Résumé:
Un spectre hante le roman de Kevin Lambert : le spectre du capitalisme. L’éblouissante Céline Wachowski, architecte de renommée internationale, dévoile enfin le Complexe Webuy, un projet ambitieux et structurant; surtout, le premier grand projet public qu’elle réalise pour Montréal, sa ville. Pourtant, les critiques de la population et de groupes militants ne tardent pas à fuser : on accuse Céline de détruire le tissu social, d’accélérer l’embourgeoisement des quartiers, de péchés plus capitaux encore. L’architecte est prise dans la tourmente et sommée de réagir. C’est la classe dirigeante que Kevin Lambert met en scène ici, fouillant la psyché de ces gens au sommet de leur discipline et qui pour la première fois de leur vie risquent de perdre pied. Quelle fiction se racontent-ils pour justifier leurs privilèges, pour asseoir leur place dans un monde qu’ils ont eux-mêmes bâti ? Dans une prose leste et immersive, «Que notre joie demeure» fait entendre les points de vue et pensées secrètes de ses personnages, tout en peignant le portrait clairvoyant du Montréal d’aujourd’hui.

Offering a counter-history of how economic growth emerged in the context of colonialism, fossil-fueled industrialization, and capitalist modernity, ''The future is degrowth'' argues that the ideology of growth conceals the rising inequalities and ecological destructions associated with capitalism, and points to(...)

Résumé:
Economic growth isn’t working, and it cannot be made to work. Offering a counter-history of how economic growth emerged in the context of colonialism, fossil-fueled industrialization, and capitalist modernity, ''The future is degrowth'' argues that the ideology of growth conceals the rising inequalities and ecological destructions associated with capitalism, and points to desirable alternatives to it. Not only in society at large, but also on the left, we are held captive by the hegemony of growth. Even proposals for emancipatory Green New Deals or postcapitalism base their utopian hopes on the development of productive forces, on redistributing the fruits of economic growth and technological progress. Yet growing evidence shows that continued economic growth cannot be made compatible with sustaining life and is not necessary for a good life for all. This book provides a vision for postcapitalism beyond growth. Building on a vibrant field of research, it discusses the political economy and the politics of a non-growing economy. It charts a path forward through policies that democratise the economy, ''now-topias'' that create free spaces for experimentation, and counter-hegemonic movements that make it possible to break with the logic of growth. Degrowth perspectives offer a way to step off the treadmill of an alienating, expansionist, and hierarchical system.

Résumé:
A fresh interpretation of Jeremy Bentham, finding that his “radical foolery” embodied a social ethics that was revolutionary for its time. Jeremy Bentham (1748–1832) is best remembered today as the founder of utilitarianism (a philosophy infamously abused by the Victorians) and the conceiver of the Panopticon, the circular prison house in which all prisoners could be seen by an unseen observer—later seized upon by Michel Foucault as the apotheosis of the neoliberal control society. In this volume in the Untimely Meditation series, Christian Welzbacher offers a new interpretation of Bentham, arguing that his “radical foolery” (paraphrasing Goethe's characterization of Bentham) actually embodied a social ethics that was new for its time and demands proper historical contextualization rather than retroactive analysis from the vantage point of late capitalism. Welzbacher provides just such an analysis, offering an account of the two great utilitarian projects that occupied Bentham all his life: the Panopticon and the Auto-Icon.

Résumé:
How do we design our cities when our most intimate experiences are incessantly tracked and our feelings become the base of new modes of production that prioritize the immaterial over the material? Since the 2008 financial crisis, lists of well-being indicators, happiness indexes, and quality-of-life rankings have become viral. Concurrently, the emotional data presented in these surveys- including perceptions on questions such as loneliness, friendship and intimate fears- feed an expanding political agenda of happiness and a new form of market whose most decisive asset is "affect." 'Our Happy Life' investigates the architectural implications of this trend by dissecting and questioning the political, economic, and emotional conditions that generate space today. Organized as a visual narrative with critical readings by Will Davies, Daniel Fujiwara, Simon Fujiwara, Ingo Niermann, Deane Simpson, and Mirko Zardini, this book reveals architecture, city, and landscape as contested surfaces, caught between the intagible guidelines of happiness indexes, the new marketplace of emotions, and the relentless ideology of positivity.
