Summary:
Investigating three case studies, that involve economic redevelopment, historic preservation, and redistricting in San Diego, New York, and Los Angeles, Saito illustrates the enduring presence of racial considerations and inequality in public policy. Individuals and groups who may sincerely characterize themselves as free of racial prejudice still participate, though perhaps unwittingly, in practices that have racialized outcomes.

Summary:
One hundred years ago, French troops fired tear gas grenades into German trenches. Designed to force people out from behind barricades and trenches, tear gas causes burning of the eyes and skin, tearing, and gagging. Chemical weapons are now banned from war zones. But today, tear gas has become the most commonly used form of “less-lethal” police force. In 2011, the year(...)

Summary:
One hundred years ago, French troops fired tear gas grenades into German trenches. Designed to force people out from behind barricades and trenches, tear gas causes burning of the eyes and skin, tearing, and gagging. Chemical weapons are now banned from war zones. But today, tear gas has become the most commonly used form of “less-lethal” police force. In 2011, the year that protests exploded from the Arab Spring to Occupy Wall Street, tear gas sales tripled. Most tear gas is produced in the United States, and many images of protestors in Tahrir Square showed tear gas canisters with “Made in USA” printed on them, while Britain continues to sell tear gas to countries on its own human rights blacklist.

Summary:
Odyssée 2.0 est un parcours photographique librement inspiré du mythe d’Homère qui suit les pérégrinations d’Ulysse au sein de la Technopolis, une « Smart City » fictive et dystopique. À travers une série de mises en scène reprenant les étapes-clés de l’Odyssée d’Homère, ce travail aborde les problématiques inhérentes à la prolifération des technologies numériques. Dans un parti pris photographique reposant sur le choix de l’argentique et des trucages low tech, notre anti-héros explore plusieurs facettes de nos vies connectées telles que l’économie de surveillance, la banalisation des drones, la sexualité virtuelle ou encore la police prédictive. Ce projet éditorial conjugue ainsi les formes d’expression et les temporalités pour inviter à une réflexion critique sur la «technologisation» croissante du contrôle social.

For too long, representations of climate action in the mainstream media have been white-washed, green-washed and diluted to be made compatible with capitalism. In ''It’s Not That Radical'', Loach addresses head-on the issues at the root of the climate crisis.

Summary:
For too long, representations of climate action in the mainstream media have been white-washed, green-washed and diluted to be made compatible with capitalism. In ''It’s Not That Radical'', Loach addresses head-on the issues at the root of the climate crisis. As Loach shows, we are living in an economic system which pursues profit above all else; harmful, oppressive systems that heavily contribute to the climate crisis, and environmental consequences that have been toned down to the masses. Tackling the climate crisis requires us to visit the roots of poverty, capitalist exploitation, police brutality, and legal injustice. Climate justice offers the real possibility of huge leaps towards racial equality and collective liberation as it aims to dismantle the very foundations of these issues.

Cet ouvrage démonstratif et pédagogique a également pour vocation de faire la lumière sur une pratique souvent réservée à des initiés : la création typographique, et ce grâce à une quinzaine d'études de cas largement illustrées consacrées aux plus grandes marques.

Summary:
One of the defining paintings of British Pop art, Richard Hamilton's Swingeing London 67(f) depicts two men--Mick Jagger and Hamilton's art dealer, Robert Fraser--handcuffed together in the back of a police van. The image is taken from a newspaper photograph that shows the two being driven from Lewes prison to Chichester Magistrates Court following their June 1967 arrest for possession of drugs. Andrew Wilson views Swingeing London 67 (f) as history painting, to be understood in the context of the struggle against the British state's attempt--aided and abetted by the popular press--to repress any expression of personal liberation. Hamilton's Pop art idiom of figuration and media images was his way of refusing the demands of an old aesthetic order.
