From Tarde to Deleuze and Foucault

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2017-07-20

  • Publisher: Springer

This book posits that a singular paradigm in social theory can be discovered by reconstructing the conceptual grammar of Gabriel Tarde’s micro-sociology and by understanding the ways in which Gilles Deleuze’s micro-politics and Michel Foucault’s micro-physics have engaged with it. This is articulated in the infinite social multiplicity-invention-imitation-opposition-open system. Guided by infinitist ontology and an epistemology of infinitesimal difference, this paradigm offers a micro-socio-logic capable of producing new ways of understanding social life and its vicissitudes. In the field of social theory, this can be called the infinitesimal revolution.

Reintroducing Gabriel Tarde

This book offers a new introduction to the thought of Gabriel Tarde, highlighting the continuing relevance, and even the novelty, of both his general theoretical approach and many of his specific analyses. Showing that Tarde elaborates a comprehension of the social that was received with difficulty in his time but is increasingly akin to ours, it demonstrates that the infinitesimal sociology offered to us by Tarde provides a framework through which we can understand a whole range of social phenomena. With attention to social networks, public opinion, innovation, diffusion, virality and virtuality—all of which were topics addressed by Tarde himself—the author clarifies and elaborates upon Tarde’s central theses on the multiple, differential, infinitesimal and infinite nature of both the social and the subjective. An examination of the importance of a figure whose work looked ahead to our own age, Reintroducing Gabriel Tarde will appeal to scholars and students of social sciences and social theory with interests in contemporary social thought.

Masas criminales

  • Categories: Law

Este libro aborda un tema hasta cierto punto olvidado por la criminología actual: el de los delitos colectivos o, más exactamente, el de las multitudes criminales. Olvido curioso, pues fue una de las grandes preocupaciones de los heraldos de la criminología “científica”, desde Scipio Sighele a Gabriel Tarde. Así, el potencial deletéreo y destructivo de las muchedumbres enfervorizadas, constituyó en Europa una preocupación política de primera magnitud en el siglo XIX, sobre todo desde la desfavorable semblanza de Hyppolite Taine sobre la Revolución Francesa, hasta la célebre presentación de la “psicología de las masas” por Gustave Le Bon. La criminología, por ello, heredó el “gran miedo burgués” ante el ascenso de las multitudes; de hecho, tendió a observarlas como si estuviesen fatalmente comprometidas con el desorden social generalizado y el delito. Sobre la construcción de esta perspectiva, que vincula al discurso criminológico con la naciente psicología social, se extiende ampliamente la presente obra.

'A New Spirit in Business is not a sober 'scientific treatise, ' but rather an account of a consciousness change through which the new concepts we so badly need come to light. Their book is both informative and autobiographical-and it is a revelation.I can promise that [reading] this book will be an experience that could change the reader's life."-Ervin Laszlo In the world of business and finance, everything revolves around the economy. But what does the economy revolve around? Journalist Martina Köhler and Swiss entrepreneur Hans Jecklin try to answer this question with the insightful A New Spirit in Business. Whereas several books have been written on companies' social responsibility, stakeholder strategy, and corporate ethics, Köhler and Jecklin tackle it from a different perspective-a human one. By elaborating on the essential features of an integral economy and how to deal with abundance in life, Köhler and Jecklin show how the spiritual and economic sides of business complement each other. Using examples from everyday life, dialogues, and exercises, the relationship between money and spirit takes an innovative shape.

Am anderen Zeit-Ort

Was war DDR-Literatur wirklich, und wie war dieser eigentümliche historische Zeit-Ort beschaffen, der sie – vier lange Jahrzehnte und auf engem Raum – prägte? Wen interessiert heute noch die Literatur aus der DDR? Das Feld der deutschsprachigen Literatur hat sich gegenüber dem Wendejahr 1989/90 mit einer Rasanz verändert, die kein Mensch auch nur annähernd hätte voraussagen können. Die literarischen Koryphäen aus dem Westen wie aus dem Osten leben nicht mehr. Vor allem aber hat der massenhafte Zustrom von jungen Migrantinnen und Migranten die Deutsch schreibende Autorenschaft so gravierend verändert, dass die Divergenzen zwischen westdeutschen und ostdeutschen Literaturproduzent...

The Anti-Journalist

In turn-of-the-century Vienna, Karl Kraus created a bold new style of media criticism, penning incisive satires that elicited both admiration and outrage. Kraus’s spectacularly hostile critiques often focused on his fellow Jewish journalists, which brought him a reputation as the quintessential self-hating Jew. The Anti-Journalist overturns this view with unprecedented force and sophistication, showing how Kraus’s criticisms form the center of a radical model of German-Jewish self-fashioning, and how that model developed in concert with Kraus’s modernist journalistic style. Paul Reitter’s study of Kraus’s writings situates them in the context of fin-de-siècle German-Jewish intelle...

Hegel-Studien Band 53/54

Im Jahr 2020 warten die Hegel-Studien mit einem Doppelband auf – und das nicht von ungefähr, denn in diesem Jahr gilt es ein Doppeljubiläum zu feiern. Am 27. August jährt sich Hegels Geburtstag zum 250. Mal und vor 200 Jahren sind Hegels »Grundlinien der Philosophie des Rechts« zuerst erschienen, eines seiner bekanntesten, umstrittensten und vermutlich auch einflussreichsten Werke, das in seiner Diagnostik der Moderne im ganzen Spektrum rechtlicher, moralischer, sozialer, ökonomischer und politischer Motive bis heute nichts von seiner Anziehungskraft verloren hat. Der Jubiläumsband enthält – neben den Rubriken »Perspektiven der Forschung«, Texte und Dokumente«, »Literaturberi...

The response to neoliberal globalisation in Central Europe has led to populism arising from its brutal transition to capitalism. Kalmar uses examples from popular culture to sport to reject as racist the idea that Central Europe’s cultures are incompatible with liberal democracy.
