Modernity And Consumption: Theory, Politics, And The Public In Singapore And Malaysia

The Enlightenment theorists involved in the public/private debate exposed the logical fallacies of theology and the philosophical weaknesses of metaphysics but left little room for understanding contemporary modes of consumption. What does it mean to be a consumer in the early 21st century? Do modern markets provide real choices for consumers in neoliberal capitalist democracies? Or are consumers ironically slaves to their own patterns of consumption? Rejecting Habermas' conceptualizations in The Structural Transformation of the Public Sphere (1991), Rappa offers an examination of modernity and consumption with a non-Marxist, modernity-Resistance-theoretical frame (mRf). He argues that late ...

The Village and Its Discontents

The Village and Its Discontents: Meaning and Criticism in Late Modernity is a hopeful collection of essays about villages in Southeast Asia and across the world. The "village" is an idea, a construct, and a way of organising society. Villages constitute the basic unit of analyses in the arts, humanities and the social sciences, and these issues are presented through the collection of essays featured in this book. The contributors hope to generate interest in studying villages, to understand the meanings that attach themselves to the concept of the village, and to gain greater insights into multidisciplinary knowledge and analyses in today's highly developed global society.

Critique and Feminist Theology

Critique and Feminist Theology strives to reinterpret Elisabeth SchÃ?1⁄4ssler Fiorenza's concepts of critique and community from postfoundationalist perspective. In doing this in detail, the author explores her concepts of subjectivity, and the women-church and the ekklesia of wo/men. This groundbreaking book seeks to arbitrate and federate today's two polar issues of the critique and the embrace of the others, which today is socially called for from a post-foundationalist perspective. The new fourth feminist wave is being heralded as focued on communal critique. The author criticizes Fiorenza's concepts of subject and community, presenting a new paradigm to overcome their limitations while constructing better subjectivity and relationships through post-foundationalist reinterpretation.

Befreiende Perspektiven, Vol. 8) [Subject: Feminist Studies, Gender Studies, Theology, Religious Studies]
