The Peace of Illusions: American Grand Strategy from 1940 to the Present The Peace of Illusions: American Grand Strategy from 1940 to the Present
Жанр: Прочие Страниц: 290 Дата загрузки: 15 июня 2009
   «In a provocative book about American hegemony, Christopher Layne outlines his belief that U.S. foreign policy has been consistent in its aims for more than sixty years and that the current Bush administration clings to mid-twentieth-century tactics-to no good effect. What should the nation's grand strategy look like for the next several decades? The end of the cold war profoundly and permanently altered the international landscape, yet we have seen no parallel change in the aims and shape of U.S. foreign policy. The Peace of Illusions intervenes in the ongoing debate about American grand strategy and the costs and benefits of «American empire.» Layne urges the desirability of a strategy he calls «offshore balancing»: rather than wield power to dominate other states, the U.S. government should engage in diplomacy to balance large states against one another. The United States should intervene, Layne asserts, only when another state threatens, regionally or locally, to destroy the established balance. Drawing on extensive archival research, Layne traces the form and aims of U.S. foreign policy since 1940, examining alternatives foregone and identifying the strategic aims of different administrations. His offshore-balancing notion, if put into practice with the goal of extending the «American Century,» would be a sea change in current strategy. Layne has much to say about present-day governmental decision making, which he examines from the perspectives of both international relations theory and American diplomatic history.»

Sexualidades Disidentes En La Narrativa Cubana Contemporanea Sexualidades Disidentes En La Narrativa Cubana Contemporanea
Автор: Жанр: Прочие Год: 2012 Страниц: 208 Дата загрузки: 18 июля 2013
   Este libro analiza las discontinuidades de los postulados ideologicos del sistema revolucionario cubano, en un corpus representativo de la narrativa cubana contemporanea, desde 1990 hasta la actualidad. Este ensayo se ocupa del estudio de subjetividades sexuales alternativas como instrumentos desestabilizadores de la hegemonia nacional. Asimismo, estos textos desarticulan y, a menudo, difuminan los referentes nacionales, con el proposito de legitimar estas identidades marginales, previamente consideradas como incompatibles con la moral revolucionaria. En consecuencia, este volumen resalta las contradicciones de aparatos politicos y culturales que han percibido historicamente las sexualidades alternativas como injuriosas, aunque estas fueran utilizadas como el opuesto necesario que afirmaba y legitimaba el poder. El periodo estudiado ha coincidido con el surgimiento de una apertura gradual en material sexual que sugeriria cierto afan de adaptacion oficial y controlada, con miras a nuevas realidades nacionales y globales. En este sentido, estas practicas culturales contemporaneas se apuntalan, mas que nunca, como herramientas de construccion de una Cuba posible.

   An explosion of little architectural magazines in the 1960s and 1970s instigated a radical transformation in architectural culture, as the magazines acted as a site of innovation and debate. Clip/Stamp/Foldtakes stock of seventy little magazines from this period that were published in over a dozen cities. Coined in the early twentieth century to designate progressive literary journals, the term little magazine was remobilized during the 1960s to grapple with the contemporary proliferation of independent architectural periodicals. The terms little and magazine are not taken at face value. In addition to short-lived radical magazines, Clip/Stamp/Foldincludes pamphlets and building instruction manuals along with professional magazines that experienced moments of littleness, influenced by the graphics and intellectual concerns of their self-published contemporaries. Beatriz Colomina is Professor of Architecture and Founding Director of the Program in Media and Modernity at Princeton University.

Revelations in Colour: Rossica № 7/8 Revelations in Colour: Rossica № 7/8
Жанр: Прочие Дата загрузки: 7 декабря 2009
   This issue of ROSSICA is dedicated to two great Russian artists, Dionisy and Vasily Kandinsky who were divided by four centuries. Both were iconic figures of their time, if Kandisky represents the formation of abstract art, Dionisy epitomised the school of Moscow Icon painting in early 16th century Russia. Both were fascinated by the spirituality of art, both manifested their apocalyptic vision through colour. The issue investigates how Kandinsky‘s theory of the symbolism of colours appears to stem from the medieval mysticism of Dionisy’s frescos. This issue has the most extensive article, ever to be published in English, on Dionisy’s world famous frescos at the Ferapontov Monastery in Northern Russia. Also in this issue: Andrew Moore tells the intriguing story of the Walpole collection and of its connection to the Hermitage Museum in St Petersburg. Ekaterina Andreeva analyses the medieval tradition of the bestiary in movable objects created by contemporary artists Olga and Alexander Florensky.

Come donna innamorata Come donna innamorata
Автор: Жанр: Прочие Страниц: 175 Дата загрузки: 10 декабря 2009
   Come si può continuare a scrivere quando la morte ti ha sottratto la tua Musa? E questo l'interrogativo che, l'8 giugno 1290, tormenta Dante Alighieri, giovane poeta ancora alla ricerca di una sua voce, davanti alle spoglie di Beatrice Portinari. Da quel momento tutto cambierà: la sua vita come la sua poesia. Percorrendo le strade di Firenze, Dante rievoca le vicissitudini di un amore segnato dal destino, il primo incontro e l'ultimo sguardo, la malìa di una passione in virtù della quale ha avuto ispirazione e fama. E sgomento, il giovane poeta; e smarrito. Ma la sorte gli riserva altri strali. Mentre le trame della politica fiorentina minacciano dapprima i suoi affetti — dal rapporto con la moglie Gemma all'amicizia fraterna con Guido Cavalcanti — e poi la sua stessa vita, Dante Alighieri fa i conti con le tentazioni del potere e la ferita del tradimento, con l'aspirazione alla gloria letteraria e il timore di non riuscire a comporre il suo capolavoro... E un Dante intimo, rivelato nella sua fragilità ma anche nella potenza della sua visione del mondo, quello che Marco Santagata mette in scena in un romanzo che restituisce le atmosfere, le parole, le inquietudini di un Medioevo vivido e vicino. Il sommo poeta in tutta la sua umanità: lacerato dall'amore, tormentato dall'ambizione, ardentemente contemporaneo.

   Through more than 50 portraits of inspiring people who tell the story behind their tattoos, photographer Ralf Mitsch delves into a personal fascination with adorning ones own body with permanent ink. As a teenager in the 1980s, he noticed how those who had tattoos generally came from social strata with little to do with ruling class norms, or just wanted to rebel. Their decorated skin told a kind of life story in an ever-changing patchwork. Nowadays, tattoos are a fashion item, worn by people from all walks of life. A person covered in tattoos is a painting, full of surprises. Mitsch wants to get under the skin and discover the real motivation: is it about documenting their lives, or simply an addiction?
