  • The Contradictions of Techno-Nationalism and Techno-Globalism: a Historical Perspective
    New Global Studies Volume 1, Issue 1 2007 Article 1 The Contradictions of Techno-Nationalism and Techno-Globalism: A Historical Perspective David E.H. Edgerton, Hans Rausing Professor of Science and Technology, Imperial College, London Recommended Citation: Edgerton, David E.H. (2007) "The Contradictions of Techno-Nationalism and Techno- Globalism: A Historical Perspective," New Global Studies: Vol. 1: Iss. 1, Article 1. DOI: 10.2202/1940-0004.1013 ©2007 New Global Studies. All rights reserved. The Contradictions of Techno-Nationalism and Techno-Globalism: A Historical Perspective David E.H. Edgerton Abstract Techno-nationalism and techno-globalism are descriptive and prescriptive categories for understanding the impact of technology on society and vice versa. They reflect the underlying assumptions made by analysts of the place of technology in the world, and denote ideologies, rather than technological policies or realities. They also help us to realize that standard accounts of the nation and globalization are not as securely based as they appear. Indeed, nations and states are important in ways techno-nationalism does not capture, and the international and global dimension is crucial in ways which that techno-globalism overlooks. Yet an analysis of both terms yields building blocks to a more sophisticated appreciation of the linkages between the nation, technological innovation and globalization. KEYWORDS: techno-globalism, techno-nationalism, technology Author Notes: David E.H. Edgerton is the Hans Rausing Professor of History of Science at the Technology Imperial College, London. Edgerton: Contradictions of Techno-Nationalism and Techno-Globalism In this article I distinguish two approaches, which I label techno- nationalism and techno-globalism, to the study of technology and society at macro-level.

  • A DEFENCE of the CLICHÉ1 Samuel Godwin
    JOURNAL OF ENGLISH STUDIES - VOLUME 5 (2005-2006), 139-153 A DEFENCE OF THE CLICHÉ1 ADOLPHE HABERER Université Lumière-Lyon 2 ABSTRACT. A sure thing is that clichés have a bad reputation. Trying to define the cliché as a linguistic or stylistic category, however, leads to all sorts of difficulties, as we seem to be dealing with “matters as imprecise as the shape and size of a cloud or the beginning and end of a wave”. Following the example of Louis MacNeice who once wrote a “Homage to Clichés”, in this paper I will take the defence of the cliché and show that in the terms of a (Lacanian) problematics of the subject’s enunciation it has its own function and significance. “ce cœur parlant que nous appelons l’inconscient” 2 Jacques Lacan (in Kaufman 1993: 395) Samuel Godwin (1948), the Hollywood cinema magnate, is reported to have once said to his team of script-writers: “Let’s have some new clichés!”. This raises the question of whether one can “make it new” when dealing in clichés, or be at all original when dealing with clichés – as I will be doing here –, bearing in mind everything that has been said or written on the subject. Perhaps, the only proper way to address the cliché is, as we shall see presently, to follow the example of Louis MacNeice, who composed a “Homage to clichés”, and write up something that would be both an illustration and a defence of the cliché, a discourse from which anything new or original would be eliminated, leaving only what falls into the categories of the banal, the commonplace, the ready-made formula, the 1.

  • The Use of the Bow No
    Sermon #1694 Metropolitan Tabernacle Pulpit 1 THE USE OF THE BOW NO. 1694 DELIVERED AT THE THURSDAY EVENING LECTURE, BY C. H. SPURGEON, AT THE METROPOLITAN TABERNACLE, NEWINGTON. “And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son: (Also he bade them teach the children of Judah the use of the bow: behold, it is written in the book of Jasher).” 2 Samuel 1:17, 18. THE translators have acted very properly in inserting the words, “the use of,” for that is what the passage means. But if you read it without those words, the sense is still the same— “He bade them teach the chil- dren of Judah the bow,” that is to say, how to use the bow. In modern times, critics have said that by the expression, “the bow,” is meant the song which David composed. And to sustain their notion, they quote from the Koran of Mahomet in which they tell us that there is a certain chapter called, “the Bow,” and, therefore, David called his song, “the bow,” as if so late an instance of oriental usage was at all to the point. I declare that there is nothing whatever in Scripture to justify the state- ment that the words, “the bow,” can be applied to David’s lament! No doubt, some of the Psalms have titles given to them, but there is never an instance of a Psalm being quoted by its title. It is quoted by its number, never by its name. I accept the passage as our learned transla- tors understood it—David bade them teach the children of Judah the bow.

The BBC leads the way with 46 nominations across its channels, with BBC One and HBO’s hit shows, His Dark Materials receiving four and I May Destroy You garnering three nominations respectively. Sky follows the BBC with 10 nominations with Gangs of London, Brassic and Catherine the Great all shortlisted. The prestigious awards will be celebrated on Monday 23rd November on the RTS website with special guest appearances.

Chair of the Awards, Anne Mensah, said: “The standard of television this year has been incredible and provided audiences with both comfort and escapism, as well as new and underrepresented perspectives, in what has been such a turbulent time for all of us. We are very much looking forward to celebrating the talented individuals and teams who continue to produce world class content, later this month.” The Craft & Design Awards accept entries from both individual craftspeople and broadcasters, and the juries take into consideration production difference, budget and time scale involved.

    The Practice and Politics of Children’s Music Education in the German Democratic Republic, 1949-1976 By Anicia Chung Timberlake A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Richard Taruskin, Chair Professor Mary Ann Smart Professor Nicholas Mathew Professor Martin Jay Spring 2015 Abstract The Practice and Politics of Children’s Music Education in the German Democratic Republic, 1949-1976 by Anicia Chung Timberlake Doctor of Philosophy in Music University of California, Berkeley Professor Richard Taruskin, Chair This dissertation examines the politics of children’s music education in the first decades of the German Democratic Republic. The East German state famously attempted to co-opt music education for propagandistic purposes by mandating songs with patriotic texts. However, as I show, most pedagogues believed that these songs were worthless as political education: children, they argued, learned not through the logic of texts, but through the immediacy of their bodies and their emotions. These educators believed music to be an especially effective site for children’s political education, as music played to children’s strongest suit: their unconscious minds and their emotions. Many pedagogues, composers, and musicologists thus adapted Weimar-era methods that used mostly non-texted music to instill what they held to be socialist values of collectivism, diligence, open-mindedness, and critical thought. I trace the fates of four of these pedagogical practices—solfège, the Orff Schulwerk, lessons in listening, and newly-composed “Brechtian” children’s operas—demonstrating how educators sought to graft the new demands of the socialist society onto inherited German musical and pedagogical traditions.

  • Elements of Satire and Irony in the Major Works of George Orwell
    ELEMENTS OF SATIRE AND IRONY IN THE MAJOR WORKS OF GEORGE ORWELL ABSTRACT \ THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF JBottor of $I)iIo£(opt)p \ : IN ENGLISH V / BY JAWED S. AHMED DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (INDIA) 2004 .-^•Tb NoT^43.i\?rf Chapter- I: Introduction This chapter explores the English writers' mindset especially during 1920's and 1930's and the background against which they were writing. In this chapter the history of satire has been explored right from the time of Persius, Horace and Juvenal - all considered to be classical masters of satire. Chaucer and Langland also find mention here as they too are renowned in this genre. The Age of Restoration in England was the age of political satire and both Dryden and Pope stand out as towering figures. Swift too holds a special position for his generalized satire. The sole objective of the satirists can rightly be said to correct the vices of society. George Orwell, too set out to highlight the discrepancies in the political system out of a sense of concern for diluting the power of evil in the world of politics. And at the end of the day, we find that he succeeds to a very great extent in expressing his socio-political views, and his commitment to bring about a radical change for the betterment of society. Chapter- II: Social and Political Baclcground In this chapter the causes of Orwell's all-round disillusionment are explored. His experiences are traced beginning with St. Cyprian's, then his bitter experiences as a police officer in Burma; after that his life in Paris and London and Spain.
