Just six months later, a Czech socialist could marvel at the convocation of an international socialist conference on post- war reconstruction in a Swiss spa, where, across the lake, stood buildings occupied by now-exiled members of the deposed Habsburg ruling class. In May 1923, as Europe’s socialist parties met in Hamburg, Germany, finally to put an end to the war-induced fracturing within their ranks by launching a new organization, the Labour and Socialist International (LSI), the German Communist Party’s main daily published a pull-out flier for posting on factory walls. Bearing the sarcastic title the International of Ministers, it presented to workers a list of forty-one socialists and the national offices held by them in Germany, Austria, Czechoslovakia, Belgium, Poland, France, Sweden, and Denmark. Commenting on the activities of the LSI, in Paris a Russian Menshevik émigré turned prominent left-wing pundit scoffed at the new International’s executive body, which he sarcastically dubbed ‘the International Socialist Cabinet’, since ‘all of its members were ministers, ex-ministers, or prospec- tive ministers of State’.1 Whether one accepted or rejected its new status, socialism’s virtually overnight transformation from an outsider to a consummate insider at the end of Europe’s first total war provided the most striking measure of the quantum leap into what can aptly be described as Europe’s ‘social democratic moment’.2 Moreover, unlike the period after Europe’s second total war, when many of socialism’s basic postulates became permanently embedded in the post-1945 social-welfare-state con- European History Quarterly Copyright © 2001 SAGE Publications, London, Thousand Oaks, CA and New Delhi, Vol.

    1 Mark Nichols Joe Bean 2 3 Mark Nichols Joe Bean 4 PROLOGUE Joe Bean walks on stage. He is watched by 1000 eyes. He does not know he is being watched. To him, all the world is not a stage. To him, the walk from here to there appears to be just another walk through the market where he almost always has lunch. It is important you know this. Not that he has lunch in the market, but that he does not know you are watching him. Shhh, it’s a secret. * * * We, the audience, see that what appears to be a yoga studio is actually a set piece and that it sits rickety on a darkened stage. A young actress eyes the Yoga teacher in front and holds her Virabhadrasana, Warrior Pose. The man onstage is very calm. Handsome. Older. And more-than-likely married. She assumes that hunk of gold bling on his finger must be a wedding ring. The actress follows the trickle of sweat dripping down his back as Joe Bean begins to chant and stretch himself out like some sort of yogi/clown, Llama, lamma, pizza rama, Vishnu wish you peaceful manna Yin, Yang, Paddywack Hari Hama This little piggy went to market, Mamma Nam Yo ho, Renge Kio yo, Shivananda, Hopscotch Vegananda, 5 Mark Nichols The yoga class laughs and Joe winks.

  • The Strip: Las Vegas and the Symbolic Destruction of Spectacle
    The Strip: Las Vegas and the Symbolic Destruction of Spectacle By Stefan Johannes Al A dissertation submitted in the partial satisfaction of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in City and Regional Planning in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Nezar AlSayyad, Chair Professor Greig Crysler Professor Ananya Roy Professor Michael Southworth Fall 2010 The Strip: Las Vegas and the Symbolic Destruction of Spectacle © 2010 by Stefan Johannes Al Abstract The Strip: Las Vegas and the Symbolic Destruction of Spectacle by Stefan Johannes Al Doctor of Philosophy in City and Regional Planning University of California, Berkeley Professor Nezar AlSayyad, Chair Over the past 70 years, various actors have dramatically reconfigured the Las Vegas Strip in many forms. I claim that behind the Strip’s “reinventions” lies a process of symbolic destruction. Since resorts distinguish themselves symbolically, each new round of capital accumulation relies on the destruction of symbolic capital of existing resorts. A new resort either ups the language within a paradigm, or causes a paradigm shift, which devalues the previous resorts even further. This is why, in the context of the Strip, buildings have such a short lifespan. This dissertation is chronologically structured around the four building booms of new resort construction that occurred on the Strip. Historically, there are periodic waves of new casino resort constructions with continuous upgrades and renovation projects in between. They have been successively theorized as suburbanization, corporatization, Disneyfication, and global branding. Each building boom either conforms to a single paradigm or witnesses a paradigm shift halfway: these paradigms have been theorized as Wild West, Los Angeles Cool, Pop City, Corporate Modern, Disneyland, Sim City, and Starchitecture.

  • John Huxford, “Surveillance, Witnessing and Spectatorship: The
    Proceedings of the Media Ecology Association, Volume 5, 2004 1 Surveillance, Witnessing and Spectatorship: The News and the ‘War of Images’ Dr. John Huxford Villanova University Visual images have long been employed as propaganda, However, new technology and a new emphasis on the visual have elevated this usage. Today the image is as much a weapon as a bullet or a bomb, with news serving as an effective delivery system. In a world of instant media, the signifier has become perhaps even more potent an instrument of war than the acts it signifies. In this context I examine the relationship between photographs and journalism and discuss a series of powerful signifiers, from 911 to grisly images now coming from the campaign in Iraq. The paper explores a typology of functions and epistemological positions that the newsphoto fulfills: surveillance, witnessing and spectatorship. These categories are crucial, I argue, to understanding the way photographs are legitimated in the news, with these functions played off against one an other, not only by journalists but by those intent on terror. EFLECTING on the stream of images emanating from the conflict in Iraq, journalist Christopher Dickey wrote: R The Iraqi horror picture show has become too grim, too bloody, too deeply sinister for most of us to endure….Even a glimpse of these images stirs something monstrous in our collective unconscious, a lingering nightmare of fear and anger, despair and guilt. But in the course of two weeks they’ve become pervasive and invasive. They’re everywhere you look, until you just can’t look anymore.

You provide necessary healthcare services for your neighbors and employment opportunities that contribute to the local economy. In recent years, a growing number of independent community pharmacists have sought to expand their service to the community through elected office at the local and state level, from school boards to state legislatures. It is our hope that other independent community pharmacists will consider serving in elected office. “A good pharmacist, one who takes care of his patients and customers in a proper way, can almost be elected to anything. People trust you and confide in you, and if you treat them right, the image of a pharmacist can help you. Pharmacists are highly respected and respect is the most important thing in the political realm. Pharmacists occupy a position of respect.” --- Former State Representative Calvin Anthony (OK) We know there is much to consider when making this life-altering decision, and in this manual we strive to provide a helpful resource that will aid you in answering many of the questions you will ponder, insights to the time commitment required, and a basic outline of what may be required of you on the campaign.

  • Landscapes of the Social Relations of Production in a Networked Society
    Fast Capitalism ISSN 1930-014X Volume 2 • Issue 1 • 2006 doi:10.32855/fcapital.200601.007 Landscapes of the Social Relations of Production in a Networked Society Robert Goldman, Stephen Papson, Noah Kersey Thus the social relations within which individuals produce, the social relations of production, change, are transformed, with the change and development of the material means of production, the productive forces. The relations of production in their totality constitute what are called the social relations, society, and specifically, a society at a definite stage of historical development, a society with a peculiar and distinctive character (Marx “Wage Labor and Capital” 1849: 207). Each stage of capitalist society constitutes such a totality of relations, subject to a dialectic of historical change in which developments in the material means of production prompt transformations of social relations, and vice versa. These social relations of production “in their totality” include the work relations affected by division of labor, technology, and organizational technique. Such arrangements have historically been stratified by race, gender, age and ethnicity. Another fundamental dimension of capitalist society encompasses the structures imposed by market forces and commodity relations. The formal-legal relations of property ownership and contracts define rights of access to productive resources as well as defining how the surplus is appropriated and by whom. And, the wider relations of production encompass those who are not directly in the labor force - children, retirees, and those who help reproduce the conditions of everyday life (e.g., unpaid housework). People’s social relationships and their ideas about themselves, about nature and the social world may be understood in relation to the ways productive and reproductive activity is organized.
