  • Tim Walters, Okanagan College
    World Football in the Twenty-First Century: A Manifesto The ideas in this presentation are drawn from a forthcoming book length project that uses the theory of Slovenian philosopher Slavoj Žižek to imagine what football should be for in the 21st century. Today, I will focus on international football (particularly FIFA) and advance a ten point plan that is grounded in a deep analysis of the appeal and the antagonisms of the game itself, that is practically and almost immediately implementable, politically and economically feasible, and fit for the purpose of managing what the sport is and will be, rather than what it was once imagined to be. Before I get to the manifesto itself—and because I lack the time to carefully develop each of these ideas as fully as I should—I will outline some preliminary Žižekian assumptions that inform this analysis. To the broad conference question of whether or not reform or revolution is required, my answer is that only a combination of both can lead to the creation of an organization that is up to the task of governing football, but that genuinely revolutionary reforms are required. Žižek is singularly well suited to help us in this regard. My broader project is to transpose his critical ideas about the world/ capitalism in general into the realm of football/ capitalism specifically. From this analytical perspective, the following must be true of any attempts to fix FIFA: a. “It’s the economy, stupid.” Most importantly, football’s problems are symptomatic of its increasingly complex relationship to modern capital, and must be treated as such.

    VICO: Very Intense Conceptual Open/The New SCIENCE Brought to you by Will Holub-Moorman and Jacob Reed Packet 6 1. [Note to moderator: please read the first sentence of this question slowly] In one section of this book, its author notes that the Zulu use a word that translates to the phrase "There where someone cries out: ‘O mother, I am lost,’" in place of the phrase "far away." In another section of this book, its narrator describes how an "anxiety of becoming" the is created by the tension between "vegetable security and spiritual venture," which is exemplified by being gazed upon by his cat. The introduction to the 1970 translation of this non-Nietzsche book claims that its romantic style obscures its anti-romantic message. That introduction frequently repeats its opening declaration that (*) "man’s attitudes are manifold," and was written by Walter Kaufmann. This aphoristic book claims that disillusionment with modern society is due to man’s overdependence on "experience," or a mode of engaging with the world that its author calls "I-it." For 10 points, name this book that promotes the mode of "encounter" as a way to God, a work by Martin Buber. ANSWER: I and Thou [or Ich und Du] <WHM> 2. In the opening of a 2000 book, Lawrence Jacobs and Robert Shapiro connect the rise of these things to a pernicious "myth of pandering." These things can be tainted via social desirability bias, an example of which is the so-called Bradley effect. An artwork by Hans Haacke ("HA-kuh") for the MoMA exhibition Information took the form of one of these things in order to criticize Nelson Rockefeller, founding the practice of institutional critique.

    June 29, 2015 Ms. Jacqueline C. Charlesworth General Counsel and Associate Register of Copyrights United States Copyright Office 101 Independence Ave. S.E. Washington, D.C. 20559-6000 Re: June 3, 2015 questions posed to Class 6 witnesses in the § 1201 rulemaking proceeding Dear Ms. Charlesworth: Thank you for your question of June 3, 2015. We write to provide the definition of documentary films and to address your request for commonly accepted delineations of various genres of films. We urge the Copyright Office to follow the definition of documentary films widely used by federal courts, as any departure from this definition would be dangerous and would require examining nearly one hundred years of options.1 In Psenicska v. Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation, the Second Circuit defined documentary film as film that “comprises interviews with real people and depictions of real events that are intended to provide a factual record or report.”2 A number of cases follow the same principles when characterizing films as documentaries.3 Another method to define documentary films is through the Supreme Court’s proposed plain meaning rule,4 in which dictionary definitions provide guidance as to a term’s commonly accepted meaning.5 For the term “documentary,” the Psenicska v. Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation definition uses the same language as the definition of documentary in the Oxford Dictionary.6 Thus, the plain meaning rule leads us to the same definition for documentary as quoted above. Examples of documentary films include Waiting for “Superman” and the 2014 Oscar winner for Best Documentary Feature 20 Feet from Stardom.
