    “Actors Simply Explode”: To Act in the Cinema of Jean-Marie Straub and Danièle Huillet

    No full text
    This essay examines the political significance of Jean-Marie Straub and Danièle Huillet's work with actors in their cinema practice. Straub and Huillet's acting methodology is an essential aspect of their cinema and its struggle to undo militaristic, patriarchal, and capitalist modes of communication. The author identifies and analyzes key characteristics of this methodology, using them to mount a critique of the normative function of the amateur or nonprofessional actor in art cinema and socially committed cinemas. The creation of a generative encounter between actors and texts, a vocal training that works against the dictates of standard punctuation, and the organization of a discipline to act are the main components of a methodology that refuses to obey a specific martial order of reading, speaking, and acting. Attending to Straub and Huillet's comments on their methods, the essay envisages other resonances that such acting can have in thinking about freedom and constraint within the political and economic spheres of Western culture

    No full text
    In this paper we introduce a progressive income tax in the shirking model with union bargaining presented by in Altenburg and Straub (2002). Indeed, we differentiate taxation on employees and employers for the fiscal policy analysis. The main results show that it is possible, with a constant revenue reform, to enhance employment by shifting the tax imposition towards lower firm taxation. And, that it is crucial to consider a proportional or progressive taxation on labour income in order to be able to analyse the effect on unemployment for a constant replacement rate.Labour taxation, union bargaining, efficiency wages
