Summary:
C’est par l’analyse de la société que l’on peut comprendre la ville. Les grandes régions urbaines contemporaines – les métapoles – matérialisent les caractéristiques de la société hypertexte. Elles en sont comme l’avant-garde. Aussi, un nouveau capitalisme cognitif et écologique apparaît où l’individu-roi peut «?naviguer?» entre les situations, les connaissances, les(...)

Summary:
C’est par l’analyse de la société que l’on peut comprendre la ville. Les grandes régions urbaines contemporaines – les métapoles – matérialisent les caractéristiques de la société hypertexte. Elles en sont comme l’avant-garde. Aussi, un nouveau capitalisme cognitif et écologique apparaît où l’individu-roi peut «?naviguer?» entre les situations, les connaissances, les croyances, les milieux sociaux… accroissant les différenciations sociales. Comment ces processus façonnent-ils la société, et donc la ville ? François Ascher ne répond pas à cette question en utilisant les approches classiques. Au contraire, les siennes partent de différents points de vue – la politique, l’alimentation, la vie quotidienne… en laissant sa place à l’imprévu, qui est l’une des caractéristiques de notre modernité. Il faut aussi associer la connaissance et l’action, le débat scientifique et le débat politique. C’est à cette démarche que nous invite François Ascher dans ce livre, présenté et conçu par Alain Bourdin, qui alterne des genres différents : articles scientifiques, exposés pédagogiques, conférences dans le monde professionnel de l’urbain, interventions dans le débat public et politique. Un livre à l’image des propositions hypertextes de son auteur.

Summary:
Is global emancipation a lost cause? Are universal values outdated relics of an earlier age? In the postmodern world, ideologies of all kinds have been cast in doubt. In this combative new work, renowned theorist Slavoj Zizek takes on the reigning postmodern agenda with a manifesto for several "lost causes". From a provocative redemption of Heideggers engagement with the Third Reich as "a right step in the wrong direction" to reasserting class struggle as the underlying reality of global capitalism, to a defense of the emancipatory legacy of Christianity against New Age spiritualism, Zizek confronts the failures of contemporary theory and proposes unexpected resolutions.

Summary:
In the age of the Anthropocene—an era characterized by human-caused climate disaster—catastrophes and dystopias loom. ''The Anthropocene cookbook'' takes our planetary state of emergency as an opportunity to seize the moment to imagine constructive change and new ideas. How can we survive in an age of constant environmental crises? How can we thrive? ''The Anthropocene cookbook'' answers these questions by presenting a series of investigative art and design projects that explore how art, food, and creative thinking can prepare us for future catastrophes. This cookbook of ideas rethinks our eating habits and traditions, challenges our food taboos, and proposes new recipes for humanity's survival.
