La complejidad de lo moderno. Una crítica católica entre Carl Schmitt y Augusto Del Noce

2021

n this article I propose to point out some important affinities between Carl Schmitt and Augusto Del Noce. These two important catholic thinkers understood the profound relationship between atheism and technique. This topic is very interesting to understand the "spiritual" genesis of the "affluent society" and, above all, to understand an important aspect that has led to the affirmation of the ideology of neoliberalism. These topics are fundamental to current catholic philosophical thought, which after Vatican CouncilII has to confront Modernity.

‘Full power despite stress’: A discourse analytical examination of the interconnectedness of postfeminism and neoliberalism in the domain of work in …

2013

Stories and images of successful career women and support for women’s advancement in working life have become hallmarks of contemporary postfeminist media culture, and especially of women’s magazines such as Cosmopolitan. While in previous research these features have been seen as signs for a new, popular feminism, more recently they have also been connected to the growing hegemony of neoliberal governance, a mode of power that ultimately aims at the economization of the social and is fundamentally exercised in and through discourse. The aim of this article is to investigate further the interconnectedness of these two phenomena, postfeminism and neoliberalism, in the domain of work, using …

O potrzebie dialogu. Koncepcja zwrotu edukacyjnego w sztuce

2017

This article is about the educational turn in contemporary art. At present, many artists are interested in educational projects—the planning of events in which education is not reduced to an auxiliary role (as is traditional with an exhibition). Simultaneously, however, the artists distance themselves from the school system and are attempting to experiment with education, treating it as an autonomous, alternative cultural practice. The author describes the traits and circumstances of this artistic phenomenon (above all, transformations in the field of socially engaged art, and criticism of the idea of a knowledge-based economy). She analyses the role of pedagogical methods and ideas in arti…

Teaching English as a Non-Imperial Language in an Underprivileged Public School in Spain

2018

This article summarizes the processes and findings of a 2-year collaborative action research (CAR) project that analyzed and aimed to counteract some of the most negative educational effects of English linguistic imperialism in the field of English language teaching (ELT) and, more concretely, in the context of English as a foreign language education in Spain. The CAR investigated the ramifications of this phenomenon in a primary school located in one of the most disadvantaged neighborhoods in the city of València. The pedagogical alternative it embraced in order to reverse the underlying tenets of ELT under present-day neoliberal imperialism consisted in combining art and multimodality thr…

The ‘spirit of the times’: Fast policy for educational reform in Finland

2020

This article examines the nature of neoliberal influences upon educational policy making in the Finnish education system in recent times. The article draws upon key policy documents, government reports, journal articles and media articles about reforms in the early childhood, basic/compulsory school and vocational education and training sectors to evidence these processes. Analytically, these reforms are understood as instances of what has been referred to as ‘fast policy’. Methodologically, we draw upon principles of zeitgeist analysis to reveal the features and effects of these fast policy influences as they relate to educational provision in Finland. These features and effects include i…

Transnational Social Fields

2018

This chapter excavates Bourdieu’s theoretical insights concerning political sociology to develop a theory of transnational structuration processes. The early Bourdieu implicitly imagined the state as a nationally bounded actor. Only later in his career did he begin to grapple with issues such as globalization, transnationalism, and neoliberalism; and it is this later germ of ideas that this chapter develops. Transnational social fields, this chapter argues, are not reducible to institutional or organizational structures. They require a more holistic analysis of institutions and their underpinnings. To provide an example of how Bourdieu’s political sociology can be extended to transnational …
