Jo raštai apie autonomiją ir socialines institucijas buvo įtakingi tiek akademiniuose, tiek aktyvistų sluoksniuose. 1922 m. kovo 11 d. Konstantinopolio mieste gimė 1922 m. kovo 11 d. Konstantinopolio Kaisaro (Caesar) ir Sophia Kastoriadis sūnuje. Dėl Graikijos ir Turkijos gyventojų mainų jo šeima 1922 m. liepą turėjo persikelti į Atėnus. Jis išugdė susidomėjimą after he contacted Marxist thought and philosophy at the age of 13. [112] At the same time, he began studying traditional philosophy after a historian of ideas acquired a copy of the book Philosophy (Ιστορία της Φιλοσοφίας, 1933, 2 vols.) a copy of the history of ideas by Nikolaos Louvaris [el]. Between 1932 and 1935, Maximiani Portas (later known as Savitri Devi) was a teacher of the French Castoriadis. During the same period, he participated in the 8th Athens Gymnasium Kato Patisia, from which he graduated in 1937. His first active participation in politics occurred during the Metaxas regime (1937), when he joined the Athens Communist Youth (ΚομουνιστικΉ Νεολαία Θθūkας, Kommounistiki Neolaia Athinas), a branch of the Greek Junior Communist League. In 1941, he joined the Communist Party of Greece (KKE), only a year after he left to become an active trotsky. [114] He was persecuted by both the German and communist parties as a result of the latter action. In 1944, he wrote his first essays

Contributions and paradoxes in the ‘sustainable turn’ in consumer culture – Juan SANIN Greening ‘The Block’: Sustainability in mainstream lifestyle TV – Aggeliki AGGELI and Gavin MELLES Dreaming sustainability, realising utopia: ‘convergence’ and ‘divergence’ in art and design practice – Robert HARLAND, Maria Cecilia LOSCHIAVO DOS SANTOS, Gillian WHITELEY 588 Unmaking Waste 2015 Conference Proceedings 22 – 24 May 2015 Adelaide, South Australia Anti-consumerism: Contributions and paradoxes in the ‘sustainable turn’ in consumer culture Juan SANIN RMIT University, Australia Industrial Design / Cultural Studies This paper examines three artefacts representative of anti-consumerism: the ‘Blackspot Unswoosher’, a shoe produced by the ‘Blackspot Anticorporation’ and publicised as the shoe that will reinvent capitalism; ‘Buy Nothing New Month’, a Melbourne-based initiative promoting a ‘more “custodial” valuing of possessions’ based on the premise of ‘old is the new new’; and ‘Buy Nothing Day’, an international day of protest against over-consumption that encourages consumers to advance sustainable causes through the slogan ‘participate by not participating’. In doing this, it aims to shed light on new approaches to sustainability emerging from consumer culture. These approaches, as the paper shows, advocate for a movement away from modern consumerism towards sustainable ways of consumption. The discussion of these artefacts draws on critical approaches to consumer culture and is framed by what I propose to call “the sustainable turn”. The literature suggests that from all the approaches to sustainability emerging from consumer culture, anti-consumerism appears to be the most radical and paradoxical.

    CONSUMER HOLIDAY STRUCTURE: AN ANALYSIS OF CHRISTIAN HOLIDAY PATTERNS AND CONSUMER RITUAL PRACTICE IN AMERICA A THESIS IN Sociology Presented to the Faculty of the University of Missouri-Kansas City in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF ARTS by Basil Rogers Cassell B.A., Pepperdine University, 1987 M.Div., Cross Cultural Studies Emphasis, Fuller Theological Seminary, 1990 Kansas City, Missouri 2010 © 2010 BASIL ROGERS CASSELL ALL RIGHTS RESERVED CONSUMER HOLIDAY STRUCTURE: AN ANALYSIS OF CHRISTIAN HOLIDAY PATTERNS AND CONSUMER RITUAL PRACTICE IN AMERICA Basil Rogers Cassell, Candidate for the Master of Arts Degree University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2010 ABSTRACT This thesis explores the rituals that reinforce American capitalist consumerism, specifically focusing on the Christian holiday calendar structure. Major Christian holidays are viewed as complex sets and repeated patterns, involving inversions and binary oppositions. A structuralist analysis is applied to explore the role of Black Friday as a new consumer holiday in a larger symbol set—one that reveals the reinforcement of underlying values and practices of consumerism. The structural comparison of the meaning of Fat Tuesday and Ash Wednesday as the inauguration of Lent as a season of non-consumption is compared to Thanksgiving and Black Friday as the inauguration of a season of consumption and shopping during Advent. Seen from a structural viewpoint, new consumer holidays take prominence in practice, re-defining seasons in relation to consumption, that previously had been defined by civil religious structure and meaning. The re-definition of civil religion as consumer civil religion, and implications for related social theories are discussed.

  • Select Any Contemporary Social Movement and Discuss Its Central Issues and Forms of Organisation, and Outline Its Strategy and Tactics
    Select any contemporary social movement and discuss its central issues and forms of organisation, and outline its strategy and tactics The following essay will concentrate on the contemporary anti-consumerist social movement with particular focus on the role of Adbusters, a Vancouver based anti-consumerist and anti-corporate organisation. The essay will discuss the central issues and forms of organisation associated with Adbusters and outline their tactics and strategy. A social movement can be defined in a variety of ways depending on the adopted perspective, although most definitions refer to “collective mobilisations with socio-economic, political and/or cultural dimensions, mobilizing around issues of identity, as well as around more specific rights” Mayo (2005:54). Blumer (1969:99) cited in Mayo (2005), similarly conceptualizes social movements as “collective enterprises” whose aim is to create a new way of life. Della Porta & Diani (1999) define social movements as “fluid phenomena” with blurred boundaries, identifying four social movement ‘themes’ which include “informal, interaction networks based upon shared beliefs and solidarity” p17. Adbusters can be included in this theme as its members consist of a communicative network of culture jammers and other acolytes with a shared ethos and common adversary- mass consumption and corporate power. Collectively these networks focus on struggles and conflicts surrounding contemporary culture, often incorporating the use of protest (ibid). Theories of New Social Movements (NSMs) emerged in the 1970s and 1980s and were mostly developed in reaction to the 1968 student riots in France and other related protests in Europe. The strengths to come out of the new research include a refocusing on the deep underlying and wide-ranging socio- Jennifer McIntyre 386984 economic and political questions associated with social movements.

  • Curing Our Affluenza by NORMAN WIRZBA
    Copyright © 2003 The Center for Christian Ethics at Baylor University 89 Curing Our Affluenza BY NORMAN WIRZBA Consumerism has an ambiguous, even destructive, legacy: it has provided status and freedom to some, but has not been successful in treating change and uncer- tainty, inequality and division. As these books discover, our “affluenza”—a feverish obsession to consume mate- rial goods—is not healthy for us or the creation as a whole. Its cure is not a call to dour asceticism, but rather an invitation to receive God’s extravagant grace. early two hundred years ago, Alexis de Tocqueville observed in Democracy in America that Americans, though living among the Nhappiest circumstances of any people in the world, are followed by a cloud that habitually hangs over their heads, a cloud that makes them serious, even sad, in the midst of their pleasures. Though they have cause for celebration, they never stop thinking of “the good things they have not got.” Consequently, they pursue prosperity with a “feverish ardor,” tor- mented by the suspicion that they have not chosen the quickest or shortest path to get it. “They clutch everything but hold nothing fast, and so lose grip as they hurry after some new delight.” Were he alive today, de Tocqueville would not need to change his words very much, perhaps adding only that the intensity of our ardor, the scope of our clutching, and the depth of our loss have increased sub- stantially. Having been advised by countless spiritual guides that money and the pursuit of material comfort will not bring us happiness, why do we still maintain this ambition as a personal, even national, quest? What is becom- 90 Consumerism ing clear to many in our society is that consumerism is not healthy for us or for the creation as a whole, and that it leads to anxiety, stress, boredom, and indigestion, all maladies with tremendous personal and social costs.

  • Showcase USA: Simply Beautiful: Choosing an Uncluttered, Focused, Rich Life
    Showcase USA: Simply Beautiful: Choosing an Uncluttered, Focused, Rich Life Sam Quick Robert Flashman Peter Hesseldenz Abstract The excessive, frenzied quality of American life has left more and more people yearning for balance and simplicity. According to the Trends Research Institute of Rhinebeck, New York, simplification is a leading trend of our times. The Cooperative Extension Service in Kentucky responded by developing a program called "Simply Beautiful." It seeks to teach people how to make the choices that allow them to align their financial lives with their values. The program gently guides people towards asking themselves if they are living the lives they want to live and if not, why not? Rationale for Program The good life, in America, has come to be equated with material possessions. Advertisers would have us believe that spending money leads to happiness. Wealth is a key component of the American Dream; we are encouraged to strive for it from very early on. For many, the images of wealth and the promises of happiness are too compelling to ignore or even look at critically. With easy credit readily available to today's consumers, many adopt a free-spending lifestyle, even if they can't afford it. What is the result? Massive consumer debt and, in many cases, bankruptcy. In 1993, 897,231 consumers filed for bankruptcy in the United States. This number rose to 1,367,364 in 1997, a 52 percent increase. The situation was even worse in Kentucky. The number rose from 12,421 in 1993 to 21,188 in 1997 for an increase of 71 percent (Jordan, 1999).
