Summary:
Berlin was once the biggest industrial area in Europe, home to large-scale enterprises like AEG and Siemens. Bewag, the Berlin electricity provider, laid the foundations for a modern power supply together with these companies. Power Stations in Berlin considers numerous local power stations as an integral part of the city's architectural heritage, from the period of industrialization at the beginning of the 20th century until now, giving a comprehensive overview of Berlin as an industrial city in the process. The question of how to reuse these unique plants, is raised; the right balance between preserving the facilities and finding a new economic use for them is crucial. The book includes essays by Klaus Bürgel, Hilmar Bärthel, Hans-Achim Grube, Christina Keseberg, Matthias Dunger, Herbert Strobel, Jörg Haspel, and Hubert Staroste

À mi-chemin du pamphlet et du texte théorique, cet ouvrage pourfend les dévoiements dont le féminisme a fait l'objet.

Summary:
À mi-chemin du pamphlet et du texte théorique, cet ouvrage pourfend les dévoiements dont le féminisme a fait l'objet. Comment le féminisme, jadis pratique utopique et révolutionnaire, a-t-il pu devenir un discours hégémonique parfaitement adapté aux exigences du marché ? Comment ses ennemis d'hier ont-ils pu se l'approprier ? Car aujourd'hui, le féminisme est partout, prétexte à vendre tout et n'importe quoi, des vibromasseurs aux chaussures de luxe en passant bien entendu par soi-même. L'auteure analyse de façon claire, vivante et concise les principaux points d'application d'un féminisme cheval de Troie du néolibéralisme : la consommation, la guerre, le rapport à soi et le marché du travail. Elle souligne qu'en dépit de leur diversité voire de leurs incohérences, les usages actuels du mot " féminisme " participent d'un processus global de marchandisation : les femmes doivent apprendre à " valoriser leurs atouts ", considérer leur corps comme un ensemble de pièces détachées, devenir des mères idéales sans oublier d'aller se vendre sur le marché du travail ni de maîtriser à la perfection l'art de la sexualité. Après la femme-objet, voici la femme-marchandise ! Dans notre époque prétendument post-féministe, les femmes se trouvent donc enfermées, sous couvert d'émancipation, dans une nouvelle forme d'essentialisation et de servitude. En s'appuyant sur des exemples tirés du cinéma, de la philosophie, de l'actualité, de la pornographie et des luttes féministes d'hier et d'aujourd'hui, ce livre montre que l'unidimensionnalité n'est pas une fatalité pour les femmes, et que le combat féministe se trouve non pas derrière nous, mais devant nous.

Summary:
In Picturing Casablanca, Susan Ossman probes the shape and texture of mass images in Casablanca, from posters, films, and videotapes to elections, staged political spectacles, and changing rituals. In a fluid style that blends ethnographic narrative, cultural reportage, and the author's firsthand experiences, Ossman sketches a radically new vision of Casablanca as a place where social practices, traditions, and structures of power are in flux. From Madonna videos and the TV's transformation of social time, to changing gender roles and new ways of producing and disseminating information, the Morocco that Ossman reveals is a telling commentary on the consequences of colonial planning, the influence of modern media, and the rituals of power and representation enacted by the state.

(available in store)
Summary:
Photography’s development as a new form of art and technology coincided with profound changes in the way China engaged with the world in the nineteenth century. The medium evolved in response to war, trade, travel, and a desire for knowledge about an unfamiliar place. "Power and perspective" provides a rich account of the exchanges among photographers, artists, patrons, and subjects in the treaty port cities that connected China and the West. Drawing primarily from the Peabody Essex Museum’s historic and largely unpublished collection of photographs, this generously illustrated volume examines the confrontations and collaborations that shaped the adoption and practice of photography in China. Offering an original reassessment of the colonial legacy of the medium, "Power and perspective" addresses photography’s representations of racial hierarchy and its entanglement with histories of European imperialism in nineteenth-century China.
