This is a review article of the following five recent studies on populism: 1) Ruth Wodak’s The Politics of Fear: What Right-Wing Populist Discourses Mean (Sage, 2015); 2) Benjamin Moffitt’s The Global Rise of Populism: Performance, Political Style and Representation (Stanford University Press, 2016); 3) Cas Mudde and Cristóbal Rovira Kaltwasser’s Populism: A Very Short Introduction (Oxford University Press, 2017); 4) Jan-Werner Müller’s What is Populism? (University of Pennsylvania Press, 2016); and 5) John B. Judis’ The Populist Explosion: How the Great Recession Transformed American and European Politics (Columbia Global Reports, 2016). The review argues for a return to early Frankfurt School Critical Theory to address some of the shortcomings of these studies.
The tripod of terrorism
(2017)
Violent attacks against innocent civilians occurring on an everyday and global basis have intensified the discourse on terrorism. However, like pornography, terrorism seems readily recognizable but hard to define. The designation is applied to the destructive acts of religious zealots, mentally unstable individuals, terror-inducing despots, separatist militia, and, at times, even legitimate freedom fighters. Ordinary language fails to define terrorism’s nosological circumference and is itself defiled in the process. While acknowledging this denotational conundrum, this paper will propose that the origins of the current mayhem by the radicalized few reside in three geopolitical realms. These include the long shadow of colonialism, the hypocrisy and violence of certain Western foreign policies, and some fundamental problems in the societies that form the crucible of such rage. As a result, ameliorative strategies need to be directed at (and require the collaboration of) all three parties at the root of this tragic and bloody scenario.
Bu çalışmada, sosyal bilimler alanında yeni olan ama gittikçe önemi artan sosyal sermaye kavramının Fromm düşüncesindeki yeri gösterilmeye çalışılmaktadır. Böylece, sosyal sermaye üzerine; henüz yeterli olmayan literatürün zenginliğinin oluşmasında mütevazı bir katkı yapmayı başarmak amaçlanmaktadır. Fromm, >sağlıklı toplum< analizini ortaya koyarken toplumun akıl sağlığının en önemli göstergelerinden birini, bu ilişki ve iletişim bağlarının varlığı ya da yokluğuna bağlamaktadır. Özellikle >yabancılaşma< kavramına yaptığı atıflar ve modern toplumlarda bireylerin ürettiklerine bizzat dahil olamamaları ile ortaya çıkan anomik durumun ürettiği iletişim sorunlarına değinir. Fromm’a göre, >sosyal sermaye< açısından değerlendirilebilecek ikinci husus da toplumu oluşturan bireylerin akıl sağlığını koruyan dini, vicdani ve ahlaki değerlerin varlığını sürdürerek bir dayanışma ve yardımlaşma duygusu üretmesidir. Buna göre sevgi, güven, dayanışma gibi iletişim biçimleri toplumun akıl sağlığını olumlu anlamda sosyal bir sermayeye evrilten dinamiklerdir.
Rock-A-Bye Baby
(2017)
Isu kebhinekaan atau keberagaman akhir-akhir ini diserukan kembali oleh orang-orang yang dianggap tokoh atau menokohkan diri dalam kehidupan masyarakat Indonesia. Pengangkatan kembali isu-isu tersebut bisa dimaklumi karena akhir-akhir ini tindakan-tindakan yang mengarah pada radikalisme muncul di berbagai tempat di Indonesia. Artinya, terdapatnya kelompok masyarakat yang anti kebhinekaan (tidak terang-terangan) itu pernah muncul pada masa-masa sebelumnya tetapi frekuensinya tidak sebanyak yang terjadi pada akhir-akhir ini. Bukan tidak mungkin gerakan-gerakan tersembunyi seperti itu membahayakan keutuhan negara. Tokoh panutan-kharismatis yang mengedepankan kebhinekaan demi keutuhan negara selalu dibutuhkan agar masyarakat Indonesia terbebas dari kekacauan yang disebabkan oleh sara (suku, agama dan ras).
How can some classical Freudian concepts such as defense, transference, infantile sexuality, and the role of the body ego and superego in the first year of life be applied to help the analyst working with parent–infant dyads? The case of a newborn that could not look at her mother, who did not feel empathy towards this child conceived as a result of an egg donation, was understood using Winnicott’s notion of early superego and the lack of libidinal pleasure. The notion of defenses towards primitive anxiety and the role of unconscious maternal functioning were helpful in helping the child as well as the parents to regulate their interactions.
La relación del hombre con el trabajo es una problemática transversal a la historia humana, la deformación que ha atravesado esta actividad en los modos de producción que el hombre ha creado, hacen del contexto un factor determinante que aqueja la vida del hombre. Las relaciones que se establecen en torno al trabajo han sido analizadas y cuestionadas por un sin número de autores sin embargo, la perspectiva de Erich Fromm consigue entablar un diálogo entre dos vertientes teóricas que favorecen este análisis, el Marxsismo y el Psicoanálisis, con el fin de generar una visión más amplia del ser humano y encontrar las soluciones apropiadas al problema de su existencia. En este trabajo se realiza una investigación teórica sobre estos fenómenos individuales y sociales, con el fin de determinar la relación que existe entre la alienación en el trabajo y la constitución de la neurosis como categoría clínica en el marco del sistema capitalista. En este recorrido teórico se encontró que la alienación es la base estructural que determina las condiciones que impone el sistema capitalista sobre el trabajo y sobre los vínculos humanos, dando lugar a que el individuo degenere en una de las patologías psíquicas más comunes en la modernidad, la neurosis.
