French philosophers Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari worked together extensively from the 1960s into the 1990s, and the resulting "intersections" of their different sensibilities and modes of knowing fueled powerful alternatives to Marxian and psychoanalytic orthodoxies. Yet readers approaching Deleuze and Guattari's works are often frustrated by the paucity or unfamiliarity of specific examples that might clarify their complex arguments. This timely volume "animates" key concepts and terminology by applying them to provocative readings of literary texts, films, and cultural phenomena--from Apocalypse Now to Cajun music and dance. Drawing extensively from primary and critical sources to elucidate Deleuze and Guattari's theoretical contributions, Stivale reinvigorates their "two-fold thought" for use as an analytical tool in the humanities and social sciences. The book also offers a clear introduction to the precollaborative phase of each thinker's work, an interview Stivale conducted with Guattari, and the first-time English translation of a 1967 essay by Deleuze.

La 4e de couverture indique : "Le Conseil et le Bureau du commerce constituent l’instance principale de l’administration royale du commerce au XVIIIe siècle. Bien que le roi n’assiste jamais aux séances hebdomadaires, cette institution, créée en 1700 et dissoute en 1791, a contribué à modeler l’économie française de l’époque. Installée au sommet d’une pyramide institutionnelle, elle est étroitement associée à l’élaboration et à l’application du droit économique, exerçant un véritable pouvoir par procuration en matière d’édiction de la norme. La très influente présence, en son sein, de députés du commerce la crédibilise aux yeux des forces vives de l...
Avec le front militaire et le front social, un troisième front, celui des finances de guerre, s'est ouvert en 1914. Par les ruptures et les bouleversements qu'il a engendrés en matière de financement et d'équilibres économiques et monétaires mondiaux, il constitue le véritable tournant du xxe siècle, celui de la dette publique et de l'inflation pour la plupart des pays belligérants. Ce thème a fait l'objet de la première manifestation scientifique du cycle des quatre journées d'études consacrées au ministère des Finances dans la Grande Guerre et dont cet ouvrage collectif est le fruit. Concentré sur la mobilisation des ressources financières des principaux pays belligérants...
La 4e de couverture indique : "La création de l’Office national interprofessionnel du blé (ONIB) par le gouvernement du Front populaire à l’été 1936 est l’accomplissement d’un élément du programme socialiste, mais il est surtout une réponse à la grave crise du marché du blé qui frappe le pays. Cette crise agricole de surproduction à l’échelle mondiale entraîne en France, malgré la mobilisation parlementaire, des réponses politiques longtemps tâtonnantes, qui ne parviennent pas à lutter contre les fraudes et les scandales provoqués par la spéculation. Ainsi la loi sur le prix minimum de l’été 1933 est un échec tant les intérêts des producteurs, des consomm...
The importance of viticulture and the winemaking socio-economic sector is acknowledged worldwide. The most renowned winemaking regions show very specific environmental characteristics, where climate usually plays a central role. Considering the strong influence of weather and climatic factors on grapevine yields and berry quality attributes, climate change may indeed significantly impact this crop. Recent trends already point to a pronounced increase in growing season mean temperatures, as well as changes in precipitation regimes, which have been influencing wine typicity across some of the most renowned winemaking regions worldwide. Moreover, several climate scenarios give evidence of enhan...
