Speculative Architectures after Minoritarian Futurisms (Routledge Research in Architecture)

Speculative Architectures after Minoritarian Futurisms is a work of architectural theory which understands architecture as a practice of speculation analogous…

to science fiction. While it might seem immediately obvious, especially given the discipline's legacy of fantastical invention and commitment to "the future," this book argues that this hypothetical conjunction offers a highly sophisticated critical perspective on the discipline, arguing that the only way to deal with the complex challenges of the present is through processes of speculation and ethical commitment to imagining futures evinced in minoritarian futurisms.This book reads architecture from the perspective of the recent florescence of futurisms—from Afro-futurism to xeno-feminism—with an attention to how they produce a different image of architecture. In understanding architecture as speculative practice, the book also suggests understanding the architect by analogy to the author of science fiction. Learning from queer and feminist perspectives, this method of "science fictioning" refuses to take the terms now defining the discipline as totalising and immutable and investigates the unique subjectivities, positions, and responsibilities that might be imagined as the architect-to-come.This book will be of interest to researchers and students of architectural theory, science fiction studies, design futures, and global futurisms.

Political disinformation, broadly understood as disinformation relating to matters of public interest, presents a pervasive challenge in today’s information landscape.…

This book argues that the state can, and indeed has a duty to, regulate the phenomenon of political disinformation in a holistic manner, while both preserving and safeguarding freedom of expression, in particular by providing for a suitable combination of correction and sanction mechanisms. The book builds on relevant analytical and normative insights from the field of political philosophy and uses the legal framework of the Council of Europe as its main point of reference. It begins by dissecting key concepts underpinning the ongoing scholarly and policy discourse on disinformation, clarifying the meaning and scope of ‘freedom’ in general, and ‘freedom of expression’ in particular, as well as ‘disinformation’ in general, and ‘political disinformation’ in particular. This conceptual groundwork in turn helps make out the case for regulating political disinformation and informs the choice of the suggested regulatory strategies. The book promises to be a valuable resource for academics, judges and policymakers, particularly those working in the areas of human rights law, media law, public law, legal philosophy, media studies, communication studies and information science.

The third part of the epic autobiography of Chateaubriand, the aristocratic Frenchman who lived through the beginning of the French…

Revolution and who would become the founder of the Romantic movement in Europe, now in a new, unabridged English translation—the first in a century.In 1815—with the Napoleonic era at an end and royalty restored—François-René de Chateaubriand seemed poised, along with the Bourbon family he'd long supported, to wield unprecedented power. Already one of France's most celebrated writers, he now became an ambassador and statesman of the French kingdom. Yet as passionate about royalty as Chateaubriand was in principle, in reality he was a recalcitrant subject. A defender of the constitution and of freedom of the press, he quarreled constantly with Louis XVIII and Charles X and eventually tendered his resignation—just in time for the July Revolution, which put an end to Bourbon rule and allowed Chateaubriand to go back to praising the family, now safely exiled to the realm of the ideal. In the third volume of Alex Andriesse's new translation of Memoirs from Beyond the Grave, Chateaubriand writes about international politics, a papal conclave, and the revolutionary strife of 1830 with undiminished flair. And he remains one of the great masters—perhaps unequaled in this—of literary digression. Readers will gladly accompany him on walks around Paris and Rome, as he reflects on storms and ruins, moonlight and mortality.

love, and mother-daughter relationships, perfect for fans of Spells for Forgetting and Practical Magic.The Cole women are cursed. Each generation will birth a daughter, lose their love, and, as surely as the tide beats against the rocky shore, take her own life by giving herself to the sea. For generations, the Cole women have lived as outcasts, maintaining a lighthouse on a small island off the coast of New Hampshire. Ever since their ancestor was accused of witchcraft and cast into the sea hundreds of years prior, the islanders have ostracized the Coles, distrusting their rumored magic and their control of the lighthouse. Despite their mistreatment, the Cole women are compelled to remain on the island because they know that if a Cole woman does not light the beacon on Juniper Island, anyone who is out at sea will be drowned. Out of guilt and obligation, the Cole women live out their solitary lives on the island, knowing someday their recompense for protecting the people from the sea will be to die in the sea themselves. Told in three interwoven timelines in the late twentieth century, The Curse of the Cole Women unravels the lives of three women who struggle with their relationships with each other as they contend with the reality of their fates—is it truly a curse, or is it generational madness that drives Cole women to the sea? Readers will be swept into this evocative and moving story about challenging misogyny, finding community, and struggling with fate.

Long overdue art catalog for the New Mexican Chicano movement of the 1970s. Vibrant art by activist Chicanx creatives fills…

an enormous gap in the history of art from the movement that blossomed in the 1960s and 1970s.The decade between 1970 and 1980 marks an important period in the Chicana and Chicano Movement in New Mexico known simply as the movimiento. Artists from all over the state played important roles in the movement by providing art, participating in political discourse, and organizing actions. However, while some activists and organizers, such as Dolores Huerta, are known and celebrated nationally, most of these artists have gone unrecognized. Not only have they been overlooked in the art history and discourse of New Mexico, they have also gone unrecognized in the discussion of Chicano art history nationally. Voces del Pueblo begins to repair this gap in the history of the Chicana and Chicano art movement. Printed in color and black and white, the book showcases nearly two hundred images, including work by six New Mexico artists as well as historical photos of the movement. Readers will also find interviews with each of these artists and contextualizing essays by the cocurators of the National Hispanic Cultural Center exhibit, Ray Hernández-Durán and Irene Vásquez, as well as scholars, such as Phillip B. (Felipe) Gonzales, Howard Griego, and Sonja Elena Gandert. The result is an incomparable look at art history in New Mexico and the importance of New Mexican artists in the Chicana and Chicano Movement.
