No full textG. Lipovetsky: The Painless Ethics
No full textThe bachelor thesis follows and critically interprets the proposition about the development of ethics and morality in Le Crépuscule du devoir by Gilles Lipovetsky on the specific examples of the approaches towards ethics that are noted by author himself. The thesis clarifies in which cases is his philosophical and sociological diagnosis, analysis and prediction justified and where it is on the contrary problematic and why. His general proposition is that contemporary moral "boom" is actually a "shock" and not only a "comeback" or a "revitalization" of the traditional morality. According to him, it would be no exaggeration to say that contemporary morality is definitely leaving the traditional one behind. The ambition of the thesis is to understand previous periods of ethical thought, defined by Lipovetsky as religious and lay ethics, and also to clarify the character and typical manifestations of his "postmoral ethics of the third type" with neither religious nor lay basis in form of duty. The thesis analyses the tension and inner discrepancies of that "painless" ethics stated by Lipovetsky. The aim is also to justify the "applied ethics of responsibility" formulated by Lipovetsky, which is to be set in the period of "the twilight of duty"

Ética e religião em Gilles Lipovetsky: uma análise da obra A sociedade pós-moralista
No full textA presente dissertação expõe o pensamento de Gilles Lipovetsky, analisando de forma
específica a obra A sociedade pós-moralista, na qual o autor trata detalhadamente da questão
ética na contemporaneidade. No âmbito da tradição filosófica francesa, Lipovetsky propõe um
estudo de fenômenos sociais mais específicos, tendo como objeto central a sociedade
hipermoderna. Nesta sociedade determinada pelo consumo, a ética coloca-se sob novos
parâmetros. Na obra supracitada, o autor dedica-se a compreender os paradoxos que circulam
as discussões em torno da questão ética, constatando que uma ética do pós-dever, cujo
propósito se volta para a satisfação plena dos desejos subjetivos dos indivíduos nas mais
variadas ações, determina hoje as relações sociais dos indivíduos nas esferas sociais. A teoria
do autor a respeito da ética do pós-dever traz elementos significativos para uma melhor
compreensão da questão religiosa, sobretudo em sua dimensão ética. As contribuições do
autor apontam para a emergência de uma religião secularizada a gravitar no cenário social
dado, cujas características são expostas nesta dissertação. Ao contrapor as considerações de
Lipovetsky com as teorias de outros autores, é possível perceber a existência de pontos
convergentes e divergentes nas propostas éticas que eles apresentam. A análise de Lipovetsky
se mostra pertinente para a discussão de uma possível ética global, comum a todos os povosThe present dissertation exposes the thought of Gilles Lipovetsky by examining specifically his book The post-moralistic society, in which the author treats in detail the ethical issue in contemporaneity. Under the French philosophical tradition scope, Lipovetsky proposes a study of more specific social phenomenons, by having as central object the hypermodern society. In this society determined by consumption, the ethics puts itself under new parameters. In the book mentioned above, the author is dedicated to understanding the paradoxes that circulate the discussions around the ethical issue, he notes that an ethics of post-obligation, whose purposes is the full satisfaction of the subjective desires of individuals in the most variety of actions, today determines the social relations of individuals in the social spheres. The author's theory concerning to the ethics of post-obligation brings significant elements for a better understanding of the religious issue, especially in its ethical dimension. The contributions of the author pointed to the emergence of a secularized religion to gravitate in the given social setting, whose characteristics are exposed in this dissertation. By opposing the considerations of Lipovetsky with the theories of other authors, it is possible to realize the existence of convergent and divergent points in the ethical proposals that they present. Lipovetsky's analysis shows itself pertinent to the discussion concerning to the possibility of a global ethics, common to all peoplesCoordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superio
Pussy Riot as the Trickstar
No full textIn his article, Mark Lipovetsky analyses Pussy Riot’s punk-prayer and the public discussion following the event. The author situates Pussy Riot’s performance in the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour as the cultural return to and rebirth of the trickster trope – which was extremely powerful in the Soviet period but visibly declined in its cultural significance in post-Soviet times. At the background of this tradition, Pussy Riot represents a rare case of the trickstar (Marylyn Jurich), a female trickster, undermining not only socio-political but first and foremost the gender regime of the society, challenging sexism and gender repression. Analyzing Pussy Riot’s performance and its perception, Lipovetsky’s article argues that the Pussy Riot debate has revealed such flaws in the liberal discourse as the silent equation of moral values with religious doctrines; hierarchical, essentialist and, basically, pre-modern, understanding of culture (rejecting contemporary art for the lack of “harmony”); and, most importantly, the allegiance to patriarchal stereotypes. The shared values that are responsible for these flaws, appear not so different from the conservatives’ rage against “blasphemy” and the assault on the national “spiritual ties” (“dukhovnye skrepy”, to use Putin’s words); aggressive “defence” of “eternal” moral/religious values epitomized by the disgust towards contemporary art. The discourse triggered by Pussy Riot within the liberal intelligentsia reveal the hypocrisy of the liberal opposition, which supported “girls” only as the irritant to their enemies, while not so secretly despising them as silly manipulated puppets who should be physically punished for their shameful transgression. Furthermore, this debate laid bare the responsibility of neo-traditionalist ideology, shared by many representatives of liberal intelligentsia, for the Putin regime’s ideology
Two opinions about the near future (Hervé Juvin contra Gilles Lipovetsky)
No full textV posledním půlstoletí se stále naléhavěji ozývá otázka, zda se naše civilizace – a s ní možná i civilizace světová – neblíží svému konci. Svým způsobem na tuto otázku odpovídají i G. Lipovetsky a H. Juvin v knize Globalizovaný Západ, kterou vydali společně ve Francii v roce 2010. Zatímco Lipovetsky se snaží vybalancovat svou vizi postmoderního světa tak, aby vyústila v obraz společnosti, která nezapomíná na své (různorodé) tradice, Juvin akcentuje hrozbu globálního střetu. Oba se vyrovnávají hlavně s otázkou poměru ekonomiky a politiky a oba svým způsobem kritizují nadvládu ekonomiky nad politikou. Je přitom třeba podotknout, že jejich záběr je časově poněkud skromnější než u takových autorů jako je např. Spengler nebo Toynbee, případně u těch autorů, kteří vycházejí z představy ekologické katastrofy, nicméně právě proto mohou posloužit jako materiál ke srovnání s názory svých předchůdců i současníků na společnost, která zřejmě směřuje k velkým změnám. V této souvislosti autorka jejich názory konfrontuje s myšlenkami jejich předchůdců i současníků (Feyerabend, Fukuyama, Huntington, Popper aj.) a snaží se najít shody a rozdíly.In the last fifty years, we have repeatedly been confronted with the pressing question of whether our civilization, and perhaps the whole civilization, is coming to an end. G. Lipovetsky and H. Juvin tackle this question in their own ways in the book The Globalized West, which they published together in France in 2010. While Lipovetsky attempts to provide a balanced view of the postmodern world, which results in a picture of a society that does not abandon its (various) traditions, Juvin emphasises the threat of global confrontation. Both authors primarily deal with the question of the relationship between economics and politics and both criticize in their own ways the dominance of economics over politics. It must be mentioned that their focus is a bit narrower than that of authors such as Spengler or Toynbee, or authors building on the idea of an ecological catastrophe. However, this provides a convenient material for a comparison with their predecessors' and contemporaries' views on a society that is obviously facing great changes. The author of this paper confronts their views with the views of their predecessors and contemporaries (Feyerabend, Fukuyama, Huntington, Popper, etc.) and attempts to find similarities and differences
La educación entre la posmodernidad globalizada y la sociedad seductora según G. Lipovetsky
No full textResumen: El ensayo presenta los síntomas y consecuencias de la globalización y las reiteradas revoluciones individualistas desde la perspectiva de G. Lipovetsky. En su cruda descripción de la situación posmoderna en los países desarrollados, y la importancia del individualismo light, el autor no deja de percibir las dificultades que esto presenta para el proceso educativo. Pero, al mismo tiempo, vislumbra un rayo de esperanza para encontrar una salida que desplace la apatía ante el vacío de la abundancia en unos países, mientras se sufre en otros. La necesidad de la educación es inevitable y es posible pensar en un horizonte más prometedor para toda la humanidad.Abstract: This essay presents the symptoms and consequences of globalization and the repeated individualistic revolutions, from the perspective of G. Lipovetsky.

But, at the same time, he foresees a ray of hope for to find a solution that may shift apathy before the void of abundance in some countries, while suffering in others. The need for education is inevitable and it is possible to think of a more promising horizon for all humanity
Sobre identidades culturais e a experiência da cultura-mundo: aproximações e divergências entre stuart hall e gilles lipovetsky / On cultural identities and the world-culture experience: approaches and divergences between stuart hall and gilles lipovetsky
No full textNowadays, much has been discussed about the search for identity. After all, are we experiencing an indemnity crisis or not? It has always been sought to stabilize the identity of the subjects, to leave it fixed, stable and permanent. However, for several scholars, as is the case with Stuart Hall, it is currently out of place and fragmented. There is a constant disruption, caused by the constant changes that occur in postmodernity, the result of globalization, which breaks the boundaries, with technological advances. However, Lipovetsky and Serroy affirm that the era of the hypermodern is lived, and in it the world is organized through four poles, responsible for drawing the physiognomy of the new times, they are: hypercapitalism, hyper-technology, hyperindividualism and hyperconsumption . Consequently, these organizing principles gave birth to an unprecedented world-culture, which results in a new cultural relationship with the world. Thus, cultural issues start to gain importance and new weight, since they start to affect peoples' identity. In this work, we will present and discuss the similarities and differences in the work of two contemporary thinkers, with regard to the subject's identity in contemporary times, highlighting the influences and events that intervene in the construction of the current identity of individuals. It is a qualitative bibliographic research, confronting and exposing the ideas presented in the works: The world-culture: response to a disoriented society by Lipovetsky and Serroy (2011) and Cultural Identity in the Post-Modernity of the author Stuart Hall (2006).
Capitalismo y Estética en la obra de Gilles Lipovetsky.
No full textEstudio semi-recopilatorio de la estética de Gilles Lipovetsky en la que vamos a tratar los diferentes análisis históricos de la producción estética en sus principales obras. El objetivo de éste es mostrar progresivamente cómo los valores y la producción estética han dado a luz la condición transestética hipermoderna. La cual, según el autor francés, nace directamente de las vicisitudes del capitalismo artístico, ya que, aunque éste tenga sus raíces en los dispositivos estéticos que también se va a tratar en este trabajo como son la moda y el arte, la realidad es que la transformación de nuestra realidad ha obedecido en última instancia a los intereses del mercado. Intereses del mercado que irán de la mano de los valores individualistas, hedonistas, del gusto por lo superficial que instaurará, sobre todo, la moda en la sociedad moderna.
Así pues, nos dirigiremos a una obra que considera el proyecto capitalista liberal como un avance en la historia de la humanidad, tratando de ser lo más fiel posible a la misma y poniendo en valor la originalidad y la distinción de su discurso, pero al mismo tiempo destapando aquellos puntos en los que sus interpretaciones se muestren excesivamente mediatizadas por su perspectiva liberal.Semi-compilation study of the Gilles Lipovetsky aesthetics in which we will deal with the different historical analyzes of aesthetic production that the autor deals with in his main works. The objective of this is to progressively show how values and aesthetic production have given birth to the hypermodern transesthetic condition. This condition, according to the French author, arises directly from the vicissitudes of artistic capitalism, although it has its roots in the aesthetic devices that will also be dealt with in this work such as fashion and art, the reality is that the transformation of our reality has ultimately obeyed the interests of the market. This market interests will go hand in hand with individualistic, hedonistic values, a taste for the superficial that will be established, above all, by fashion in modern society.
Thus, we will turn to a work that considers the liberal capitalist project as an advance in the history of humanity, trying to be as faithful as possible to it and highlighting the originality and distinction of its discourse, but at the same time, uncovering those points in which his interpretations are excessively mediated by his liberal perspective.Universidad de Sevilla.

Revisión de la segunda fase de «capitalismo artístico» del sociólogo Gilles Lipovetsky (1950-1980). Antecedentes y desarrollo de la democratización y propagación de la llamada «sociedad de la abundancia», y esbozo de la tercera fase de «capitalismo artístico»
No full textThis article aims to outline sociologist Gilles Lipovetsky’s views the views of sociologist Gilles Lipovetsky on the so-called «second phase of cultural capitalism», which occurs. The historical moment between the 1950s and the 1980s and is characterized by the spread of mass consumption and the expansion of cultural industries. The antecedents of this stage, the «first phase of cultural capitalism» date back to 1850 and last until the Second World War. We will use this starting point, the end of the first phase of cultural capitalism, to review the events that gave rise to the spread and democratization of consumption. We will also review the main postulates of the «third phase of cultural capitalism», which is still in force today.El presente artículo pretende esbozar los planteamientos del sociólogo Gilles Lipovetsky en torno a la denominada «segunda fase de capitalismo cultural». El momento histórico, fechado entre la década de los cincuenta y los años ochenta, se caracteriza por la propagación del con- sumo de masas y la expansión de las industrias culturales. Los antecedentes de esta etapa, la «primera fase de capitalismo cultural », se remontan a 1850 y se extienden hasta la segunda guerra mundial. Desde esta primera etapa, revisaremos los hechos que dieron lugar a la pro- pagación y democratización del consumo, para finalmente analizar los principales postulados de la «tercera fase de capitalismo cultural», vigentes hasta nuestros tiempos
