Que faire de l’aventure communiste ? En quoi nous concerne-t-elle encore aujourd’hui ? Depuis la chute du mur de Berlin et l’intégration de la Chine et des pays de l’ex-Union soviétique à l’économie mondialisée, on considère souvent l’épisode communiste comme un simple accroc dans le déroulement de l’Histoire, une sorte de régression dans l’avancée irrésistible du(...)

Résumé:
Que faire de l’aventure communiste ? En quoi nous concerne-t-elle encore aujourd’hui ? Depuis la chute du mur de Berlin et l’intégration de la Chine et des pays de l’ex-Union soviétique à l’économie mondialisée, on considère souvent l’épisode communiste comme un simple accroc dans le déroulement de l’Histoire, une sorte de régression dans l’avancée irrésistible du capitalisme. Et pourtant, si le communisme n’est plus l’horizon indépassable de notre temps, comme Sartre a pu un jour le déclarer, la nécessité de repenser le commun, elle, se manifeste avec plus d’insistance que jamais. Pour ceux qui éprouvent, de manière plus ou moins confuse et intermittente, le besoin de renouer avec l’action politique pour contrer l’isolement et l’impuissance générés par la barbarie néolibérale, la question la plus urgente de notre époque serait peut-être : comment sauver le commun du communisme ?

Résumé:
Since the fall of Communism, Russians have struggled to reconcile their social traditions with a flood of Western cultural imports. Contemporary Russian cinema has latched on to the resulting confusion and ambivalence, mining societal upheaval for revolutionary cinematic topics. Yana Hashamova explores this largely uncharted territory in Pride and Panic.

Résumé:
The Posthuman Dada Guide is an impractical handbook for practical living in our posthuman world - all by way of examining the imagined 1916 chess game between Tristan Tzara, the daddy of Dada, and V. I. Lenin, the daddy of communism. This epic game at Zurich's Café de la Terrasse - a battle between radical visions of art and ideological revolution - lasted for a century and may still be going on, although communism appears dead and Dada stronger than ever. As the poet faces the future mass murderer over the chessboard, neither realizes that they are playing for the world. Taking the match as metaphor for two poles of twentieth and twenty-first century thought, politics, and life, Andrei Codrescu has created his own Dadaesque guide to Dada - and to what it can teach us about surviving our ultraconnected present and future.

Résumé:
Brutal concrete hotels, futurist TV towers, heroic statues of workers—this collection of Soviet-era postcards documents the uncompromising landscape of the Eastern Bloc through its buildings and monuments. These are interspersed with quotes from prominent figures of the time, which both support and confound the ideologies presented in the images. In contrast to the photographs of a ruined and abandoned Soviet empire we are accustomed to seeing today, the scenes depicted here publicize the bright future of communism: social housing blocks, palaces of culture and monuments to comradeship. Dating from the 1960s to the 1980s, they offer a nostalgic yet revealing insight into social and architectural values of the time, acting as a window through which we can examine cars, people and, of course, buildings. These postcards, sanctioned by the authorities, were intended to show the world what living in communism looked like.

Résumé:
More than four decades of Communism in Central and Eastern Europe has left deep scars in Europe. The post-1945 cultural fixation of countries in Central and Eastern Europe on the USSR stands in sharp contrast with Western Europes orientation towards the United States. The contradistinctions and similarities between East and West are subject to critical examination in a series of essays in text and image. Many of these subsidiary themes are associated with the city, since the impact of Communism is nowhere more evident than in this urban space. In the planning euphoria and the building of a completely new society on rational and scientific principles we can glimpse a mirroring of the ideas and views of Communist politicians, architects and urban planners. The contemporary phenomenon of the shrinking city calls for solutions which extend beyond restructuring, conservation or regeneration; it is sooner about constructing an identity that can rival Europe and the rest of the world.
