate on the meaning-making process of self-reflexive mockery including the labels “Internet freak” and “surplus (human)” and gender politics based on sexuality focusing on gender ambiguous characters, called Nunhwa, as a means of collective identity-making, and I explore the exploitation of unpaid immaterial labor through a collective project making a review book of a TV drama Painter of the Wind. The youth of South Korea emerge as the backbone of these creative endeavors as they try to find their place in a precarious labor market that has changed so rapidly since the 1990s that only the very best succeed, leaving a large group of disenfranchised and disillusioned youth. I go on to explore the impact of late industrialization and the Asian financial crisis, and the nationalistic desire not be left behind in the age of informatization, but to be ahead of the curve.

  • View Annual Report
    To Our Stockholders, In 2008, we embraced a tremendous amount of fundamental change against the backdrop of a deteriorating external market and economy. Even with the challenges, we exited the year a stronger company and remain a leader in e-commerce, payments and Internet voice communications. Our performance for the full year not only reflects the strength of our portfolio, but also the operating discipline, strategic clarity and focus with which our management team is leading the company going forward. Financially, the company had a good year, marked by strong revenue growth, stronger EPS growth and excellent free cash flow. Despite the extremely challenging economic environment in 2008 – including a slowdown in global e-commerce, a strengthening dollar, and declining interest rates – we delivered $8.5 billion in revenues, an 11 percent increase from the prior year, and $1.36 of diluted EPS. We also delivered a solid operating margin of 24 percent. The size of the eBay marketplace continues to be the largest in the world with nearly $60 billion of gross merchandise volume (the total value of goods sold in all of our Marketplaces) in 2008. PayPal continues to experience strong growth, both on eBay and across e-commerce, and Skype had a great year, growing both revenues and user base. In addition, we strengthened our portfolio by investing in the growth of our emerging businesses and through key acquisitions. In 2008, advertising, global classifieds and StubHub, the leading online tickets marketplace, all gained momentum in terms of revenues. Key acquisitions we made during the year will help us build on our strengths.
