This book is open access under a CC BY license. This interdisciplinary book contains 22 essays and interventions on rest and restlessness, silence and noise, relaxation and work. It draws together approaches from artists, literary scholars, psychologists, activists, historians, geographers and sociologists who challenge assumptions about how rest operates across mind, bodies, and practices. Rest’s presence or absence affects everyone. Nevertheless, defining rest is problematic: both its meaning and what it feels like are affected by many socio-political, economic and cultural factors. The authors open up unexplored corners and experimental pathways into this complex topic, with contributio...

Molti hanno dell’anarchia una idea assai superficiale, se non del tutto distorta. La propaganda martellante da parte dello Stato, e l’approccio passionale e irrazionale di molti auto-proclamati anarchici, hanno minato alla base l’anarchia come concezione e come pratica. Oggi, in una fase storica di profonda crisi dello Stato territoriale, è tempo di riportare alla luce alcuni scritti che, nonostante il passare del tempo, mantengono una freschezza e una lucidità straordinarie, e che per questo costituiranno forse motivo di disturbo per molti anarchici tradizionalisti e anti-anarchici viscerali. Libertaria è il più ambizioso progetto antologico mai portato avanti sul tema dell’anarchia. I trecento saggi contenuti in questa collezione di cinque volumi mostrano non solo che la concezione e la pratica anarchica sono attualmente più che mai valide, ma ci offrono anche la possibilità di riflettere sulla crisi e sulla degenerazione di un potere dominante che non ha più ragione di essere.

Natürlich, nackt, gesund

Vegetarische Ernährung, alternativmedizinische Verfahren und ein ausgeprägter Fitnesskult boomen. Mit ihrem Appell, dass sich jede und jeder selbst optimieren solle und möglichst gesund und natürlich leben müsse, nahm die um 1900 entstandene Lebensreform viele dieser Diskurse und Praktiken vorweg. In den 1970er Jahren verbreiteten sich lebensreformerische Ideen und das Ziel einer umfassenden Gesellschaftsreform zunehmend im Alternativmilieu. Eva Locher beschreibt erstmals die Entwicklung der Lebensreform in der Schweiz nach 1945 aus transnationaler Perspektive. Im Zentrum ihrer kultur- und sozialgeschichtlich ausgerichteten Studie stehen Ernährungsreform, Naturheilkunde und Freikörperkultur. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/

The Peckham Experiment, conducted between 1935 and 1950 in the London Pioneer Health Centre, was one of the most talked-about social experiments of the 20th century. Families from the South London neighbourhood of Peckham were invited to use the facilities of a radiantly modern building. They were encouraged to freely choose and organize their leisure activities, taking advantage of a swimming pool, a gymnasium, and a self-service cafeteria. In doing so, both their health status and interaction with other members of the nascent centre-community were closely observed by a team of physicians. The first research monograph on the history of the experiment building on archival sources, this book ...
