“…Alors que l’intégration économique progresse au sein de l’Union européenne, « une économie insulaire globale », concept lancé par certaines élites du monde des affaires de l’île, est-elle parallèlement en train de voir le jour ? …”

“…Publié en 1913, le Tableau politique de la France de l’Ouest d’André Siegfried s’est imposé comme un ouvrage fondateur de la sociologie électorale, de géographie électorale et plus globalement de l’étude de l’« opinion politique ». La figure elle-même d’André Siegfried est apparue comme majeure à la fois en science politique et en géographie. …”

“…The Nordic countries represent an interesting case study in media regulation globally, combining robust protections of press freedom with a significant level of regulation - reflecting the assumption that media are a social institution and not simply a private business. …”

“…Résolument ancrés dans leur contexte local et national, mais résonnant les uns avec les autres, des mouvements de démocratisation ont porté les espoirs d’une nouvelle génération globale. Les mouvements sociaux de ce début de siècle ne se résument pas aux grandes mobilisations pour la démocratie couvertes par les médias occidentaux. …”

“…Les contributions des uns et des autres sont agencées autour de quatre grands thèmes fédérateurs : (i) l’articulation entre la voix singulière de l’écrivain et les formes générales dont il dispose ; (ii) la détermination et la description des phénomènes linguistiques susceptibles de refléter cette articulation ; (iii) la pertinence de la notion de « langue littéraire » ; (iv) l’intégration de l’étude stylistique dans une théorie globale de l’œuvre littéraire et de sa réception. …”

“…Glover's timely project emphatically articulates Haiti's regional and global centrality, combining vital 'big picture' reflections on the field of postcolonial studies with elegant close-reading-based analyses of the philosophical perspective and creative practice of a distinctively Haitian literary phenomenon. …”

“…In probing the relationship between oil dependency and democracy in the context of an industrialized nation, Alberta Oil and the Decline of Democracy offers a crucial test of the "oil inhibits democracy" thesis that has hitherto been advanced in relation to oil-producing countries in the Global South. If reliance on oil production appears to undermine democratic participation and governance in Alberta, then what does the Alberta case suggest for the future of democracy in industrialized nations such as the United States and Australia, which are now in the process of exploiting their own substantial shale oil reserves? …”

“…Making central agreements is further limited by the growing importance of European policy and agreements in the Euro context with regard to government expenditure, and by advancing globalization and financialization. These developments and criticisms therefore lead to serious questions about the legitimacy and functionality of the Polder model. …”

“…In the manner of The Armchair Economist, The Undercover Economist, or Naked Economics, Osborne uses current examples to illustrate the principles that underlie tragedies like the Greek economy or the global market meltdown of 2008, and triumphs like the continuing dominance of Silicon Valley in the tech world or why New York City markets are stuffed with goods despite the difficulty in getting them there. …”

“…En France comme dans de nombreux autres pays, l'État est intervenu au cours de ce siècle pour limiter les éventuels « méfaits » de cette concurrence intermodale et favoriser une collaboration ou « coordination » entre les modes de transports. Cette politique « globale » se met en place au début des années 1930 alors que la motorisation des transports routiers et fluviaux et l'apparition des transports aériens exacerbent la concurrence avec les chemins de fer. …”

“…Nietzsche was a truly transdisciplinary thinker, one who never fit into his own nineteenth-century surroundings and who recognized himself as a "herald and precursor" of the future, of our globally-reticulated digital present. Perhaps not since Kittler has there been a study -- let alone an anthology -- that re-assesses and re-evaluates Nietzsche's thought in light of the technically mediated and machinic conditions of the human in the age of digital networks.Drawing on the first four years of conference-proceedings from the annual Nietzsche Workshop @ Western (NWW, Western University, Ontario), which culminated in the "New York NWW.IV": Cyber-Nietzsche: Tunnels, Tightropes, Net-&-Meshworks (held at the Center for Transformative Media, Parsons The New School for Design), The Digital Dionysus explores Nietzschean themes in light of the problems and questions of digitization, information and technical mediation, offering its readers the opportunity to consider Nietzsche's contemporary relevance in light of emerging theories in new media studies, political studies, critical aesthetics, the digital humanities and contemporary post-continental philosophy.Co-edited by Dan Mellamphy and Nandita Biswas Mellamphy (Western University, UWO) for the CTM Documents Initiative imprint (Center for Transformative Media, Parsons School of Design, The New School), the volume features essays and works by leading and emerging philosophers, artists, [h]activists, and political media theorists, including Babette Babich, R. …”
