Feminine Law Freud Free Speech and the Voice of Desire

Feminine Law Freud Free Speech and the Voice of Desire

Feminine Law: Freud Free Speech and the Voice of Desire explores the conjunction between psychoanalysis and democracy in particular their shared commitments to free speech. In the process it demonstrates how lawful constraints enable an embodied space or gap for the potentially disruptive but also liberating and novel flow of desire and its symbols. This space intuited by the First Amendment as it is by Freud's free association enables personal and collective sovereignty. By naming a feminine law we mark the primacy a space between the conceivable and the inconceivable between knowledge and mystery. What do political free speech and psychoanalytic free association have in common besides the word free? And what do Sigmund Freud and Justice Louis Brandeis share besides a world between two great wars? How is the female body a neglected key to understanding the conditions and contradictions of free discourse? Drs. Jill Gentile and Michael Macrone take up these questions and more in their wide-ranging often passionate exploration of the hidden legacy of Freud and the Founding Fathers. | Feminine Law Freud Free Speech and the Voice of Desire

The Experimental Approach to Free Will Freedom in the Laboratory

The Experimental Approach to Free Will Freedom in the Laboratory

Recently psychologists and neurobiologists have conducted experiments taken to show that human beings do not have free will. Many including a number of philosophers assume that even if science has not decided the free will question yet it is just a matter of time. In The Experimental Approach to Free Will Katherin A. Rogers accomplishes several tasks. First canvasing the literature critical of these recent experiments (or of conclusions drawn from them) and adding new criticisms of her own she shows why these experiments should not undermine belief in human freedom – even robust libertarian freedom. Indeed many of the experiments do not even connect with any philosophical understanding of free will. Through this discussion she generates a long list of problems – ethical as well as practical – facing the attempt to study free will experimentally. With these problems highlighted she shows that even in the distant future supposing the brain sciences to have advanced far beyond where they are today it will likely be impossible to settle the question of free will experimentally. She concludes that since philosophy has not and science cannot settle the question of free will it is more reasonable to suppose that humans do indeed have freedom. Brings together and adds to criticisms of recent experiments (or conclusions drawn from them) which supposedly show that human beings do not have free will Analyzes recent experiments supposedly related to human freedom through the lens of a philosophically informed portrait of a robust libertarian free choice Develops a long list of problems – both practical and ethical – facing the experimental study of human freedom Proposes a thought experiment set in a distant future of advanced brain science to show that it is likely impossible for science ever to settle the question of free will. | The Experimental Approach to Free Will Freedom in the Laboratory

The High Cost of Free Parking Updated Edition

The High Cost of Free Parking Updated Edition

One of the American Planning Association‘s most popular and influential books is finally in paperback with a new preface from the author on how thinking about parking has changed since this book was first published. In this no-holds-barred treatise Donald Shoup argues that free parking has contributed to auto dependence rapid urban sprawl extravagant energy use and a host of other problems. Planners mandate free parking to alleviate congestion but end up distorting transportation choices debasing urban design damaging the economy and degrading the environment. Ubiquitous free parking helps explain why our cities sprawl on a scale fit more for cars than for people and why American motor vehicles now consume one-eighth of the world's total oil production. But it doesn't have to be this way. Shoup proposes new ways for cities to regulate parking namely charge fair market prices for curb parking use the resulting revenue to pay for services in the neighborhoods that generate it and remove zoning requirements for off-street parking. Such measures according to the Yale-trained economist and UCLA planning professor will make parking easier and driving less necessary. Join the swelling ranks of Shoupistas by picking up this book today. You'll never look at a parking spot the same way again. | The High Cost of Free Parking Updated Edition

The Market Photo Workshop in South Africa and the 'Born Free' Generation Remaking Histories

This study presents the history of the Market Photo Workshop (MPW) in Johannesburg and works produced by its new generation of photography students. Founded in 1989 by internationally renowned documentary photographer David Goldblatt the MPW has reflected upon South African political struggles and sociocultural changes since its creation. Its foundation parallels a moment in time when photography was considered a ‘truth telling’ genre and an essential source of documents deployed against the apartheid regime. This book reflects on the evolution of the MPW in the post-apartheid era and explores how its new generation of students engages the photographic tradition of this institution and the revolutionary times that accompanied its creation to question their present moment. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history visual studies photography African studies cultural studies and post-colonial studies. | The Market Photo Workshop in South Africa and the 'Born Free' Generation Remaking Histories

New Directions in the Ethics and Politics of Speech

New Directions in the Ethics and Politics of Speech

This book features new perspectives on the ethics and politics of free speech. Contributors draw on insights from philosophy psychology political theory journalism literature and history to respond to pressing problems involving free speech in liberal societies. Recent years have seen an explosion of academic interest in these topics. However most recent work has focused on constitutional protections for free speech and on issues related to academic freedom and campus politics. The chapters in this volume set their sights more broadly on the non-state problems that we collectively face in attempting to realize a healthy environment for free discourse. The volume’s contributors share the assumption that threats to free speech do not come exclusively from state sources or bad actors but from ordinary strategic situations in which all may be acting in good faith. Contributors take seriously the idea that our current cultural moment provides plenty of reason to be concerned about our intellectual climate and offer new insights for how to make things better. New Directions in the Ethics and Politics of Speech will be of interest to researchers and students working in ethics political philosophy social theory and law.

The Fatal Conceit The Errors of Socialism

The Fatal Conceit The Errors of Socialism

Hayek gives the main arguments for the free-market case and presents his manifesto on the “errors of socialism. ” Hayek argues that socialism has from its origins been mistaken on factual and even on logical grounds and that its repeated failures in the many different practical applications of socialist ideas that this century has witnessed were the direct outcome of these errors. He labels as the “fatal conceit” the idea that “man is able to shape the world around him according to his wishes. ” | The Fatal Conceit The Errors of Socialism

Democracy Religion and Commerce Private Markets and the Public Regulation of Religion

Democracy Religion and Commerce Private Markets and the Public Regulation of Religion

This collection considers the relationship between religion state and market. In so doing it also illustrates that the market is a powerful site for the cultural work of secularizing religious conflict. Though expressed as a simile with religious freedom functioning like market freedom “free market religion” has achieved the status of general knowledge about the nature of religion as either good or bad. It legislates good religion as that which operates according to free market principles: it is private with no formal relationship to government; and personal: a matter of belief and conscience. As naturalized elements of historically contingent and discursively maintained beliefs about religion these criteria have ethical and regulatory force. Thus in culture and law the effect of the metaphor has become instrumental not merely descriptive. This volume seeks to productively complicate and invite further analysis of this easy conflation of democracy religion and the market. It invites scholars from a variety of disciplines to consider more intentionally the extent to which markets are implicated and illuminate the place of religion in public life. The book will be a valuable resource for researchers and academics working in the areas of law and religion ethics and economics. | Democracy Religion and Commerce Private Markets and the Public Regulation of Religion
